The RIP CURL Waves Short Sleeve Rash Vest is an essential garment for surfers and swimmers who require reliable sun protection without sacrificing mobility. Engineered with high-quality, quick-dry polyester, this vest offers UPF 50 sun defense and a performance-oriented fit that stays comfortable during long sessions in the water. While it excels at protecting against UV rays and board friction, users should note that as a performance-fit garment, it is designed to sit snugly against the body for optimal hydrodynamic efficiency.

UPF 50 stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor 50, which indicates the fabric blocks 98% of the sun's UVA and UVB rays.
Yes, it is excellent for snorkeling as it protects your back and shoulders from sunburn while you are floating on the surface.
Yes, the polyester construction provides enough stretch to allow for a full range of motion during swimming or paddling.
While it provides a slight layer of protection against light breezes, this is a performance rash vest and does not offer the same warmth as a neoprene wetsuit.
Since this is a performance-fit garment, it is meant to fit snugly. Choose your standard shirt size if you prefer a tight fit, or size up if you prefer slightly more room.
Ensure the boardshort loop is securely tethered to your boardshort waist tie before entering the water.
Ensure you are rinsing the garment thoroughly after each use; salt and chlorine buildup can weaken elastic fibers over time.
To ensure your rash vest performs as intended, always align the hem correctly before attaching it to your boardshorts via the built-in loop. Because this garment features a performance fit, ensure you select your correct size based on a snug measurement, as the material is designed to sit flat against the skin.
