FAQs

What does 40+ UPF protection mean?

UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. A rating of 40+ means the fabric blocks at least 97.5% of harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays when worn.

Is this shirt suitable for cold weather?

This shirt is designed primarily for sun protection and breathability in warmer conditions. It can be worn as a base layer in cooler weather, but it is not insulated for significant cold.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the Patagonia size chart available on the product page or retailer's website. Measure your chest and compare it to the provided dimensions for the best fit.

Can I wear this shirt for swimming?

Yes, the fabric is quick-drying and offers UV protection, making it suitable for swimming and other water activities. However, it is not a swimsuit and may become sheer when fully saturated.

What is the environmental impact of this shirt?

The shirt is made from 100% recycled polyester, reducing reliance on virgin materials and minimizing waste. Patagonia is also committed to sustainable manufacturing practices.

How should I care for the shirt to maintain its UPF rating?

Follow the care instructions: machine wash cold with like colors using a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners, as they can degrade the fabric's protective qualities. Tumble dry low or hang dry.

What is the difference between the color families like 'Green' and 'Blue'?

These refer to the primary and secondary colors available for the shirt. For example, 'Green/Blue' indicates a colorway that combines both green and blue tones.

Troubleshooting

Shirt feels too tight/loose

Consult the Patagonia size chart for accurate measurements. Consider exchanging for a different size if needed. The ergonomic fit is designed for movement, so it may feel different from a standard fit.

Fabric not drying as quickly as expected

Ensure the fabric is not overly saturated with heavy detergents or fabric softeners, which can impede drying. Allow for airflow when drying.

Sun protection seems insufficient

Verify that the shirt is being worn correctly and covers the intended areas. For intense sun, consider additional sun protection like sunscreen on exposed skin and a hat.
