Florence Marine X Windshield LS Hooded Rashguard
Florence Marine X's original Hooded Rashguard earned a mythic reputation for its functionality and dependability in harsh solar and oceanic conditions. The Windshield takes that further, covered in an innovative coated material that blocks all wind and absorbs zero water, becoming a go-to piece for many on the North Shore of Oahu.
Built to Block Wind and Water
This is the ultimate solution for tropical, windy conditions. The advanced coated material blocks wind and absorbs zero water, while a light compression fit feels good in the water.

Sun and Comfort Details
A UPF 100+ rating blocks harmful sun rays, and a three-panel hood gives added sun protection during long periods in the water. The recycled polyethylene visor is softer than traditional EVA and more comfortable against your head, flatlock stitching keeps seams low profile and prevents chafing, and 'Equipment Modern' reflective heat transfer marks the design.
Who This Rashguard Is For and How to Wear It
This is built for long sessions in tropical, windy conditions, whether you are paddling out, spending the day on a boat, or working around the water where wind and sun exposure add up fast. A boardshort tie loop sits inside the waistband so you can lock things down in turbulent water, and the hood stays on for extended sun coverage.
Caring for Your Rashguard
Rinse the rashguard in fresh water after every session to clear salt and sand from the coated fabric, and let it air dry rather than using high heat, which can break down coated materials and stretch fabrics over time.
