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?

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.

Pantalon très mal taillé

Bonjour Madame Viersac,
Merci d’avoir pris le temps de nous écrire au sujet du jean anti-UV Saint-Malo.

Je suis sincèrement désolée d’apprendre qu’il ne vous convient pas au niveau de la coupe. Le confort et l’ajustement font partie intégrante de l’expérience que nous souhaitons offrir, au même titre que la protection solaire, et votre retour est donc très précieux.

Les ressentis sur la coupe peuvent varier selon la morphologie, mais cela ne doit évidemment pas être une déception pour vous. Nous pouvons vous proposer un échange vers une autre taille si vous le souhaitez, ou procéder à un retour pour remboursement. Je peux également vous conseiller sur le modèle et la taille les plus adaptés en fonction de votre ressenti (taille, hanches, longueur, etc.).

N’hésitez pas à me préciser ce qui vous a semblé mal taillé (trop large à la taille, trop ajusté aux cuisses, longueur inadaptée…), cela nous aidera à vous orienter au mieux et à transmettre votre retour à notre équipe produit.

Je reste bien entendu à votre disposition pour trouver la solution la plus satisfaisante pour vous.
Bien cordialement.

Kühlt das Gewebe auch, oder zieht die dunkle Farbe die Wärme eher an?

Ker Sun

Guten Tag,

vielen Dank für Ihre Frage.

Der Stoff besteht aus einem leichten Material und ist dadurch deutlich leichter als eine herkömmliche Jeans. Das macht ihn angenehm zu tragen, auch an wärmeren Tagen.

Eine kühlende Funktion hat der Stoff jedoch nicht.

Sollten Sie noch weitere Fragen haben, helfen wir Ihnen gerne weiter.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Team Ker Sun

Ker Sun

Hallo,

Vielen Dank für Ihre Nachricht und Ihre sehr berechtigte Frage!
Es stimmt, dass dunkle Farben die Wärme der Sonnenstrahlen etwas mehr absorbieren als helle Farben. Unsere UV-Schutzkleidung ist jedoch speziell für warme Tage entwickelt worden.
Das Gewebe ist extrem leicht, atmungsaktiv und feuchtigkeitsregulierend. Das bedeutet, dass Körperwärme und Schweiß schnell nach außen abgeleitet werden und kein Hitzestau entsteht. Viele Kunden empfinden das Material daher selbst in dunklen Farben als angenehm luftig und leicht kühlend auf der Haut.

Zudem bieten all unsere Kleidungsstücke einen optimalen Schutz mit UPF 50+ – unabhängig von der Farbe, die Sie wählen.

Wir wünschen Ihnen einen wunderschönen Tag!

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,

Team Ker Sun

J ai un pantalon NUVEES XXL,quelle est la correspondance de taille us pour le nouveau jean?
Merci

Ker Sun

Bonjour,

La correspondance dépend surtout de vos mensurations (tour de taille et de hanches). Pour le jean anti-UV Saint-Malo, les tailles sont exprimées en taille US (W) et se choisissent principalement selon le tour de taille.

Nous vous conseillons donc de vous référer au guide des tailles du produit afin de trouver la correspondance la plus adaptée.

Si vous le souhaitez, vous pouvez aussi nous indiquer votre tour de taille et de hanches en cm, et nous pourrons vous orienter plus précisément vers la taille US la plus appropriée.

Bien cordialement,
L’équipe Ker Sun
