Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this provide protection against board rash?

Yes, the smooth polyester fabric and flat-locked seams act as a barrier between the skin and the surfboard, significantly reducing the risk of irritation.

Can this be worn in a swimming pool?

Yes, it is suitable for pools, but it is important to rinse it thoroughly with fresh water afterward to remove chlorine, which can degrade the elastic fibers.

Is the material waterproof?

The material is not waterproof; it is designed to be breathable and quick-drying, allowing water to pass through while protecting the skin from UV rays.

Does the UPF protection wash out?

The UPF rating is built into the fabric weave. While it will last for many wears, harsh detergents and excessive heat can diminish its effectiveness over a long period.

What is the best way to store the rash vest?

Store it folded or on a hanger in a cool, dry place once it is completely dry.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels tight or restrictive

Ensure the garment is correctly oriented with the logo on the right shoulder and all seams aligned properly.

Sand trapped inside the fabric

Rinse the garment thoroughly in fresh water and gently stretch the fabric while submerged to allow trapped sand to wash away.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-level UPF 50+ sun protection
  • Anti-chafe construction with no underarm seams
  • Durable flat-locked stitching
  • Ergonomic fit designed for watersports

Cons

  • Polyester material can wear out if not rinsed properly
  • Specific sizing (5-6) limits use for growing children
  • Short sleeves provide less arm coverage than long-sleeve alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Saltrock Holidaze Rash Vest lasts for many beach trips, follow these care instructions:

  1. Rinse Immediately: After every use in the ocean or a pool, rinse the vest thoroughly with fresh, cool water to remove salt or chlorine.
  2. Hand Wash: Use a mild detergent if necessary, but avoid heavy machine cycles or harsh chemicals that can break down the fabric's UV-blocking properties.
  3. Air Dry: Always hang to dry in the shade. Direct sunlight can fade the flower print and degrade the polyester fibers over time.
  4. Avoid Rough Surfaces: Try to avoid sitting on rough concrete or sharp rocks, as the technical fabric can snag.
