Florence Marine X Long Sleeve Utility Pocket Hooded Rashguard
Built for prone paddling, marathon surf sessions, and diving, the Florence Utility Pocket Hooded Rashguard has become an essential piece for the brand's Test Pilots in tropical climates. An easy-access storage zip pocket on the lower back adds convenience purpose-built for long days in and around the water.
Features and Materials
The storage zip pocket at the lumbar is roomy and functional without adding bulk, big enough to fit a spare pair of Future fins, sunscreen, or snacks. The rashguard has a light compression fit, engineered stretch, and raglan sleeves for improved fit and flexibility. A three panel 5mm neoprene hood is comfortable against the head and adds sun protection during long periods in the water, while flatlock stitching keeps seams low profile and prevents chafing. A boardshort tie loop sits inside the waistband to lock things down in turbulent water, and the design includes a laser cut drainage eyelet, a bungee key loop inside the pocket, and a branded damask woven zipper pull. It is made from 80% recycled polyester and 20% spandex, and it carries a UPF 50+ rating that blocks harmful sun rays and reduces how often you need to reapply sunscreen during long days in the water.

Who This Rashguard Is For
This is built for anyone spending extended time in the water around South Florida, whether that is prone paddling, long surf sessions, or diving trips where sun exposure and chafing are real concerns over a full day out. The lower back pocket makes it practical for carrying small essentials without needing to swim back to shore.
Wearing and Caring for This Rashguard
Machine wash cold and hang dry, avoiding the tumble dryer to protect the recycled polyester and spandex blend and keep the compression fit intact over repeated wear. Rinse with fresh water after saltwater sessions before washing to help the neoprene hood and stitching last.
About Florence Marine X
