FAQs

Does this rash vest offer genuine sun protection?

Yes, it features 50+ UPF rating, which blocks a significant amount of UVA and UVB radiation.

Can I wear this in a chlorinated pool?

Yes, the fabric is specifically engineered to be chlorine resistant, making it suitable for pool use.

Will this vest stretch out over time?

The garment is specifically designed to maintain its shape and resist stretching, even after extensive water exposure.

Should I size up or down?

Rash vests are designed to fit snugly to ensure comfort and effectiveness; choose your standard size for the intended athletic fit.

How should I dry the vest?

Always air dry the garment in the shade. Do not tumble dry, as the heat can damage the fabric fibers.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels heavy or soggy after use

Ensure the vest is wrung out gently and hung in a breezy area; avoid wringing too forcefully to prevent structural damage.

Visible salt build-up on the fabric

Soak the vest in cool fresh water for 15-20 minutes to dissolve salt crystals before rinsing and air drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

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

  1. Rinsing: Always rinse the garment with fresh, cold water immediately after swimming in salt or chlorinated water to remove chemical residues.
  2. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with like colors using mild detergent. Avoid bleach or heavy-duty chemical additives.
  3. Drying: Hang the vest to dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight during the drying process to prevent potential UV-induced fading or fiber degradation.
  4. Storage: Ensure the vest is completely dry before folding or storing it in a dark, dry place to prevent mildew growth.
