Product Information

Full details

This Craghoppers NosiLife SolarShield+ Jersey is designed for adult males seeking advanced sun protection and comfort during outdoor activities. Its key benefit is providing UPF 50+ sun protection combined with NosiLife insect repellent technology, all within a quick-drying, easy-care fabric made from recycled polyester. A potential caveat is its specific focus on sun and insect protection, which might be less relevant for casual indoor use.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is NosiLife technology?

NosiLife is Craghoppers' permanent insect repellent treatment woven into the fabric. It helps to repel mosquitoes, midges, and other biting insects, providing protection for the lifetime of the garment.

How effective is the UPF 50+ protection?

UPF 50+ provides excellent protection by blocking over 98% of harmful UV rays, significantly reducing the risk of sun damage and sunburn.

Is the NosiLife treatment safe for skin contact?

Yes, the NosiLife treatment is odorless, colorless, and has been developed to be safe for all skin types. It is permanently incorporated into the fabric.

Can this jersey be worn in cold weather?

While the jersey offers protection, it is primarily designed for warmer conditions due to its quick-drying and breathable properties. For cold weather, it would serve best as a base layer.

What does 'easy care' mean for this product?

Easy care means the fabric is designed to be low-maintenance, resisting wrinkles and drying quickly, making it ideal for travel or frequent use without extensive care.

How do I ensure the longest life for the SolarShield+ and NosiLife treatments?

Follow the recommended washing instructions carefully, avoid harsh detergents and fabric softeners, and do not use bleach. Gentle washing and appropriate drying will help preserve the fabric's performance features.

What is the 'UV reactive print'?

The UV reactive print on the sleeve is a design element that becomes more visible or changes appearance when exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light, such as direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Product label is unclear regarding wash temperature.

Always refer to the garment's internal care label for the most accurate washing instructions. A general guideline for this type of fabric is a 30°C (86°F) gentle cycle.

UV reactive print is not visible.

Ensure the garment is exposed to direct sunlight or a strong UV light source. The print's visibility is dependent on the intensity of UV radiation.

Fabric feels stiff after washing.

Avoid using fabric softeners, which can impact the performance treatments. If stiffness persists, try a very low heat tumble dry or ensure the garment is fully air-dried away from direct heat.

Noticeable odor after wear, despite washing.

Ensure the garment is washed thoroughly with a mild detergent and rinsed well. For persistent odors, a vinegar rinse (1 part white vinegar to 4 parts water) before the main wash cycle can help neutralize smells.
