Product Information

Full details

The Grass & Air Honeycomb Waffle Long Sleeve Rash Vest is an ideal choice for toddlers aged 3-4 who need reliable sun protection and comfort during water-based activities. Crafted from eco-friendly recycled polyester with a unique waffle-knit texture, it provides essential UPF50+ defense against harmful UV rays while remaining soft on delicate skin. While the long-sleeve design offers excellent coverage, parents should note that it is specifically optimized for swimming and active beach play rather than cold-water insulation.

FAQs

What does UPF50+ mean?

UPF50+ is the highest rating for sun protective clothing, meaning it blocks over 98% of the sun's UVA and UVB rays.

Can this be worn as a normal t-shirt?

Yes, the versatile design and soft waffle-knit fabric make it suitable for wearing as a casual top out of the water.

Is the material stretchy?

The polyester waffle-knit offers natural flexibility and comfort, allowing for easy movement while your child plays.

Does it protect against sand irritation?

Yes, the long sleeves provide a protective barrier between the skin and abrasive sand during play.

Can I put this in the tumble dryer?

No, it is recommended to air dry the garment to protect the fabric's durability and sun-protective properties.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels slightly stiff after air drying

Gently shake or stretch the garment when slightly damp to loosen the waffle-knit fibers.

Staining from sunscreen

Pre-treat the affected area with a mild stain remover suitable for synthetic fabrics before the regular wash cycle.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High UPF50+ sun protection rating
  • Soft, skin-friendly waffle-knit material
  • Made from sustainable recycled polyester
  • Doubles as a casual t-shirt for daily wear
  • Distinctive, modern colour-block aesthetic

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep the Honeycomb Waffle Rash Vest in top condition, rinse thoroughly with fresh water immediately after exposure to chlorine or salt water to prevent fabric degradation. Always machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using harsh bleach or fabric softeners, as these can strip the UPF protection. Air dry flat in the shade to maintain the shape of the waffle-knit fabric and prevent the fibers from stretching. Do not tumble dry, as high heat may compromise the integrity of the recycled polyester material.
