Its key benefit is the combination of soft, breathable 100% cotton fabric with built-in UPF protection, offering both comfort and sun safety.

FAQs
What is BCI cotton?
BCI stands for Better Cotton Initiative. It means the cotton used is sourced through more sustainable farming practices that aim to reduce water usage, pesticide use, and improve farmer livelihoods.
How effective is the UPF protection?
The UPF rating indicates the level of ultraviolet radiation protection the fabric offers. Specific UPF ratings are not provided in the product details, but it offers a measure of protection against UV rays.
Is this top suitable for very hot weather?
Yes, the 100% cotton fabric is breathable and the sleeveless design makes it suitable for warm weather.
Can I wear this for sports?
It is suitable for light activities like yoga or walking due to its comfort and breathability. For high-intensity sports, specialized athletic wear might be more appropriate.
What size should I order?

How do I care for the ribbed neckline?
The ribbed neckline is designed to be durable. Following the standard washing and drying instructions, especially avoiding excessive heat, will help maintain its shape and elasticity.
Troubleshooting
Shrinking after washing
Ensure you are washing in cold water and air drying or tumble drying on a very low heat setting. Avoid high heat, which can cause cotton to shrink.
Color fading
Wash the garment inside out with similar colors. Use a mild detergent and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight after washing.
Fabric pilling
Gentle washing and air drying can help minimize pilling. Avoid abrasive surfaces and washing with items that have zippers or rough textures.
