Doesn’t all clothing protect me from the sun?Updated 4 months ago
Not necessarily. While all clothing offers some level of UV protection, its effectiveness varies widely. Factors such as fabric type, weave, colour, weight, and condition impact how much UV radiation is blocked. For instance, light-coloured, thin fabrics may only provide minimal protection, sometimes as low as UPF 5. UPF-rated clothing ensures consistent and effective UV protection.
