Troubleshooting
Rashguard feels too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Rashguards are designed to fit snugly, but if it's uncomfortably restrictive, consider trying a size up.
Skin irritation after use
Make sure the garment is thoroughly rinsed after each use to remove any salt or sand residue. Ensure the fabric is completely dry before storing.
Fabric losing elasticity
Avoid high temperatures, bleach, and fabric softeners during washing and drying, as these can damage the fabric's stretch.
