FAQs

What does UPF 50+ mean?

UPF 50+ means the fabric blocks over 98% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays (both UVA and UVB), providing excellent sun protection.

How effective is the moisture-wicking feature?

The Polyester and Elastane blend is designed to pull moisture away from the skin to the fabric's surface, where it can evaporate, keeping you drier and more comfortable during activity.

Is this shirt suitable for everyday casual wear?

Yes, its loose fit and comfortable fabric make it suitable for casual wear, though its primary design features lean towards active and water-sport use.

Can I wear this shirt in a chlorinated swimming pool?

Yes, the shirt is chlorine resistant, meaning it's designed to withstand exposure to pool chemicals without significant degradation.

What is the benefit of the fabric being 'solution dyed'?

Solution dyeing involves coloring the synthetic fibers before they are extruded into yarn. This method uses less water and energy compared to traditional dyeing and often results in better colorfastness.

How do I wash and care for this t-shirt?

Machine wash cold with like colors, use non-chlorine bleach if needed, and tumble dry low or hang dry. Avoid high heat and dry cleaning to preserve fabric properties.

What does 'recycled yarn' mean for the product?

It means the fabric is made from materials that have been recycled, contributing to environmental sustainability. It is also designed to be durable and not stretch out easily.

Troubleshooting

T-shirt feels tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the Quiksilver size chart. This model features a loose fit; if a more snug fit is desired, consider a different style or size down cautiously.

Reduced sun protection after multiple washes.

Follow the care instructions precisely, especially regarding bleach and high heat drying, which can degrade UPF protective qualities. Avoid harsh detergents.

Fabric retains moisture or feels clammy.

Ensure the garment is not overly worn or damaged. Excessive pilling or wear can sometimes affect moisture-wicking performance. Wash with like colors and avoid fabric softeners.

Color fading over time.

While solution-dyed, prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight and chemicals can impact color. Washing inside out with cold water and line drying in the shade can help preserve color vibrancy.
