Most of us think about the sun only at the beach. But the real exposure is the ordinary day — the walk to the metro, the lunch outside, the drive with the window down. This is the quiet case for covering up, every day.
Why a regular shirt isn't enough
A standard cotton t-shirt offers very little UV protection — roughly UPF 5, which lets a large amount of UV through. Certified UPF50 fabric is engineered and tested to block ≥98%. The number is the difference.
Why fabric beats sunscreen for daily wear
Sunscreen works, but it asks for reapplication every couple of hours, leaves a cast, and is easy to forget. A UPF50 layer is one decision in the morning that lasts all day. No reapplication, no white cast, no fuss.
What UPF50 actually means
UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) rates how much UV a fabric blocks. UPF50 — the top rating — blocks at least 98% of UVA and UVB. We test to international standards [founder to confirm standards] and show the certificate on every product.
