Rash Guard Shirt

Rash Guard Shirt
Guys and girls: What is your swimming attire preference for yourself?

Guys: speedo, board shorts, standard trunks. Shirt or no shirt?

Girls: bikini, tankini, one piece, swimsdress, rash guard?

I like board shorts, or maybe trunks, and I wear a waterproof shirt (underamor or rashguard style) because I have psoriasis. (That way people don't freak if they see red patches on me, I got kicked out of a pool once even though it is harmless.)

My wife likes a skirted swimdress, to give the ladies a baseline.

Tankini, i feel more comfortable.

Thick wetsuits help keep the wearer warmest, however, they also become rather uncomfortable if worn for too long a time. This is wear a rash vest is ideal, as it helps stop the bare skin rubbing against the neoprene and nylon which causes chaffing and sometimes rashes. The vest can also add an extra layer of insulation to your wetsuit as well depending on material used.

The rash guard is often made of Lycra and this makes them comfortable as well. There is also a good array of colors and patterns. Some are even fashionable for the beach and help against sun burn as well.

Under the wetsuit they offer comfort while enhancing the performance you need to move adequately in the water. Plenty of divers and snorkelers around the world use them. Some just use them without a wetsuit and it helps protect against jellyfish stings. Other divers use them for extra protection in extremely cold water.

Body boarders and swimmers also use them, as they find that the extra warmth given by a rash vest allows them to stay in the water much longer. A rash vest offers them good thermal protection and stops chaffing from the activity and movement.

Those who surf also very frequently wear a rash vest as the wax on the surfboard tends to come off, creating a bad rash sometimes on the surfer's body. Wearing a rash guard also helps keep the wax off the body.

The vest is designed to be worn snugly against the skin, but not so tight as to hamper breathing or movements. Worn too tight, the vest can sap your strength needed for the possible dangers of the surf. Rash vests are also known to stretch a bit and skin tight is often best used to describe the fit of the vest.

There are some excellent rash guards that look modern in design and there is also the selection in either short sleeve or long sleeve designs. Some types even have fleecy thermal lining in them. Most rash vests feature flat stitch construction, which is a stitch used to connect two pieces of material in such a way that it has a very even surface.

No matter what water sports you do, a quality rash guard is a good investment for more comfort and fun!
