Need skin protection? Protect your skin and look great too with this extremely comfortable, loose fit rash guard swim shirt. Available in two vibrant colors, you will be captivated by the water photo pattern and feel of the soft four-way stretch fabric. So you may be asking, "what's different about this rash guard"? The answer is simple: better sizing. In our research, we've found one consistent complaint about rash guard sizing, the shirts are typically too small.So our approach at Aquawear is to size each shirt as a form-fitting tee (that can also be worn as a traditional surfer's rashie by selecting one size smaller). If the goal is to protect skin from harmful UV while swimming or in the outdoors, you should select the same size as you would a form-fitting t-shirt. Instead of wearing a compression shirt, this is the new and best way to size rash guards.Other benefits include certified UPF ultra-violet protection factor 50+ blocking harmful UV rays 97% - 99%, accommodating 4-way stretch fabric, flat-lock stitches for comfort, mock turtleneck collar for added sun protection, excellent moisture management wicking properties, breathable comfort, proprietary Aqua Design pattern, 100% AquaPoly - 82% Polyester/18% Spandex.
