Set off on an adventure with our women’s UV hiking shirts. Made from a UPF 50+ certified fabric, they protect your neck with their turn-up collar and your arms with their long sleeves. Trusty companions for every outing, from a woodland walk to the mountains.
Does a UV hiking shirt really protect you from the sun?
Yes, a UV hiking shirt really protects you from the sun, provided its fabric is certified. At Ker Sun, our hiking shirts offer the highest level of sun protection: UPF 50+ against UVA and UVB rays, in line with European standard EN 13758-2. Inherent to the weave, this protection withstands washing. Classified as Category I personal protective equipment (PPE), they undergo strict testing. Good to know: protect your face with a UV sun hat, and remember to apply sunscreen to any uncovered skin.
Is a women’s UV hiking shirt too warm?
No, a well-designed women’s UV hiking shirt is not too warm, even in intense sun. At Ker Sun, comfort in hot weather is at the heart of our designs: the Sequoia and Sequoia Light styles have vents in the back that let air circulate as you walk. Lightweight, these shirts are also easy to forget, mile after mile.
Is a women’s UV hiking shirt breathable and comfortable during exercise?
Yes, a breathable UV hiking shirt keeps you comfortable during exercise, even when the pace picks up. At Ker Sun, our hiking shirts feature moisture-wicking technology that draws sweat away to keep you dry. Their fabric also dries quickly, so you feel comfortable again as soon as you take a break.
How do I choose the right size for a women's UV hiking shirt?
To choose the right size for a women's UV hiking shirt, measure your bust and check the size guide on the product page. At Ker Sun, each style has its own guide, based on its cut, so measurements may vary from one shirt to another. Good to know: for hiking, opt for a slightly relaxed fit, which is airier and gives you more freedom of movement.
Can you wear a women's UV hiking shirt in town or when travelling?
Yes, a women's UV hiking shirt works just as well on the trails as when travelling or in town. At Ker Sun, our hiking shirts combine UPF 50+ protection with practicality: their zip pocket keeps your essentials safe, and their stain-resistant fabric keeps you looking neat from morning to night. The Sequoia style also has a loop for hanging your glasses. For a smarter look, discover our UV long shirts.
