Sun protection clothing is specially designed clothing made with fabrics that help block harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays from reaching your skin. These garments typically have a high UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) rating to ensure effective sun safety.

While everyone can benefit from additional sun protection, these clothes are especially recommended for:

  • Outdoor enthusiasts (hikers, runners, swimmers)
  • Sun-sensitive individuals
  • Parents (to protect children’s sensitive skin)
  • Vacationers and holiday makers

These clothes use tightly woven fabrics, special fibers, or added UV-absorbing treatments to block both UVA and UVB rays. The UPF rating shows how effective the fabric is at protecting you from sunburn.

UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. The higher the UPF, the better the protection. Look for a minimum rating of UPF 30; UPF 50+ offers the best coverage, blocking 98% or more of UV rays.

Clothing with a high UPF rating offers consistent, long-lasting protection and doesn’t need to be reapplied. However, sunscreen remains important for exposed skin and areas not covered by clothing, such as your face, hands, and feet.

Wear these garments anytime you're outside, especially:

  • During peak sunlight (10 am to 4 pm)
  • At high altitudes or near water, sand, or snow where UV rays are stronger

Yes! Many sun protective garments are designed for water activities and dry quickly. Always check product details for swim-specific features like chlorine resistance.

Wash in cold or warm water with mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners to maintain the UPF properties. Air dry or tumble dry low as recommended by the manufacturer.

Consider the following:

  • UPF rating (30+ or higher)
  • Coverage (long sleeves, high collars, wide brims)
  • Comfort and breathability
  • Quick-drying if you’ll be swimming
  • Fit for your specific activity (loose fit provides more coverage)

Always check the manufacturer’s age guidelines. Babies under six months should have minimal sun exposure and benefit from wide-brimmed hats and lightweight clothing in addition to, not instead of, shade.

With proper care, most high-quality sun protective clothing maintains its UPF for many washes. However, heavy wear, stretching, and repeated exposure to chlorine or saltwater can diminish effectiveness over time.

Yes! Our sun protection clothing is tested and approved by ARPANSA (Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency), the leading authority on UV standards in Australia. You can trust that our garments meet stringent safety and effectiveness requirements.
