FAQs

What is UPF 50+?

UPF 50+ means the fabric blocks at least 98% of the sun's ultraviolet rays (both UVA and UVB), offering excellent protection against sun damage.

What is the primary material of this rash vest?

The rash vest is made from a soft, resistant, recycled stretch fabric composed of 85% Polyester and 15% Elastane.

Can I wear this rash vest for sports other than swimming?

Yes, this rash vest is suitable for various water sports like surfing, paddleboarding, kayaking, and snorkeling, providing both UV protection and some warmth.

How do I ensure the best fit?

This is a fitted rash vest. Refer to the sizing chart for accurate measurements. If you prefer a more relaxed fit, consider ordering one size larger than you typically would.

How should I care for the rash vest to prolong its life?

Rinse with cold, fresh water after each use, hand wash in cold water with mild soap, and dry in the shade. Avoid bleach, soaking, wringing, and ironing.

Is the front zip functional for ventilation?

Yes, the full front zip is functional and allows for easy on/off as well as adjustable ventilation to suit changing temperature and activity levels.

Does the recycled fabric affect the performance?

No, the recycled stretch fabric is designed to be soft, resistant, and maintain performance characteristics comparable to non-recycled materials, while offering environmental benefits.

Troubleshooting

Rash vest feels too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If a looser fit is desired, consider ordering one size up, as this is a fitted garment.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently rinse the zipper area with fresh water to remove any salt or sand. Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Lubricate with a silicone-based lubricant if necessary, following manufacturer instructions for apparel zippers.

Fading of color

Rinse immediately after use, wash in cold water with mild soap, and always dry in the shade. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight when not in use.

Material feels less stretchy over time

Avoid using harsh detergents, bleach, or high heat for washing and drying. Proper rinsing and air drying in the shade will help maintain fabric elasticity.
