FAQs

Does this vest provide actual sun protection?

Yes, it is rated UPF50+, meaning it blocks 98% of the sun's UV rays from reaching the skin covered by the fabric.

Can I use this for swimming in a pool?

Yes, it is suitable for pools, but be sure to rinse it thoroughly with fresh water afterward to remove chlorine, which can degrade the fabric.

How should I wash this garment?

Hand wash in cold water using a mild detergent and air dry in the shade.

Is the fabric quick-drying?

Yes, the polyester construction is moisture-wicking and designed to dry quickly after you leave the water.

Does the sizing run true to size?

It is designed as a performance fit. If you prefer a looser feel, you may want to consider your standard sizing but acknowledge it is intended to be form-fitting.

Troubleshooting

Vest feels too tight when putting on

Polyester performance wear is designed for a compression fit; ensure the garment is fully dry before attempting to pull it on, as wet fabric is harder to manipulate.

Vest rides up during use

Ensure you have utilized the hem loop feature to secure the vest to your boardshorts.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-level UPF50+ sun protection
  • Seamless underarm design prevents chafing
  • Includes boardshort attachment loop
  • Ergonomic fit allows for easy movement

Cons

  • Polyester fit may feel snug for some users
  • Specific care required to maintain UV rating
  • Limited to water-based activities

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To use the garment effectively, pull it on over your head and ensure the fabric is smoothed out across the torso. If you are wearing boardshorts, thread the hem loop through the internal tie or button closure of your shorts before securing them. To maximize the lifespan of the garment, always rinse it in fresh, cold water immediately after exposure to saltwater or chlorine. Hang it to dry in the shade, avoiding direct sunlight which can degrade the elastic properties of the fabric over time. Do not use bleach or tumble dry.
