Care guide

How to Care for UPF Clothing

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.

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.

Don't hesitate to reach out to us with any questions.
