Built for the Water, Made for Women Who Surf
The Roxy New Enjoy Waves Short Sleeve Rash Guard is a go-anywhere surf layer designed from the ground up for women who spend real time in the water. Whether you are paddling out, riding whitewater, or just spending a long day at the beach, this rash guard earns its place in your bag by doing two things exceptionally well: blocking the sun and eliminating board rash.
Roxy New Enjoy Waves SS Lycra Construction
The garment is cut from smooth stretch lycra fabric that moves with your body rather than against it. The knit has the kind of low-drag, second-skin feel that matters when you are paddling hard, and it dries quickly enough to wear from the water straight to wherever the day takes you next. A relaxed short-sleeve silhouette gives your arms full range of motion while keeping your shoulders and chest covered. The crew neckline sits comfortably without bunching under a wetsuit vest if you choose to layer.
A small embroidered Roxy heart logo sits at the chest, the only decoration on an otherwise clean design that pairs with any board short or bikini bottom.
Sun and Rash Protection
Lycra fabric provides a physical barrier against UV radiation and the abrasive wax-covered deck of a surfboard, two of the most common sources of skin damage for surfers. The short sleeve length covers the shoulders and upper arms, the areas most exposed during paddling. For longer sessions or peak UV hours, pair with reef-safe sunscreen on any exposed skin.
About Roxy
Roxy was the first dedicated female surf brand to emerge from a surf industry built by and for men. Since its founding, the brand has sponsored some of the highest-ranking women in competitive surfing and snowboarding, and its gear is built to the same performance standard its athletes demand. The New Enjoy Waves line carries that heritage into an everyday surf wardrobe staple.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a rash guard used for?
- A rash guard is a form-fitting or relaxed-fit athletic shirt worn in and around water. It protects skin against two main hazards: UV radiation from the sun and abrasion from a surfboard deck, sand, or other surfaces. Most surfers, paddlers, and beachgoers wear one as an alternative or supplement to sunscreen.
- Is the Roxy New Enjoy Waves rash guard good for surfing?
- Yes. The short sleeve cut gives your arms full range of motion for paddling, the smooth lycra fabric reduces drag in the water, and the relaxed fit layers easily over a bikini top. It is suitable for surfing, boogie boarding, stand-up paddling, snorkeling, and general beach use.
- Can you wear a rash guard under a wetsuit?
- Yes. A short sleeve rash guard worn under a wetsuit reduces friction between your skin and the neoprene, making the wetsuit easier to put on and more comfortable to wear during longer sessions. The crew neck on this style sits flat and does not bunch.
- Does a rash guard replace sunscreen?
- A rash guard significantly reduces UV exposure on the areas it covers, but it does not replace sunscreen entirely. Apply reef-safe sunscreen to any exposed skin, including your face, neck, lower arms, and legs, especially during midday hours or extended water sessions.
- How do I care for a lycra rash guard?
- Rinse the garment thoroughly in fresh water after every ocean session to remove salt, sand, and sunscreen residue, which degrade lycra fibers over time. Machine wash on a gentle cold cycle and hang to dry away from direct sunlight. Avoid the dryer, as high heat shortens the life of stretch fabrics.
- Is Roxy a good brand for women's rash guards?
- Roxy is the original dedicated women's surf brand and has sponsored elite competitive surfers for decades. Its rash guards are cut specifically for women's proportions and built to handle real surf sessions, not just poolside use.
- Where can I buy the Roxy New Enjoy Waves SS Lycra?
