The highest quality materials are utilized in the construction of Rip Curl’s UV Tee range. Because fabric weight, weave and colour can vary in their performance properties and sun protection qualities, constant testing means we can certify the quality of all the materials we use. Features: Fabric : Surflite material Fit : Long Sleeve T-shirt fit Chlorine Friendly - Chlorine is a strong chemical that jeopardises the integrity of the elastane in the garment. Rip Curl now offers selected garments in Chlorine Friendly material, which will keep their structure, shape and performance even when worn in Chlorine swimming pools. UPF 50+ SUN PROTECTION - Not all UV protection garments are the same. Rip Curl ensure that all there materials are laboratory tested and certified as having a 50+ UPF rating which is the highest UV protection rating available. The UPF rating applies only to the area of skin covered. Protection may be reduced if the material is wet, stretched or from the effects of normal wear or exposure to chemicals. For best sun protection use hats, clothing that provides maximum skin coverage, sunglasses, sunscreen and shade.
