No, this is a sun-protection garment. It is not designed to provide thermal insulation for cold water.
Yes, but be aware that high concentrations of chlorine can degrade the fabric faster than fresh or salt water. Rinse thoroughly after use.
The high-quality polyamide blend is designed to be opaque, even when wet, ensuring full coverage.
Hand wash or gentle machine wash in cold water using a mild detergent, and always air dry in the shade.
The vest is designed to be a 'performance fit,' which is snug. If you prefer a looser feel, you may consider sizing up, though this may reduce sun protection effectiveness.
Ensure you are rinsing the garment with fresh water and drying it away from direct sunlight, which can break down elastane over time.
Ensure the vest is worn directly against the skin without undergarments to allow the compression fit to function correctly and prevent bunching.
Always wash inside out in cold water and avoid contact with rough surfaces like concrete or sharp reef edges.
To ensure the longevity of your rash vest, proper care is essential. Always rinse the garment thoroughly with fresh water immediately after exposure to salt water or chlorine to prevent fabric degradation. Avoid wringing out the vest; instead, lay it flat or hang it in a shaded area to air dry. Do not tumble dry, bleach, or iron, as high heat can damage the elastane fibers. Because the fit is designed to be close to the body, ensure you consult a standard size chart to select the correct fit, as the stretch properties cannot compensate for incorrect sizing.
