Move freely in the sun with our women's short-sleeved UV-protective swim shirts. Designed for water activities and beach days, our swim tops protect the shoulders, back and chest while allowing excellent freedom of movement. Reliable UPF 50+ protection that feels light and comfortable in the water and on the sand.
Is a short-sleeve UV swim top comfortable for swimming, surfing or paddleboarding?
Yes, our short-sleeve swim tops, also known as rash vests, are comfortable for swimming, surfing or paddleboarding. Their close-fitting cut moves with the upper body, while the fabric dries quickly after the water. Our short-sleeve swim tops are very well suited to active days by the sea, when you're looking for ease, comfort and UPF 50+ protection.
Does a women's short-sleeve UV swim top really protect against the sun in the water?
Yes, our women's short-sleeve swim tops, UPF 50+ certified, effectively protect the areas they cover, such as the chest, back, shoulders and upper arms. They are particularly practical for water activities and days at the beach. Uncovered areas of skin, especially the forearms, hands and face, should be protected with a suitable sun cream.
Does a women's short-sleeve UV swim top feel hot or cling to the skin once wet?
Our short-sleeve UV swim tops are designed to stay light and pleasant to wear in the sun as well as in the water. Once wet, the fabric may hug the skin more closely, but it shouldn't hinder movement. The short cut frees the arms while protecting the shoulders, back and chest from the sun thanks to UPF 50+ protection on the covered areas.
How do I choose the right size for a women's short-sleeve UV swim top?
To choose the right size, consult the size guide on the product page. At Ker Sun, our short-sleeve swim tops should stay close-fitting enough not to move in the water, while remaining comfortable. They are ideal if you're looking for effective, lightweight sun protection for swimming, paddling or simply enjoying the beach.
Does a short-sleeve UV swim top withstand chlorine, salt water and washing?
Yes, our short-sleeve UV swim tops are designed for use in the pool, at sea and for regular washing. To preserve their hold and their UPF 50+ protection, we recommend rinsing them in clean water after chlorine or salt, then leaving them to air dry. This simple habit helps the fabric stay comfortable and perform well for longer.
