Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this provide full sun protection?

It provides UPF 50+ protection for the areas covered by the fabric. Always apply sunscreen to exposed areas like the neck, arms, and legs.

Can this be worn in a swimming pool?

Yes, it is suitable for both salt water and chlorinated pools, though you should rinse it with fresh water after each session to prevent chlorine damage.

Is it machine washable?

It is recommended to hand wash in cold water to preserve the elastic fibers and the protective coating of the fabric.

What does the paddle zone mean?

It refers to the specific cut and seam placement of the garment that allows for maximum shoulder movement without fabric tension.

Is the material waterproof?

The material is designed to be quick-drying and breathable for water sports, rather than waterproof.

Troubleshooting

The vest feels too tight

Rash vests are designed to fit snugly to minimize drag and provide sun protection. Ensure it is pulled smooth over the skin; if it restricts breathing, consider sizing up.

Signs of fabric fraying

Check if the vest has been in contact with rough surfaces like concrete or velcro straps, which can snag polyester fabric. Hand wash gently to prevent further damage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This garment is designed for a snug fit to remain effective in the water; choose your child's standard size for the best performance. To ensure the longevity of the UPF protection and fabric elasticity: 1. Rinse thoroughly with fresh, cold water immediately after every use in salt or chlorinated water. 2. Do not wring the vest; gently squeeze out excess water. 3. Air dry in the shade, avoiding direct sunlight which can degrade synthetic fibers over time. 4. Avoid contact with harsh chemicals or abrasive surfaces like rough pool edges.
