FAQs

Does this rash vest offer sun protection when wet?

Yes, the 50+ UPF rating is integrated into the fabric and remains effective even when the garment is wet.

Can I wear this in a chlorinated pool?

Absolutely. The material is chlorine-resistant, meaning it is specifically designed to withstand the chemicals found in swimming pools.

Is this a loose-fitting garment?

No, it is designed with a snug, performance-oriented fit to ensure it stays in place and does not cause drag while swimming or surfing.

What materials is this vest made from?

It is constructed from high-quality polyester, including a portion of recycled yarn, which provides both durability and sustainability.

How should I store the rash vest?

Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent the fabric from fading or becoming brittle.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels stretched out after heavy use

Ensure you are rinsing the garment with fresh water after every session to prevent salt or chlorine buildup from degrading the elastic fibers.

Skin irritation or chafing under the arms

The vest is designed for a snug fit; ensure the garment is positioned correctly against your skin to minimize friction. If irritation persists, consider applying a thin layer of anti-chafing balm before use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Quiksilver rash vest lasts as long as possible, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Rinse Immediately: After every use in either salt water or a chlorinated pool, rinse the garment thoroughly with fresh, cold water to remove residue.
  2. Hand Wash Recommended: Use a mild detergent and wash by hand to preserve the elasticity of the recycled polyester fibers.
  3. Drying: Air dry the garment in the shade. Do not wring it out aggressively; gently squeeze excess water instead.
  4. Avoid Heat: Keep away from high heat sources, such as tumble dryers or irons, as heat can break down the UV-protective coatings and stretch the fabric.
  5. Fit Check: Ensure you select the correct waist and chest size for your frame to achieve the intended performance-fit benefits.
