5 Kelii
[ I ’ m 6ft, 180lbs, 39 ” chest, and a size large fits perfect. Feels similar to any other dry fit shirt but also has UV protection so it ’s perfect for outdoor training.

5 Idreama300
[ The Nike Swim Essentials Hydroguard shirt is a lightweight, breathable, and comfortable fabric. You can really feel it blocking the UV rays compared to being shirtless. The sizing runs pretty true to size and this has a somewhat loose fit compared to Nike Dri- fit tops. The design is very simplistic, nothing too bright or flashy. The material dries quickly. If I were to change one thing, I ’ d prefer a slightly more fitted design. Overall a wonderful product that does exactly what its design intended. A product that I would recommend to those seeking sun protection while outside or playing in and around the water.

5 James193054693
these shirts are fantastic specifically the Heathered versions, I had to look all over the Internet to find the colors I wanted, but I was able to get longsleeve University Red, long sleeve game royal and electric algae to go with my long sleeve dark blue and I bought four more short sleeves in the similar colors except I got a gray in place of the electric algae which is also a great color but I could n't find it in a short sleeve. I 'm not sure why these are so hard to get anymore and they 're sold out when they 're so popular. At least I think they 're popular. This is the coolest shirt I 've ever owned. That's why I bought so many of them and scoured the Internet to find them, Nike keep making these and the multiple colors are great. Can you do a mango heathered? anyway, these shirts are great because they 're real light and they act almost like a windbreaker in the breeze, you do n't feel it so much plus the material is fantastic. I use the short sleeves in the daytime and the long sleeves when it's either cold in the morning or in the evening when I 'm out walking, great shirts, make more please. lol

5 Ktek
[ With summer approaching, the Nike Long Sleeve Hydroguard is exactly what everyone needs for protection from the sun. This top offers both comfort and versatility for almost any outdoor activity. It is lightweight and not overly thick, helping keep you cool while spending time outdoors. The clean and simple design gives it a sporty athletic look, while the quality holds up extremely well during strenuous activities both in and out of the water. What I appreciated most about this product was the comfort and support it provides, truly delivering everything you would want from a hydroguard. Honestly, there is very little I would change about this product.

5 Croppies
[ The shirt was made with a simple design but very functional for a lot of activities. My son was able to wear this shirt to the lake. It provided protection from the sun. He wore it while swimming and when not swimming dried quickly. I ’ m sure he will be wearing it for everyday wear and when swimming again.

5 Anthony
[ This long- sleeve swim shirt is awesome. It ’s incredibly comfortable to wear. I like the UV protection, which keeps my skin safe while I ’ m at the pool or beach. The fit is relaxed and loose. The fabric is soft and absorbs sweat, making it great for those hot summer days.

5 Rei
[ The Nike Long Sleeve Hydroguard shirt is a wonderful addition to anyone ’s swimwear. It ’s light, comfortable, and a good looking simple design. The shirt is made of great materials that feel soft against the skin. The fit is great as it is true to size unlike a lot of other swim shirts. My favorite parts of this shirt are how it dries out pretty quick and has upf40+ protection against the sun. This is definitely a solid piece and you should cop one while you can.

5 Rey
[ The Nike Swim Essentials Men's Long Sleeve Hydroguard is soft to the touch, lightweight, and extremely breathable for those hot days on the beach and those fun times in the water. The material dries quickly and its long sleeves offer invaluable protection from the sun's UV rays. The top is stylish enough to walk around the boardwalk after you get out of the water without feeling out of place and the top even makes a great layer underneath a casual button down shirt or jacket. I highly recommend the Nike Swim Essentials Men's Long Sleeve Hydroguard!

I wore this the first day I got in the mail. Everyone surfing was squinting from the sun but not me. I am 5 foot 8 and 155- 160 pounds. The medium is snug but perfect fit and the hoodies and cap stay on while surfing. Super impressed. The gray color is great because you can avoid the white gone gray color. I would recommend it highly.

5 Steve C
This rashguard was purchased for my daughter as she prepares for beach weather. She has previously purchased clothing from the Calia brand and has generally liked the items she has purchased. Cost has been a factor previously or else she would have likely purchased even more from this brand. She was not disappointed with this rashguard as she feels it is comfortable. The rashguard is cropped, however, which may an issue as well as having a very slight opening in the back. She is excited to use this at the beach though as it fits well and should do what is expected in protecting her from the sun and sea.

5 LarryLA
Very nice rash guard. Color is elegant pure black. Great fit, just the right elastic, and washes up perfectly. I washed it before wearing it. This is absolute must for this summer at the pool. I love it that I do not need to apply myself with sticky sunscreens. Nothing negative to say. I love it.

I love this. I 'm 145, 5' 2 '' and 34 DD and I got the medium. It fits snug bug comfortably and because I 'll be swimming in this, it will not float around my body so that's a plus. I got white. It's mildly see through but with a swimsuit under, will be fine.

I got this in 2 colors to go with whatever suit I packed on my vacation. I 've never had a rash guard but always need one by day 2 of my vacation( ouch). The fit is nice and the length is ideal.

Utilized at the beach and the pool. Great for a coverup when you are going home in the windy evening. Also great to wear during the sun and keep arms protected from burning- lightweight. Recommend sizing up 1 size if you do n't want it skin tight.

Frequently Asked Questions For Sun Protection Rash Guards

A sun protection rash guard is a type of swimwear designed to provide coverage and protect the skin from harmful UV rays. Typically made from lightweight, quick-drying materials, these garments often feature UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) ratings that indicate their effectiveness in blocking UV radiation. They are ideal for outdoor activities such as swimming, surfing, or beach sports, where prolonged sun exposure is common.

Wearing a sun protection rash guard offers several benefits, including protection from sunburn and skin damage caused by UV rays. These garments also provide a layer of insulation in cooler water, helping to maintain body temperature. Additionally, rash guards can prevent chafing and irritation during water sports, making them a practical choice for active individuals.

Yes, sun protection rash guards are available for all ages, from infants to adults. Many brands offer a variety of styles and sizes to accommodate different body types and preferences. This makes them a versatile option for families looking to enjoy outdoor activities while ensuring everyone is protected from the sun.

When selecting a sun protection rash guard, consider factors such as the UPF rating, fit, and material. A higher UPF rating offers better protection, while a snug fit ensures the garment stays in place during activities. Additionally, look for moisture-wicking and quick-drying materials for comfort, especially if you plan to be active in the water.

Absolutely! Sun protection rash guards are versatile and can be worn for a variety of outdoor activities beyond swimming, such as surfing, paddleboarding, hiking, or beach volleyball. Their lightweight and breathable fabric makes them suitable for any situation where sun exposure is a concern, providing comfort and protection.

To maintain the effectiveness of your sun protection rash guard, it's important to follow proper care instructions. Generally, it is recommended to rinse the garment with fresh water after use to remove salt or chlorine, and to avoid using fabric softeners, which can affect the material's performance. Washing in cold water and air drying can also help preserve the fabric's integrity and UV protection.
