Rash Guards and Swim Shirts for Men, Women & Kids
Rash guards are one of the easiest ways to stop getting cooked in the sun while surfing, swimming, snorkelling or paddling around. They also help with board rash, which is handy unless you enjoy explaining red belly marks to strangers.
UPF Rash Guards, Surf Shirts & Loose Fit Rash Vests
I’ve put the main surf brands first, then the kids’ rash guards and loose-fit options further down. Look for UPF protection, sleeve length, fit style and whether it is a tight rashguard fit or a looser sun shirt.
