Lands' End Women's SunShade UPF 50 Long Sleeve Hooded Full Zip Rash Guard

Thank you for sharing your review of the Hooded Full Zip Rash Guard. We are sorry to hear that this rash guard did not meet your expectations. Your feedback is appreciated and has been forwarded on to the appropriate Merchant team for further review. The UPF rating for our swimwear, including our rash guards, is determined based on the construction of the fabrication and typically does not have added chemicals or finishes. Before assigning UPF labeling, materials are exposed to conditions that simulate approximately 2 years of normal seasonal uses. The testing is conducted by our nominated 3rd party test lab. Our Swim UPF test reports are also submitted to Skin Cancer Foundation for validation. We expect our products to give UV protection with material nature (fabric thickness & tight construction) instead of non-durable chemical finishes. However, nothing is “permanent” for a lifetime as fabric construction may loosen after repeated stretching & wearing. Most pieces will provide UPF protection for 2 years based on average use and care. Lands’ End is committed to providing the highest quality products and addressing concerns when needed. We encourage our customers to return following our return policy when a product has not met their expectations. Please reach out to us via Chat online (Chat button is the question mark in upper right corner of landsend.com) or call 1-800-963-4816 if you need further assistance with this item or have questions about making a return.
