FAQs

Can I wear this for swimming in a pool?

Yes, but be aware that high levels of chlorine may degrade the spandex over time. Be sure to rinse it thoroughly with fresh water immediately after use.

Is the material waterproof?

No, this is a surf tee designed to be breathable and quick-drying while wet, not a waterproof shell.

Does it provide UPF protection?

While the fabric provides a significant physical barrier against the sun, it is primarily designed as a protective surf layer.

How should I store this when not in use?

Store it folded or on a wide-shouldered hanger in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Will the logo peel off?

The logo is screen-printed for durability. To maintain it, avoid ironing directly over the print and avoid using abrasive cleaning brushes.

Troubleshooting

Garment riding up during surfing

Ensure the front elastic loop is securely fastened to your boardshort drawstring.

Stiffness after drying

This is common with recycled polyester; a quick rinse in fresh water or light agitation will return the fabric to its natural flexibility.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the fabric and the elasticity of the spandex, follow these care instructions:

  1. Rinse Immediately: Always rinse the garment thoroughly with fresh, cool water immediately after use in salt water or chlorine.
  2. Avoid Wringing: Do not wring out the garment; instead, gently press excess water out to maintain the structural integrity of the spandex fibers.
  3. Dry in Shade: Hang the garment to dry in a shaded area. Prolonged direct sunlight can degrade the fabric and fade the screen-printed logo.
  4. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these will break down the recycled polyester and spandex blend.
