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.

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.

Joli et efficace

Aussi joli et bien fini que sur la photo, et très pratique pour pouvoir mettre des robes à bretelles sans se soucier des coups de soleil dans le dos. Un peu chaud par 35°, mais très agréable à porter mouillé/humide, ça rafraichit bien!

Bonjour,
Pourriez-vous m’indiquer quelle est la largeur des manches sur ce modèle en XL? Le tissu est-il extensible?
Merci beaucoup !

Ker Sun

Bonjour Madame
Merci pour votre message.

La largeur des manches sur ce modèle en taille XL est de 36 cm.

Concernant le tissu, il offre une certaine souplesse, mais il n'est pas spécifiquement extensible comme un textile élasthanne. Il garantit néanmoins un excellent confort et une bonne liberté de mouvement.

Bien cordialement,
L’équipe Ker Sun
