UV Protective Clothing from Coolibar

Coolibar's mission is to develop superior sun protective products that allow people to enjoy life in the sun.

Well, it’s that time of year again! The kids are in the water all the time! Weather it’s our local pool or out back in the sprinkler. This is the time of year when our swim suit situation starts to get on my nerves haha… The kids are in and out of the water and tend to need more than one suit. They either do not want to put on a wet suit (that hasn’t dried yet) or they misplace a top or a bottom. Of course the missing piece is always here somewhere, but it takes a day or two to find it.

This is when I start purchasing all the kids a second swim suit.

When I look for swim suits for Gracie (my 3 year old), I try to stick to UV Protective clothing. I really do not like using sunblock if I can help it and would rather have the protective clothing instead.

I started on my search and I quickly came across Coolibar.

Coolibar designs and manufactures a large selection of sun protection products ranging from clothes, hats, swimwear, sunglasses, umbrellas and even sunscreens and sunblock! They cover mom and dad… all the way down to your toddler!

I really like their selection of swim wear, especially for Gracie! And I love the fact that their swim wear blocks 98% of UV rays! It’s comforting to know that Gracie is protected from the sun.

Coolibar generously sent me two pieces for Gracie!

I was sent the Paddle In Short-Sleeve Rash Guard and the matching Swim Skort.

These two swim pieces feature:

Superior chlorine and saltwater resistance

Soft, lightweight aqua SUNTECT® fabric

Shape-retaining four-way stretch

Gripper elastic hem on lower back of shirt keeps coverage in place

Rated UPF 50+

Easy Care: Machine wash warm, line dry

“The SUNTECT® brand represents a portfolio of leading sun protective fabrics that have a guaranteed Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) of 50+ for the life of the garment. Whereas Sun Protection Factor (SPF) is used for sunscreens, fabrics use UPF ratings. Each proprietary SUNTECT® fabric is developed with sun protection as its number one priority.”

This UV swimwear is very light weight and flexible. I did not expect it to be so comfortable. The material dries super quick too! And Gracie loves her new swim suit! It fits her great at the same time protecting her from the sun.

If you are looking for UV Protective clothing or swimwear, I would highly recommend visiting Coolibar.
