How long does UPF50+ last?Updated 8 months ago
It’s hard to guarantee a specific timeframe for the life of a UPF50+ garment as it can vary; fabrics naturally deteriorate over time by many factors. The UPF50+ rating of our fabrics is guaranteed for a minimum of 50 washes or 120 hours of direct sunlight. The longevity of a garment can be affected by the level of care, the frequency of washes and wear, and level of physical activity when wearing the garment, so it is difficult to pinpoint an exact time frame at which the UPF50+ protection will fade.
