Vapor Apparel Men's Outdoor UPF 50+ Long Sleeve T-Shirt, UV Sun Protection for Fishing, Running, Hiking, Swimming

they were so jealous of my new shirt and how it protected me and my tattoos from the sun that they couldn’t handle me

I’ve tried a few different brands and this one is so much better for the price. The fit is nice and loose so any light breeze feels great. Absorbed sweat pretty well and the material is very comfortable. Some sun def got through and I felt it in my arms at night, however it MUCH better then any reg long sleeve. I used these during the hot so cal sun and it was perfect

My Husbands favorite shirts

I prefer to use clothes instead of sunscreen when I can and on those body parts I can since clothes can’t sweat off or wear off in the middle of a ride. I had some good long-sleeve shirts from REI the last couple of years but they were hard to keep clean and were beginning to wear out. Although I would have liked to have replaced them with long-sleeve hot-weather shirts with front pockets (for use while cycling on recumbent bikes), I can’t seem to find any even from manufacturers that specialize in recumbent gear. So I decided to try these.I usually wear L or XL shirts. I bought these in L and they fit me perfectly (5’10”/200lbs). I think the XL would have been a little loose and blousey on me, the L isn’t snug it just fits right.The colors I chose are white, yellow, and orange. All three are bright and reflect enough light to be very visible and not get too hot when under direct sunlight. I like the yellow and orange more than the white which is borderline translucent. I have received several compliments on the yellow and orange shirts in the couple of weeks I’ve been using them.It’s been darn hot and humid here in NYC the last couple of weeks and these shirts have done their job: I’m not getting any UV exposure through the material, they feel nice on my skin, and the sweat is wicked away very efficiently. I wash them in cold water with other clothes using normal laundry detergent with no softeners, then 20 minutes in the dryer with the other clothes, then I pull them out of the dryer (leaving the other clothes in the dryer) and hang them to finish drying.I hope they don’t stretch out at the cuffs and neck over time, and last as long as the REI shirts did.I wish Vapor would make long pants using this material!edit: I've had my three Vapor shirts for 6 weeks now and still really like them. I've had to snip a few threads here and there but even though they look cheaply made they're holding together pretty well under almost daily use. Two issues: 1- If the slightest bit of bike schmutz makes contact with the shirt it becomes a permanent stain – nothing I've tried will get it out. 2- The shirts are a little delicate: I stumbled into a concrete wall when dismounting from my bike making contact with my shoulder and the shirt developed a (small) hole in that shoulder. I sewed it up and it's still usable but I don't think any other shirt I've ever owned would have shown damage that that insignificant incident.I'd still buy more, I do plan to buy more next year. I like the yellow and orange a lot more than the white (which as I stated above is a little translucent and also shows off the unwashable dirt more clearly). At this price I think I have to accept that they are going to last me only one or two warm seasons of near-daily use rather than three to five years as I became accustomed to with my previous long-sleeve sun-protection cycling shirts that cost 4x as much.

I have purchased several brands of these types of shirts. This brand is the real deal. Great value for the price. My arms are long and this is the only one that fits correctly in sleeve length and thru body. This is not a tight fitting rash guard shirt. This will be only brand it do in the future. Love it

I like everything about these shirts. I have three. Very convenient. I'm 5'10 and about 190. A little round in the stomach. I bought a large and it fits nicely.

The shirt itself it’s nice, the material and the color. I ordered 3 of them size X-small for my husband, 2 were perfectly find, it fits like a glove but 1 of them didn’t, even though it says XS on it, when I looked at the inside- side tag it had a totally different size, it says Small.

I like this shirt so much I bought two of them. I wear it at the swimming pool as I can’t be exposed to the sun and this works great.

As someone who now has to take care of my skin I've been trying different UPF 50+ tops that offer great coverage. The sizing of Vapour's is spot on for me. What I like about their tops compared to a competitors is that the head opening is smaller which means you get greater coverage around the neck area as it sits higher on the shoulders and traps. I've yet to use it for a lengthy period yet so can't comment yet on its ability to control odours which plague polyester materials hence the 4 stars.

First I would say that I normally wear a medium, but I went for a small for a slightly slimer fit.I have order another three after this in different colours, and in the Tshirt style.The fabric is very soft and lightweight. It breaths well, it's zinc treated so it stays fresher longer, and not to forget protects your skin from the sun.I Really like that there 100% polyester with no elastic, like most I have come across. The problem with this is elastic is that it holds on moisture, causeing it to wick and dry slower, not something you want in a Proformance clothing.At a good price I would definitely recommend these for Hikeing, Fishing and over outdoor sport, where you plan on being active and in the sun for long periods of time.

Arrived promptly and as ordered. Size guide [L] is accurate. Comfortable and easy to wear. My only issue is that the material makes it a "bit sweaty" to wear. Perhaps I will use it over a basic cotton T-shirt.

Ich bin 1,96 groß und trage Konfektionsgröße 62.Ich bin seit längerem auf der Suche nach einem UV Shirt fürs Fischen und zum Kajaken in der Ägäis.Die meisten Hersteller bieten nur diese engen Shirts an die nur was für Kleinwüchsige taugen.Nur über Amazon USA konnte ich solche Shirts finden, habe aber wegen der hohen Portokosten nie eins bestellt.Das Shirt passt absolut perfekt, Ärmel und auch Oberweite sind schön weit geschnitten, selbst für Kraftsportler gut geeignet. Von der Länge her passt dieses Shirt auch Menschen mit 2,05m Körpergröße. Einfach riesig!!!Dieses Shirt wird in Kolumbien hergestellt und macht wirklich einen sehr guten Eindruck. Verarbeitungs und Materialqualität einfach Top.Ich werde das Shirt demnächst nochmals auf Herz und Nieren testen und werde diese Rezension dann aktualisieren.

Wir haben dieses Produkt in verschiedenen Größen und Farben gekauft.Mein Mann ist ca. 1.82m groß und 78kg schwer.Weiß in S liegt eng an, sieht aber sehr gut aus und ist trotzdem bequem.Grün in M, sitzt normal mit ein wenig Luft. Sieht aber noch nicht zu groß aus.Blau in L, ist eher etwas gemütliches, sehr viel Platz zwischen Körper und Pulli.Der UV- Schutz ist Super. Hält die Sonne wirklich fern von der Haut. Und schwitzen tut man auch nicht in dem Stoff.Unsere Kaufempfehlung.
