FAQs

How long does the NosiLife insect repellent last?

The NosiLife treatment is incorporated into the fabric's fibers and is designed to last for the expected lifetime of the garment, without the need for reapplication.

Is the UPF 50+ protection permanent?

Yes, the UPF 50+ protection is a property of the fabric itself and does not diminish with washing or wear, provided the garment is maintained correctly.

Can I wear this shirt in humid weather?

Absolutely. The moisture-wicking fabric and wicking mesh collar are specifically designed to help keep you cool and dry in humid conditions.

How should I wash the shirt to maintain its properties?

Machine wash at 30°C with similar colors. Avoid bleach. Tumble dry on low or line dry. Iron on a low setting if needed. This ensures the longevity of the fabric and its treatments.

What is the purpose of the modesty button?

The modesty button is a small detail designed to help prevent the shirt from gaping open at the bust area, providing a more secure and comfortable fit.

Is this shirt suitable for sensitive skin?

The NosiLife treatment is odorless and integrated into the fabric. While generally well-tolerated, individuals with extreme sensitivities should always test new garments or consult product specifics.

Troubleshooting

Shirt feels damp after activity.

Ensure the moisture-wicking properties are not hindered. Check that the garment is not too tight, which can restrict airflow. For intense activity, consider layers underneath that also wick moisture.

Insect repellent effectiveness seems reduced.

The NosiLife treatment is permanent and does not require reapplication. If you suspect reduced effectiveness after prolonged use, ensure the garment is clean and has been cared for according to instructions. Effectiveness is generally maintained over the product's lifespan.

Gapping at the bust area.

Utilize the integrated modesty button to secure the fabric and prevent unwanted gaps. Ensure the correct size is being worn.
