The Sail, light blue & extra long, effortless sun protection button down shirt

  • Third-party certified UPF 34 sun protection, blocks 97% of UV rays
  • Silky smooth, high quality fabric and construction
  • Made from 50% bamboo 50% polyester

How does this fit?

  • *Extra* oversized in length and body-- expect a much longer length than a typical button down but with a proportioned fit through the shoulders. We did this so you can also wear it as a cover up over workout clothes or for extra coverage when you want it.
  • Take normal size, or if unsure or shorter than 5'5" size down, as it runs quite long

Is this the right UPF shirt for me?

You're looking for a versatile, high UV-blocking UPF shirt -- something that can be worn on the patio sipping ice tea, running errands or playing outside with the kids. This isn't the UPF shirt you wear at the beach at peak sun, for that, we'd recommend The Maro. This shirt looks is the one you wear out and about for some certified sun protection... it is silky soft, voluminous in fit, long in length and great to pop on over your workout clothes after a pilates session.

Care guide

At Some Sun® we're all about keeping clothing for as long as possible, which is why we're always looking at care labels and making sure our garments are cleaned in the way that helps them to last.

We'll answer the most important questions about how to care for your sun protection clothing.

How should I launder my Some Sun® sun protection?

Always review the Care Label on the inside of your garment for specific directions. Generally, we recommend using a gentle cycle with cold water. Cold water minimizes fiber stretching and helps preserve the fabric’s UPF properties. Please note UPF properties diminish over time and with use, but caring for your garment helps to maintain it.

  • Detergent Choice: Use a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners as they can weaken fibers and decrease UPF effectiveness.
  • Drying Techniques: Air drying is best, as it maintains fabric strength and sun protection longer. Alternately, use low-heat gentle tumble drying.
  • Ironing or Steaming: Most UPF fabrics are wrinkle-resistant, but if ironing is needed, set the iron to a low temperature. Excessive heat can break down the fibers used in UPF garments. 

How long does sun protection clothing last? 

Generally speaking, it is a good idea to replace UPF attire every year if worn frequently, or if the garment fabric is thinning or piling. Our attire can be worn for non-UPF uses, which means it can last and be used longer than most UPF clothing. 

In summary, it's a good habit to replace sun protective clothing every year to ensure that normal wear and tear has not diminished the sun protection properties of the clothing.
