UPF (Ultraviolet Protective Factor) clothing is designed to protect you from UVA and UVB rays.&#xA0;Sometimes people confuse UPF and SPF but they are not the same thing. SPF is used to measure the level of UV radiation blocked by sunscreen.&#xA0;According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) indicates how much UV radiation (both UVA and UVB) a fabric allows to reach your skin.&#xA0;UPF clothing is an important part of your wardrobe. UV rays from the sun can lead to skin cancer, severe sunburn, and skin aging. Young babies also can&apos;t wear sunscreen and their skin is much more sensitive to the sun.&#xA0;Any clothing will provide you with some sun protection but not all fabrics offer equal protection. According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, a basic white T-shirt has a UPF factor of about 7 which drops as low as 3 when wet! UPF clothing has been specially designed to offer you much more sun protection. All UV Skinz items are certified UPF 50+ to block 98% of the harmful UVA and UVB rays.&#xA0;
