Product Information

Full details

The Quiksilver Highline Long Sleeve UV Protect Rash Vest is designed for surfers and water sports enthusiasts who require maximum sun protection without sacrificing mobility. Its core benefit lies in the 50+ UPF rating and chlorine-resistant fabric, making it a versatile choice for both ocean waves and pool training; however, its snug, performance-fit design means it will feel tight against the skin, which may not suit those who prefer a loose, casual fit.

FAQs

Is this vest suitable for swimming pools?

Yes, the vest features chlorine-resistant fabric, making it perfectly suitable for regular use in swimming pools.

Does this provide real sun protection?

Yes, it is rated at 50+ UPF, which blocks a significant amount of harmful UV rays when worn.

How should the vest fit?

It is designed with a snug, performance fit. It should feel tight against the skin to reduce drag and friction, but not restrict your breathing.

Can I put this in the dryer?

No, you should never put this rash vest in the dryer as high heat can damage the fabric's technical properties.

Is the material environmentally friendly?

Yes, it is constructed from a sustainable blend of recycled polyester and elastane.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels loose after extensive use

This is often caused by heat damage. Always air dry in the shade to preserve the integrity of the elastane fibers.

Skin irritation or redness

Ensure the vest is rinsed thoroughly to remove all salt crystals or chlorine residues that may be trapped in the fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Quiksilver Highline Rash Vest, follow these care instructions:

  1. Rinse immediately: Always rinse the vest in fresh, cool water after every use to remove salt, sand, or chlorine.
  2. Hand wash: If necessary, use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
  3. Drying: Hang-dry the garment in the shade. Direct, intense sunlight can degrade the elastic fibers over time.
  4. Avoid heat: Never iron or tumble dry the vest, as high heat will damage the moisture-wicking treatment and the material's elasticity.
  5. Storage: Ensure the vest is completely dry before folding or storing to prevent mildew growth.
