Many people are searching for sun protection solutions as they are becoming more aware of the dangers associated with over exposure to the sun’s UV rays. More and more companies are coming out with new technologies and products all the time to fit this need. One of the most useful and cost effective types of products to come on the market in recent years have been rash tees and rash guards. These innovative types of shirts provide a UPF (ultraviolet protection factor) rating of anywhere from 15+ to 50+, the higher the rating the higher level of protection provided. These rash products do an exceptional job of blocking out UV rays and give the skin a proper level of sun protection.
Rash tees are a newer product which are very similar to rash guards but are often loose fitting. Many people opt for these shirts since they are looking for a more comfortable and loose fit. These tees are often worn out of the water just as a regular cotton tee would be used. Another beneficial attribute of the rash tees is they are made of out a quick drying fabric. This is great if you plan to be in and out of the water while wearing these shirts. This also is a feature that is appreciated by people who use rash tees as work out clothing. The quick drying fabric wicks moisture away from the skin keeping you dry and cool during a long tough work out.
Another great benefit of rash tees is they can be very cost effective. When you consider these tees can last for many years and the UPF rating will not be compromised as long as the user follows the washing directions properly. Factoring in the cost of bottles of sunscreen of the course of a few season especially if you are out in the sun often, you can save a considerable amount of money by purchasing a rash tee. It is important to use sun protective clothing in combination with sunscreen to get the optimal level of protection but wearing sun protective clothing greatly reduces the area of exposed skin in which sunscreen needs to be applied. There are many popular outdoor companies and surf companies that manufacture rash tees or loose fitting rash guards. O’Neill rash tees have been a big hit with many in the younger generation that often wear O’Neill products. All and all there are many good products on the market you just may have to search to find the best ones.
