FAQ

Who are we?

We're Some Sun®-- we make cute sun protection UPF clothing to make protecting your skin easy. Our classic styles are designed to blend in with your existing wardrobe, so you can protect your skin everywhere.

What is UPF clothing?

UPF measures the amount of UV radiation that can penetrate fabric and reach your skin. UPF clothing is designed to block UVA and UVB rays, the rays that cause skin damage. Most summer clothes and fabric don't provide enough sun protection.

Our sun protection clothing is 3rd party certified to ensure the fabric's protective factors are working properly.

How are we different from other UPF clothing brands?

Most sun protection, sun resistant, UPF clothing brands develop clothes in unflattering styles and colors and are made cheaply. We make sun protective clothing that is on trend, but classic, in appealing colors with high quality fabrics and composition. Since we wear sun protective clothing most days when the sun is out, we want styles to look and feel great in.

How to we grade and verify sun protection?

The standard for grading UPF as follows:

For examples. a fabric must have a UPF of 30 to qualify for The Skin Cancer Foundation’s Seal of Recommendation. A UPF of 30 to 49 offers very good protection, while UPF 50+ rates as excellent. At Some Sun®, we only offer UPF ratings of 30 or higher, and we will always clearly note the UPF factor. All of our fabrics are third party tested.

Wet style testing: If the style is intended for the water, by stating such (e.g. swimsuit, rash guard) we additionally 'wet test' the fabric to verify its UPF factor, and choose the lower rating between the dry and wet test, if they are different figures.
