FAQs
Does this rash top have long sleeves?
No, this specific model features a short-sleeved design for better ventilation and freedom of movement.
Can I wear this top for swimming in a chlorinated pool?
Yes, but be sure to rinse it thoroughly in fresh water immediately after use to remove chemicals that can fade the fabric.
Is the fit true to size?
The top is designed as a slim fit to provide performance benefits in the water, so it will sit closer to the body than a standard t-shirt.
How do I remove salt buildup?
Rinse the top in cold, fresh water and let it air dry naturally in the shade.
Can I use this for non-water outdoor activities?
Yes, the built-in UV protection makes it an excellent choice for hiking or cycling in sunny conditions.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels loose after repeated use
Ensure you are rinsing the garment with fresh water after every session to prevent salt crystals or chlorine from breaking down the elastic fibers.
Skin irritation around seams
Check that you have chosen the correct size (UK 16 in this model) to ensure the flat seams sit against the skin properly without excessive tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Animal Floral Pattern Rash Top, it is important to follow proper care protocols. After every use in salt water or chlorine, rinse the garment thoroughly with fresh, cold water. Avoid wringing the top; instead, gently press excess water out using a towel. Always air dry the garment in a shaded area, as direct, prolonged exposure to UV light can degrade the fabric's elasticity and color over time. Do not iron or tumble dry, as the heat can destroy the technical properties of the synthetic fibers.
