Main Material

All our UV-resistant rash guards are UPF 50+, meaning they offer maximum sun protection. 
The sleeve lengths vary, and they’re suitable for different water sports. That said, our line was primarily designed to meet the specific needs of surfers. 
Choose your rash guard based on the duration of your surf session: 1 hour, 2 hours, or 3 hours.

How to choose a rash guard (Part 1)

1 hour: Occasional practice. Choose either a loose fit (easy to put on, comfortable when dry) or a tight fit (comfortable when wet). Look for a loop system so you can fasten the rash guard to your shorts.

2 hours: Regular practice. A rash guard with a drawstring and seamless underarm panels will improve fit and comfort in the water.

3 hours: Intensive practice. A style with added warmth will let you stay out longer.

How to choose a rash guard (Part 2)

This Olaian rash guard blocks at least 98% of UVB rays and 95% of UVA rays (UPF 50+), guaranteeing effective sun protection. Ideal for water sports, it can be worn in or out of the water. 
The shirt’s dense fibres filter out UV rays for long-lasting protection, even after washing.

UV protection even when wet

UPF (ultraviolet protection factor) is an international standard that measures the proportion of UV rays a fabric lets through to your skin. A UPF of 50+ means that the fabric blocks at least 98% of UVB rays and 95% of UVA rays.

What does UPF 50+ mean?

This rash guard reduces chafing against your surfboard or bodyboard. Its loose fit makes it easier to put on and more comfortable when dry. Choose the fitted 100 or 500 model if you prefer comfort when wet or plan to wear it under a wetsuit. Shown to reduce chafing during 1-hour sessions. If you plan to surf for longer, our 500 UV rash guard with seamless underarm panels is a better choice.

This rash guard has a front loop that attaches to the cord of your swim shorts to keep it from riding up while you surf. Ideal for sessions of up to an hour. For more than 1 hour, we recommend choosing the 500 UV top, which also has a drawstring at the hips for better stability. A rash guard can cause irritation on the lower abdomen if it rides up.

Support system

This rash guard is recommended for use in water temperatures of 22°C and up. Air temperature may affect this recommendation. 
Our thermal models are made of fleece, neoprene, or both. We recommend choosing a model made with neoprene if you’ll be out in conditions where the wind exceeds 15 km/h.

Warmth and wind

Our UV T-shirts meet the needs of the most demanding surfers. They’re also compatible with many other water sports, including kitesurfing, windsurfing, wakeboarding, water skiing, and stand-up paddle boarding.

Suitable for multiple water sports

Young skin is very sensitive to the sun, particularly before age 3. UV rays are two to three times more harmful to children than to adults, so it’s essential that kids wear proper sun protection.

Kids and UV rays

This top is UV-resistant, but it doesn’t provide total sun protection. Consider other factors like reflections (off water, sand, etc.), temperature, and time of day. Wearing this top is just one part of staying safe in the sun. You should also wear sunglasses and a hat or cap, apply sunscreen regularly, and drink plenty of water.

Sun exposure advice

Tribord surfing products have become Olaian products, the new Decathlon brand dedicated to surfing, bodyboarding and skimboarding. Tribord surfing products will be replaced by Olaian. This is why your product may have a different logo than the one shown in the product picture.
