Sharkskin Rapid Dry Rashie Long Sleeve (Junior)
The Sharkskin Rapid Dry Rashie Long Sleeve is a sun protective swim top for kids who snorkel, swim at the beach or tag along on family dive trips. It has long sleeves and a high neck for UPF50+ coverage, and when paired with Sharkskin Rapid Dry Swim Jammers it gives neck to knee protection. It is Australian made and comes in Blue or Pink.
What Makes Rapid Dry Different for Kids
Rapid Dry is the material Sharkskin used to rethink the rashie. The fabric contains no Lycra or spandex, which break down quickly in sun and salt, so it is chlorine resistant and Sharkskin says it lasts five times longer than traditional rash tops. It also dries fast and is warmer than Lycra swimwear, so kids aren't left shivering in a wet shirt between swims.
- UPF50+ fabric with Sharkskin's Sun Shield Technology
- High neck and long sleeves for more coverage
- Soft feel with no scratchy seams or chafing
- Loose, non-clingy fit that is easy to pull on and off
Sizing for Kids
Junior sizes run 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14, and the size number corresponds to your child's age.
