UPF 50+ Sun Protection for Boys Who Live in the Water
Parents searching for a boys rash guard that actually holds up to sun and saltwater will find that answer in the Salty Crew Snag It Boys Long Sleeve Sunshirt. It is a long sleeve sunshirt made from recycled polyester and elastane with 4-way stretch fabric, built to protect and move with a kid who is not slowing down for the sun.
Materials and Protection
- 86% recycled polyester, 14% elastane
- UPF 50+ sun protection
- Lightweight, 4-way stretch fabric
- Moisture wicking properties
- Anti-microbial
- Screenprinted artwork on chest and back
Set-in sleeves and a crew neckline round out the construction, with UPF 50+ rated fabric doing the real work of blocking sun exposure through a full day outside.
Who This Sunshirt Is For
This is a boys long sleeve sunshirt for surf lessons, sandbar days, paddleboarding, or any stretch of hours in direct South Florida sun where a swim trunk alone will not protect his shoulders and arms. The moisture wicking, anti-microbial fabric means it stays comfortable and fresher through sweat and saltwater than a regular cotton shirt would.
How to Wear and Care for It
Because this is a recycled polyester and elastane blend rather than cotton, it dries faster and resists holding odor thanks to the anti-microbial treatment, but it should still be rinsed with fresh water after ocean or pool use and air dried to protect the UPF coating and the screen printed artwork over repeat wear. Wear it snug against the skin, the way any sun shirt is designed to fit, for the UPF rating to do its job.
About Salty Crew
Salty Crew began as a simple ode to traditional surf culture, honoring the people who took risks on their own terms rather than for fame. The brand carries that same ethos into performance pieces like this sunshirt, pairing modern fabrics and technologies with its surf-inspired identity.
