Review on CARVE Designs Rashguard Shibori Indigo Sports & Fitness by Michael Vargas

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A great classic that is an alternative to lots of sunscreen!

I love this rashguard! I live in Hawaii and am a mother of three children. I no longer use chemical sunscreen (unless I'm in an emergency!) and wearing it is MUCH easier than trying to apply zinc oxide sunscreen to your back, shoulders and arms! Now I just have to take care of my legs, upper arms and face. I LOVE that I don't have to worry about sunscreen on my torso and arms at all! I'm wearing this rash guard with a pair of Lands End bikini bottoms that I already had. I love that I can color coordinate these rash guards with items I already have in my closet. Over time I plan to buy a few more as I will be living in Hawaii for a few more years. I know they seem expensive, but if you wear a rashguard like these often (especially if you live near the coast or are always outdoors) it makes sense to buy one rather than spending the same amount on sunscreen, which is a pain is. apply to quarrels with children, car keys, water bottles, etc.! I've also worn this about 20 times (if not more) and I have no snags or discoloration. I don't wash separately, but I do wash in cold water and always hang dry. Very impressive.

Pros
  • Custom 6.9 oz. jersey, 4-way stretch, 82% nylon, 18% spandex.
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than others
