Choosing a Rip Curl rash vest

What is a rash vest?

Rash vest, rash top, rash guard, rashie: they are all the same thing. A rash vest stops the rash you get from lying on a waxed surfboard, and it protects you from the sun.

Do Rip Curl rash vests protect against the sun?

Many of the rash vests here are rated UPF 50+, and we recommend one. Even on overcast days it is easy to burn on the water.

Loose or fitted?

Rip Curl makes looser T-shirt style rash vests and more fitted shapes. It comes down to personal preference.

Short or long sleeves?

A short sleeve rash vest keeps your shoulders covered. A long sleeve rash vest gives more protection, so there is one less thing to think about while you are catching waves.
