The Ripcurl Streamline UPF Short Sleeve Rash Vest is an essential piece of equipment for surfers, swimmers, and beachgoers who spend extended time under the sun. It offers superior UPF 50+ UV protection and a comfortable loose-fit design that allows for maximum airflow and mobility in the water. While it provides excellent protection against the sun and minor abrasions, users should note that the loose fit is designed for comfort rather than the compression-style fit found in traditional tight-fitting rash guards.

Yes, it is designed for surfing, though it features a loose fit which some surfers may find creates more drag than a traditional compression rash vest.
While the vest covers the torso, it is primarily designed for UV protection. It is not specifically rated for protection against jellyfish stings.
Hand wash in cold fresh water after use. Do not use bleach or tumble dry.
UPF 50+ indicates that the fabric allows less than 2% of UV radiation to pass through, offering excellent protection against the sun.
Yes, it features four-way stretch polyester, which allows for unrestricted movement in all directions.
No, this model features a loose-fit design for enhanced comfort and airflow.
The loose-fit style is designed for breathability but can hold more water than tight-fitting gear. Ensure you are using it for recreational activities rather than high-performance competitive swimming.
Always turn the vest inside out when washing and avoid scrubbing the graphic area directly to maintain the longevity of the transfer print.
To ensure the longevity of your Rash Vest, always rinse the garment in fresh, cold water immediately after each use to remove salt, chlorine, and sand. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach, which can compromise the integrity of the fabric and the UPF protection rating. When drying, avoid direct, prolonged exposure to intense sunlight; instead, hang the vest in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Do not iron or dry clean the garment, as the heat can damage the synthetic fibers and the heat-transfer graphics.
