FAQs

What does UPF40+ mean?

UPF40+ means the fabric provides a high level of protection against ultraviolet (UV) radiation. It allows only 1/40th (or less) of the UV radiation to pass through, helping to protect the skin from sunburn.

How is this rash top different from a regular t-shirt?

This rash top is specifically designed for water use. It uses a quick-drying, chlorine-resistant fabric (EnduraBrite) with UPF40+ sun protection, features a design optimized for swimming comfort, and includes a zip back for easy changing, unlike a standard t-shirt.

Can this rash top be worn without a swimsuit underneath?

Yes, it can be worn on its own for sun protection and comfort. However, it is also designed to be comfortable when worn over a swimsuit if preferred.

How do I ensure the best fit for my child?

We recommend consulting the Speedo size guide, which provides measurements for chest, waist, and height to match with the UK size (e.g., size 4). Children's body shapes can vary, so checking measurements is key.

Is this rash top suitable for sensitive skin?

The smooth, quick-drying fabric and UPF protection can be beneficial for sensitive skin by reducing irritation from sun exposure and prolonged wetness. Always monitor for any specific sensitivities.

What is EnduraBrite fabric?

EnduraBrite is a fabric technology developed by Speedo that offers higher chlorine resistance compared to standard swimwear materials. This results in excellent colour performance and a fit that lasts longer, even with regular use in chlorinated pools.

How should I clean the rash top to prevent damage?

Always rinse the rash top in fresh water immediately after use. Hand wash gently with mild soap, do not soak, wring, or tumble dry. Dry flat in the shade. Avoid bleach and harsh detergents.

Troubleshooting

Rash top doesn't seem to fit as expected.

Refer to the Speedo size chart to ensure the correct UK size (e.g., size 4) has been selected. Children's sizing can vary between brands.

Color fading after a few uses.

Ensure the rash top is rinsed in fresh water immediately after each use. Follow hand washing instructions and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying. The EnduraBrite fabric is designed for colorfastness, but proper care is essential.

Zip is difficult to use.

Ensure the fabric around the zip is clear before pulling. If the zip feels stiff, try gently lubricating the teeth with a small amount of clear wax or a specialized zip lubricant. Rinse the zip area in fresh water after pool or sea use.

Fabric feels less stretchy over time.

This can sometimes occur with repeated washing and chlorine exposure. Ensure you are hand washing with mild soap and avoiding high heat drying. The CREORA® HighClo™ technology helps maintain stretch, but proper care maximizes its effect.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the quality and longevity of your Speedo rash top, please follow these care instructions:

  1. Rinse Immediately: After each use, rinse the garment thoroughly in cold, fresh water to remove chlorine, salt, and sand.

  3. Do Not Soak: Do not leave the garment to soak for extended periods.
  4. Do Not Wring: Gently squeeze out excess water.
  5. Dry Flat: Lay the garment flat to dry in the shade. Avoid direct sunlight, as this can fade colors and degrade the fabric.

  7. Avoid Rough Surfaces: Be mindful of abrasive surfaces that could snag the fabric.
