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.

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.

Schöne Farbe und leichter Stoff

Mir gefällt dieser Bolero sehr gut, die Farbe ist toll und ich mag auch den Stoff. Gut finde ich, dass der Stoff nicht sofort zu müffeln anfängt, wenn man schwitzt. Das einzige was mir nicht gefällt ist, dass für meine (langen) Arme die Länge der Ärmel nicht ausreicht um meine Hände beim Radfahren oder Autofahren zu bedecken. Daher nutze ich den integrierten Daumenschlitz nicht, sondern trage in diesen Fällen meist noch extra UV Fäustlinge oder Handschuhe, was ich nicht so praktisch finde.

Hallo,

Herzlichen Dank für Ihr ausführliches und konstruktives Feedback zum UV-Shrug La Rochelle. Es freut uns sehr, dass Ihnen die Farbe und der leichte, atmungsaktive Stoff gefallen, und dass Sie ihn auch bei Wärme als angenehm empfinden.

Ihre Anmerkung zur Ärmellänge nehmen wir sehr ernst. Unsere Modelle sollen möglichst vielen Körperformen gerecht werden, und Rückmeldungen wie Ihre helfen uns, zukünftige Schnitte noch besser zu gestalten.

Vielen Dank für Ihre Treue und Ihre wertvollen Hinweise.

Herzliche Grüße,
Ihr Ker Sun Team
