Benefits of Wearing a Sunshirt Outdoors
A sunshirt is a convenient and useful item of outdoor clothing to shield you from harmful effects of the sun. In addition to providing UV protection, they keep your body temperature cool and comfortable all day long. Many sun protective shirts, like those featuring ActiveIce™ cooling technology from Outdoor Research, go a step further by actively regulating body temperature even during high-intensity activities.
The majority of styles have long sleeves for increased coverage shielding delicate skin from UV rays in places like your arms and shoulders. Long sleeves are practical and helpful since they lessen the need to reapply sunscreen throughout the day. Their ability to wick away moisture from your arms is another important characteristic as it keeps you dry and comfortable all day long by preventing perspiration from accumulating. We highly recommend the long sleeve models to especially anyone more prone to sunburn or skin damage.
