Rip Curl Icons Surflite Upf L/S

Description

Rip Curl Icons Surflite Upf L/S is a long-sleeved surf tee in a classic rash vest style, made for anyone who wants reliable sun protection in the water – from surf sessions to long days at the beach and pool. The loose, T-shirt-style fit means you can wear it all day without it feeling tight, while the lightweight knit keeps you comfortable. Rip Curl combines iconic surf style with functionality designed for life in the waves.

At the heart of the vest is the stretchy Surflite knit made from 100% polyester, which moves with you through every paddle stroke and movement. The fabric provides UPF 50+ UV sun protection in accordance with the AS4399:2020 standard, protecting covered areas of skin while you’re out in the sun. The flatlock seams sit flat against the skin and reduce irritation while paddling, and the elastic boardshort loop keeps the vest in place.

  • UPF 50+ sun protection: Protects the skin from UV rays in accordance with the AS4399:2020 standard.
  • Stretchy Surflite knit: Lightweight knit made from 100% polyester with excellent freedom of movement.
  • Loose tee fit: Relaxed, T-shirt-style fit that’s comfortable all day.
  • Flatlock seams: Flat seams against the skin reduce chafing and irritation while paddling.
  • Heat transfer print: Graphic print on both the front and back.
  • Elastic boardshort loop: Lets you attach the vest to your boardshorts so it doesn’t ride up.

  • Care & Maintenance

    Wash

    • Rinse the rash vest in cold, fresh water immediately after use to remove salt water, chlorine, and sunscreen.
    • Machine wash at a maximum of 30 °C on a gentle cycle, and wash with similar colors.
    • Avoid bleach, fabric softener, and dry cleaning.

    Drying

    • Hang the vest to dry in the shade - direct sunlight can fade the colors and wear down the print.
    • Do not tumble dry or iron - especially not directly on the heat transfer prints.

    Storage

    • Make sure the vest is completely dry before putting it away.
    • Store it somewhere cool and dry, away from direct sunlight, when not in use.
  • FAQ

    How much UV protection does the Rip Curl Icons Surflite Upf L/S provide?

    The rash vest has UPF 50+ UV sun protection in accordance with the AS4399:2020 standard and protects the covered areas of your skin from the sun’s UV rays.

    What is the vest made of?

    It’s made from 100% polyester in a stretchy Surflite knit that’s lightweight and comfortable to wear in and around the water.

    How does the fit run?

    It has a loose, T-shirt-style tee fit that sits comfortably and allows plenty of freedom of movement – it isn’t designed as a tight compression rash vest.

    What sizes is it available in?

    The model is available in sizes S, M, L, XL and 2XL – check Rip Curl’s size guide if you’re unsure about your size.

    How do I wash and care for the rash vest?

    Rinse it in cold fresh water after use, wash it at a low temperature on a delicate cycle, and let it dry in the shade – avoid tumble drying and ironing to help the fabric and print last longer.

    Can it be used for both surfing and swimming?

    Yes, the vest is designed for life in and around the water and is suitable for surfing, swimming, the beach and other watersports activities where you want extra sun protection.

    What is the purpose of the elastic boardshort loop?

    The loop lets you attach the vest to your boardshorts so it doesn’t ride up when you paddle or duck under waves.

    What details set it apart from a regular T-shirt?

    The flatlock seams lie flat against your skin and reduce irritation, and both the material and details are designed specifically for use in and around the water – something a regular T-shirt can’t offer.
