FAQs

What is UPF 50+ protection?

UPF 50+ stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor, indicating that the fabric blocks over 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays. It signifies excellent protection for your skin.

Is this rash vest suitable for swimming laps?

While comfortable, the loose fit is designed more for water sports and casual wear than for competitive swimming where a more hydrodynamic, tighter fit is preferred.

How do I know if this is the right size for me?

Refer to the product sizing chart. This vest has a loose fit, so if you prefer a snugger feel, you might consider sizing down.

Can this rash vest be worn for surfing?

Yes, it is well-suited for surfing due to its UV protection, durable fabric, and freedom of movement provided by the loose fit.

What is the difference between this and a wetsuit?

This rash vest provides UV protection and a light layer against minor abrasions. It does not offer thermal insulation like a wetsuit.

How should I care for the recycled fabric?

Rinse with cold fresh water after use, hand wash with mild detergent, and dry flat in the shade. Avoid harsh chemicals and high heat.

Troubleshooting

Rash vest feels too loose

This is intentional for a relaxed fit. For a tighter fit, consider sizing down or layering over a snug-fitting swimsuit.

Color fading

Rinse immediately after use, wash in cold water with mild detergent, and dry in the shade to preserve color vibrancy.

Fabric feels stiff after drying

Ensure all salt and chlorine residue is thoroughly rinsed out. A gentle rinse and drying in the shade should help maintain fabric softness.
