FAQs
What does UPF 50 mean?
UPF 50 means that the fabric blocks at least 98% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays when worn, providing excellent protection.
Is this rashguard suitable for swimming pools?
Yes, this rashguard is suitable for swimming pools. However, chlorine can degrade fabric over time, so rinsing it with fresh water after pool use is recommended.
Can I wear this as a standalone top?
While it offers sun protection, it is designed as a base layer for water activities. It can be worn as a standalone top on the beach or during light activities, but its primary function is for water sports.
How should I dry the rashguard?
It is best to dry the rashguard flat in the shade. Avoid direct sunlight, tumble drying, or ironing, as these can damage the fabric and reduce its protective qualities.
What is the main benefit of the snug fit?
The snug fit is designed to reduce drag in the water, allowing for more efficient movement during activities like surfing and swimming. It also helps the garment stay in place.
Is the material breathable?
Nylon jersey fabric is generally breathable, but the snug fit may reduce airflow compared to a looser garment. It is designed primarily for aquatic environments.
Troubleshooting
Rashguard feels too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the size chart. If it's still too tight, consider if a larger size would be more comfortable for your intended use. Note that a snug fit is intended for performance in water.
Fabric feels less stretchy after washing
Ensure you are following the care instructions precisely, particularly hand washing with cold water and mild soap, and avoiding harsh chemicals or machine drying.
Sun protection seems reduced
Check the fabric for any signs of wear or thinning, especially in high-friction areas. If the fabric is significantly degraded, it may be time to replace the rashguard.
