Although this t-shirt provides protection from the sun, phenomena such as reflections (on water, sand, etc.), heat, time of day, etc. must be taken into account. Wearing this t-shirt does not exempt you from following appropriate behaviors: wearing sunglasses, wearing a hat or cap, regularly applying suitable sunscreen, drinking regularly, etc.

All our UV protection t-shirts are UPF50+, meaning they offer the maximum level of sun protection. The choice will therefore be based on the sleeve length and will then depend on the type of stresses during the practice. Surfing is where the constraints are greatest, so we decided to build our range primarily for surfing. For surfing, the choice will be made according to the duration of your sessions: 1 hour, 2 hours, or 3 hours.

1 hour: Occasional use. You can choose between a loose fit (priority given to ease of donning and dry comfort) or a fitted fit (priority given to wet comfort). A buckle system to connect to the shorts provides stability. 2 hours: Regular use. Wet comfort is enhanced thanks to the seamless panels under the arms and the drawstring, which further increases stability. 3 hours: Intensive use. Added thermal properties to last longer in the water.

The minimum recommended water temperature for using this anti-UV t-shirt is 22°C. Air temperature can increase or decrease this recommendation. Our thermal models (over 2 hours) are made of either fleece, neoprene, or both. The presence of wind will have an impact that can be bothersome as soon as the wind exceeds 15 km/h: In this case, choose a model with neoprene.

Our UV tops are designed to meet the most demanding surfers. Our design choices also make them compatible with other water sports such as swimming, kitesurfing, windsurfing, wakeboarding, water skiing, active sea walking (longe-coast) or SUP (stand-up paddle ).

This UV-protective t-shirt limits friction and irritation caused by contact with the surfboard or bodyboard. It can also be worn under a wetsuit to limit irritation, particularly around the neck and armpits. Its ability to limit irritation caused by paddling movements is proven for one-hour sessions. If you plan to surf for more than an hour, choosing the UV 500 top will be more suitable thanks to the seamless panels under the arms.

This anti-UV top has a loop at the front to pass the drawstring of the swim shorts to prevent the top from riding up during practice. This solution is recommended for sessions of up to 1 hour. Beyond an hour we recommend choosing the UV 500 top which also has a drawstring at the hips to ensure better stability. The untimely ride-up of the top could indeed cause irritation in the lower abdomen.
