Product Information

Full details

The Quiksilver Everyday Short Sleeve UV Protect Rash Vest is designed for surfers, swimmers, and beachgoers who require reliable sun protection and lasting durability in aquatic environments. Its primary benefit is the combination of 50+ UPF protection and moisture-wicking technology, which keeps the wearer protected from harmful rays while maintaining comfort; however, users should note that the polyester material provides a snug, athletic fit typical of performance gear which may not suit those preferring a loose, casual shirt style.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this rash vest provide sun protection?

Yes, it features 50+ UPF sun protection to block harmful UV rays.

Can I wear this in a chlorinated swimming pool?

Yes, the fabric is specifically engineered to be chlorine-resistant for improved durability.

How does the fit compare to a standard t-shirt?

This vest is designed with an athletic, snug fit to remain streamlined in the water. It will fit much tighter than a casual cotton t-shirt.

Is the material recycled?

Yes, this garment is made from recycled yarn, supporting a more sustainable production process.

Will this vest keep me dry?

It features moisture-wicking technology to pull sweat and water away from the skin, though it is designed for water use and will get wet during activities.

How do I choose the right size?

We recommend following standard athletic sizing; if you prefer a less compressed feel, you may consider sizing up, though the performance benefits are best achieved with a snug fit.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels loose after repeated use

Ensure you are rinsing the garment thoroughly after each use; salt and chlorine buildup can degrade the elastic properties of the polyester fibers.

Visible signs of piling or surface wear

Avoid contact with abrasive surfaces like rough concrete or sharp rocks when sitting or resting, as the performance fabric can snag.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Quiksilver rash vest, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Rinse After Use: Always rinse the vest in fresh, cool water immediately after use in saltwater or a pool to remove salt, sand, and chlorine residues.
  2. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid using harsh detergents or fabric softeners, as these can compromise the UV-protectant coatings.
  3. Drying: Hang the vest to dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Never tumble dry or iron the vest, as high heat can damage the polyester fibers and elastic properties of the fabric.
  4. Storage: Store the vest flat or on a hanger once completely dry. Avoid leaving it in direct sunlight for extended periods when not in use to prevent color fading.
