Roxy Girls Whole Hearted SS Lycra

A short sleeve lycra rash guard built for girls who live in the water

The Roxy Whole Hearted SS Lycra is part of Roxy's Core Basics Collection, a short sleeve rash guard made for kids who spend their days in and out of the surf. It is exactly the kind of lycra rash guard families search for when they need real sun coverage that still fits like a favorite swim top.

Features and materials

This rash guard is made from a recycled polyester elastane blend fabric, using REPREVE recycled fiber, and it carries UPF 50 sun protection built into the fabric itself. The fit is snug, with a mock neck and a large collar binding for comfort against the skin, short sleeves, and a screen logo on the left sleeve and center front for that classic Roxy look.

• Recycled polyester elastane blend fabric (REPREVE)
• UPF 50 sun protection
• Snug, fitted cut with a mock neck and large collar binding
• Short sleeves
• Screen logo on the left sleeve and center front
• 86% recycled polyester, 14% elastane composition

Who it is for

This is a piece for girls who are in the ocean or the pool for hours at a time, whether that is a surf lesson, a day at the beach, or just splashing around after school. The snug fit means it stays put under a swim bottom instead of riding up while paddling or playing, and the solid colorways pair easily with any swim bottom already in the drawer.

How to wear and care for it

Wear it as a base layer under a rash-guard set or on its own over a swimsuit for extra coverage on the shoulders and torso. Rinse it in fresh water after ocean or pool use to help the fabric and print last, and wash it on a gentle cycle rather than with heavy fabrics that can snag the knit. Because sun protection comes from the fabric itself rather than a topical sunscreen, it keeps working wash after wash as long as the garment is cared for normally.

About Roxy

Roxy was the first female surf brand to emerge from a male dominated surf culture, built for women and girls who dream big and follow their own path. The brand stays true to its board riding roots through its surf and snowboard teams, home to some of the highest ranking athletes in the sport.
