T-Flex Short Sleeve Rash Guard Ladies

Description

Cut close to the body is what separates a base layer from a loose surf top: it does not bunch when a wetsuit is pulled over it, and it makes a damp suit far easier to pull on for the second dive. Nylon and spandex woven for stretch in every direction gives the fabric its shape, and it carries a UPF 80 rating, which is as high as the apparel scale goes, while staying light enough to dry between dives. Short sleeves cover the shoulders and upper arms, which is where a diver burns during the hour spent kitting up and waiting on a boat. The high neckline sits under a BCD strap rather than against bare skin, removing the chafe at the neck and armpits that bare skin picks up over repeated dives, and the material resists chlorine as well as salt. Three sizes are cut on the women's block, XS through M. This is a surface and layering garment carrying no thermal rating. It suits a woman wanting sun cover and a layer under a wetsuit.
