French company Ker Sun oversees every key stage of its production.

This product is made in China, in the Shanghai region, a cradle of textile expertise recognized worldwide. Dyeing, weaving, garment manufacturing – every step is carried out locally by our trusted partners, carefully selected for their know-how and the rigor of their production standards.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this product suitable for my skin type?

Ker Sun’s UV-protective clothing and accessories are designed to provide high-performance protection for all skin types, including the most sensitive.

Certified UPF 50+ and classified as Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in accordance with current European standards, our products offer the highest level of textile protection against UVA and UVB radiation as defined by regulations.

They help reduce UV exposure during outdoor activities, supporting a safer and more confident experience in the sun.

Does the UPF 50+ protection ever wash out?

The UPF 50+ protection does not wash out.

Our sun protective expertise has allowed us to develop fabrics that filter UV rays mechanically. Thanks to the meticulous choice of textile fibers, their optimized density and our advanced weaving techniques, we guarantee a UPF 50+ protection, without added sunscreens, which persists throughout the life of the product, even after many washes.

To preserve the quality and durability of your product, we recommend that you follow care instructions carefully specified on this product sheet (see above) or on the label.

Which certification or standard does this product meet for sun protection?

This garment is certified UPF 50+, providing you with the highest level of sun protection. Every fabric, regardless of color, undergoes rigorous testing under the European standard EN 13758-1 for each new production run, ensuring maximum, reliable, and safe protection.

What sets a Ker Sun UPF 50+ clothing apart from regular ready-to-wear clothing?

Ker Sun's UPF 50+ clothing does more than dress you: it effectively shields you from sun-related risks. This protection is built on three pillars:

  1. Exceptional sun protection: Our clothes are made from UPF 50+ certified fabrics. This long-lasting protection creates a permanent barrier against UV rays, going far beyond what standard ready-to-wear clothing can offer.
  2. Optimal coverage for reinforced protection: Each Ker Sun piece is thoughtfully designed to protect the most sun-exposed areas (arms, neck, hands, face, chest, legs etc.) while maintaining elegance and everyday ease of use.
  3. Maximum comfort, even in hot weather: Designed with heat in mind, our breathable, lightweight fabrics and airflow-friendly cuts help keep you cool while staying shielded from UV rays.

Conventional ready-to-wear clothing, which isn’t designed for sun protection, consistently lacks these benefits. At Ker Sun, our mission centers on creating garments that truly defend you from the sun, allowing everyone to enjoy outdoor activities with peace of mind.

Do I need to apply sunscreen underneath my UPF 50+ clothing?

With Ker Sun sun protective clothing and accessories, there’s no need to apply sunscreen on covered areas.

However, for full protection, it’s important to apply sunscreen to any exposed skin. We recommend applying sunscreen 30 minutes before sun exposure and reapplying every two hours or after swimming, in accordance with the instructions for the product you’re using.

For which activities is this product designed?

This UPF 50+ sun protective product is designed for all your daily activities, delivering sun protection and comfort in any situation.

Whether you’re traveling, heading into the city, strolling through the woods, cycling, or gardening, it ensures optimal defense against the sun’s rays while allowing you the freedom of movement you need. Versatile and lightweight, it’s perfect for effortlessly accompanying both your leisure time and outdoor pursuits.

Is this hat adjustable to various head sizes?

Yes, it has an adjustment mechanism to fit comfortably around different head sizes.

Is this hat foldable?

Absolutely. It is even perfect for traveling. You can fold this hat without damaging it, so you can store it easily in a bag and always keep it on hand.

Chouette chapeau

Chapeau très couvrant, aussi bien les yeux que la nuque.
Petite suggestion pour une amélioration: comme la transpiration en période de chaleur se concentre sur la partie (petit rebord intérieur) en contact avec le front et le crâne, pourquoi ne pas rendre ce petit rebord détachable pour ne laver que celui-ci après de fortes transpiration. Serait plus pratique pour le lavage (uniquement rebord interieur et pas tout le chapeau), plus écologique et meilleur pour la durabilité du chapeau. Bien entendu ce petit rebord de rechange pourrait être acheté comme option.

Draagt prima. Koord kunnen apart uitwassen. Ivm zweten, wordt de hoed zwart aan de buitenkant, van de rand aan de binnenkant. Beter een donkere hoed kopen, maar deze was er op dat moment niet meer.

Super Faro

J'avais un peu peur pour la taille car, en général, même en prenant la plus petite taille, les chapeaux restent trop grand. Ici, rien à dire, la taille est parfaite et l'élastique pour ressérer est confortable.
Le chapeau est super beau et la couleur est conforme à la photo :)
