Full details

Its key benefit is providing UPF50+ sun protection in a soft, waffle-knitted fabric that doubles as a casual t-shirt.

Made from recycled materials, it offers both comfort and eco-conscious design.

Troubleshooting
Rash vest feels tight or restrictive
Ensure the correct size has been selected based on the child's measurements. Refer to the size guide for accurate fitting. If between sizes, consider sizing up for a looser fit.
Fabric appears worn after washing
Follow the care instructions carefully, washing in cold water and avoiding harsh detergents or high heat drying. Hang drying is recommended to preserve fabric integrity.
Sun protection seems less effective
Ensure the rash vest covers the intended areas of skin completely and is not stretched too thinly. UPF protection can be reduced if the fabric is significantly overstretched or damaged.
