O'Neill Basic Skins Performance Rash Guard
The O'Neill Basic Skins long sleeve rash guard delivers world renowned O'Neill quality at a value driven price, built for surfers who want reliable sun and rash protection without paying a premium. It carries UPF 50+ ultraviolet protection along with cleanly designed graphics and minimal seam placement to cut down on rash from paddling and board contact.
Built for the Water
- 50+ UPF maximum sun protection
- Strategic seam placement to reduce rash and irritation
- 4 way stretch for a full range of motion
- Performance fit that moves with you
- 6oz polyester and spandex blend with flatlock stitched, breathable seams
The UPF 50+ rating means this rash guard also helps reduce fatigue from sun exposure over a long day in the water, on top of the rash protection it is named for.
Who This Rash Guard Is For
This long sleeve top is built for anyone spending hours in South Florida sun and surf, whether that is a full morning session, a day on the boat, or repeated paddling that would otherwise leave skin raw against a board or wetsuit. The performance fit and 4 way stretch make it equally at home under a wetsuit top or worn on its own for everyday beach days.
Wearing and Caring for Your Rash Guard
Wear it as a base layer under a wetsuit for extra rash protection at the seams, or on its own on warm days when you want sun coverage without the bulk of a full wetsuit. Rinse it in fresh water after every saltwater or chlorinated session to keep the fabric and stitching in shape, and let it air dry rather than tossing it in a hot dryer, which helps the stretch and UPF protection hold up over repeated wears.
