What is a rash guard used for?

  • A rash guard is a type of swimwear designed to provide protection against sun exposure, abrasions, and irritation from water sports. They are often made from stretchy, quick-drying materials that allow for ease of movement while swimming or playing. Rash guards are ideal for both casual beach days and more active water sports.

Do children's rash guards provide sun protection?

  • Yes, many children's rash guards are made with UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) fabric, which helps block harmful UV rays from the sun. This added protection is essential for keeping kids safe during outdoor activities, especially when they are in the water for extended periods. Always check the UPF rating for specific sun protection levels.

Are rash guards suitable for all water activities?

  • Rash guards are versatile and suitable for a variety of water activities, including swimming, surfing, paddleboarding, and beach play. Their snug fit and durable fabric help protect against chafing and irritation, making them a great choice for active kids. However, for specific activities, consider the design and features that best suit your child's needs.

How should I choose the right size for a children's rash guard?

  • When selecting a rash guard for children, it's important to refer to the sizing chart provided by the manufacturer, as sizes can vary. Measure your child's chest and waist to find the best fit, and consider their growth when choosing a size. A snug fit is ideal for performance, but ensure there is enough room for comfort and movement.

Can rash guards be worn without swimsuits?

  • Yes, rash guards can be worn on their own or paired with swim bottoms, such as swim shorts or bikini bottoms. They provide coverage and protection, making them a versatile option for kids who prefer a little extra coverage while swimming or playing. Choose styles that suit your child's comfort level and activity.

Are there different styles of children's rash guards?

Some feature zip-up fronts for easy on and off, while others have fun prints and colors to appeal to kids. Selecting a style that your child enjoys will encourage them to wear it more often.
