How do I know when to replace my UV-protective clothing?Updated a year ago

The longevity of UV Skinz garments is influenced by usage, exposure to elements, chemical levels in water, and proper care. Common indications that it's time for a replacement include when a garment starts losing its shape or becomes transparent. To prevent premature deterioration, and ensure optimal sun protection, abide by the following care instructions:

  • Rinse in cool water after every use
  • Machine wash in a cold gentle cycle with mild soap and lay flat to dry
  • Do not spin dry, soak, bleach, dry clean, iron, or store when wet
  • Carefully wash and remove all sand grains when dry
  • Avoid rough surfaces and harsh chemicals as these may damage your garment
