Platinum Sun rash guards are lightweight and are made to fit tight/snug. The rashguard tops have TIGHT ERGONOMIC FIT, more of a performance fit.
If you want a looser fitting rash guard, purchase a size up.
!!!!! RASH GUARDS ARE SUPPOSED TO FIT VERY TIGHT AND SNUG THE BODY !!!!!
It is a good idea to order a larger size, if you don't use the rashguard for any Watersports but only want to protect your skin from the sun rays - there is no need for a tight fit.
With water sports, for example, a loose-fitting rash guard can be cumbersome when swimming or surfing.
The top length is longer than average.

I love this shirt! It has all the features I wanted.- long sleeves- thumb holes & covers the back of my hands- zipper at the neck to get off & on easier- silicone band at the bottom hem to keep it in place & sand out.- shirt is long enoughI boogie board and snorkel. It’s important to keep covered to prevent getting burnt when you’re in the water for hours. No water resistant sunscreen will last that long, and sunscreen isn’t good for the ocean.There isn’t a built in bra . You’ll need a sports bra or swim top underneath. Which I’m thankful for because built in bras don’t always fit right depending on your body type. Sometimes I want my rash guard off when I’m just chilling as well.The fabric is super stretchy and made to fit tight. I normally wear a medium shirt . I ordered an xl so it wouldn’t be skin tight but still snug enough to not get loose when wet. It fits perfect. It’s a medium-light fabric. It dries fairly quickly. I’ve had lighter ones, and thicker ones.I appreciate that the length of the sleeves is finally long enough! The zipper is backed with fabric so it doesn’t rub or get annoying. The silicone band at the hem is wide enough to actually work. The shirt is long enough for someone 5’6 tall. They definitely put thought into the design.The color options are beautiful! However, they’re all high contrast. Something to keep in mind if you swim in an area with a lot of sharks.I would buy more of these if they came in anti shark colors- specifically teal or dusty teal. That color in particular almost disappears in the ocean. Alive Solutions has suit color tests available online, tested in different scenarios. Just type Alive Solutions Sharks into a browser.We have great whites and bull sharks here that get close to shore. One exploratory bite could end your life or loose a limb. Sharks sneak attack from underneath, you’ll never see it. Even in fairly clear water.Studying shark attack records, I found that victims were usually wearing Black or blue. Which appears as a shadow under water. They see in black & white therefore shadows and high contrast gets their attention.*** I’m very pleased with the quality and design of this. Worth the money ***I hope they read this review and consider offering anti shark colors. They’re based in Florida, one of the shark capitals of the world.

This is gorgeous and fits the same wet or dry. The fit was smaller than I had expected based on their fit chart.

I love these Rash Guard Swim Shirts, and own 3 of them. I wear them for the sun protection when I am swimming. They are a snug fit so that they do not create any issues when swimming. They dry quickly so that I can leave the pool and drive home without having to change. I wore my first Rash Guard Shirt on a sailing trip last year and it protected me from the harsh sun and wind and looked fantastic! I purchased two more this year to rotate them out for the summer. My favorite features are the length of the sleeve and the thumb hole to also protect the tops of my hands. The length of the shirt with a rubbery band at the bottom holds the shirt in place without riding up. Love them!

Bought this for my wife who is extra tall and has long arms. Much better that anything you can get in 'tall' shops and it fitted her well and it is not a boring colour.

I looked through so many rash guards but no reviews I read really stressed good length for us tall women (or men- whoever’s wearing). But anyway, I was a little worried because I am 6 foot tall (72in.) and length is always a concern. Came in the mail today and I tried it on and I love the vibrant colors, the comfort, the gel Alastair around the bottom to lee it in place, and the fact that it is long enough in the arms and torso. I got a Medium (almost thought I needed to go with a Large but it was sold out- so still tried my luck with the Medium; and I am glad I did). I am 155lbs- pretty slim built- and ‘this size works perfectly for my size/shape. It is a little loose right in the armpit area and below my chest but I’m certain that’s because the good Lord didn’t give me but a small 36B cup- 🤷🏼♀️😂 Either way, great product, nice fit, and lovely design. Well worth the price in my book! Haven’t wore it in the sun and water yet but I’m sure it’ll do well. Semi sheer- def need to wear a bathing suit top or sports bra of some sort underneath.

This is the first time I've bought a rash guard for myself and everything about it is great, except I would recommend putting sunscreen on as well. The first day I wore it, I spent several hours swimming, snorkeling and picnicking on a beach, sometimes in partial shade, without putting sunscreen under the rash guard, and afterward had a mild (light pink) sunburn especially on my arms and shoulders. I then wore it on subsequent days on the beach and at the pool, putting sunscreen on first, and had no issues with sun exposure. For comparison, the rash guards that I buy for my kids are SPF 50 and they never get sunburned where the rash guard covers them. Maybe that's just the difference between the SPF 30 and 50 protection ratings, but be aware that there is still a danger of mild sunburn when wearing this rash guard with no other sun protection.I love the cool design, perfect fit, comfortable fabric, and practical thumbholes and grip hem. It even added extra warmth in cooler water (and I am the first one to get out of the water if it's cold!). I would love it more if it offered more sun protection but it's not a big problem to have to add sunscreen. I'm very happy with the purchase.

I got this rash guard to wear on the dive boat during surface intervals between dives while in Roatan. For reference, I am 5 foot 10, 135 pounds, 32B and am very lean. I got a Large, because the description said it was a tight fit. I wanted something that would be easy to put on and take off over wet skin and that wouldn't be too tight. The large is perfect. It is a little bit roomy in the underarm/bust area (which for my purposes is perfect) and comfortably tight in the body. It is also long enough! The thumb holes allow the sleeves to cover the backs of my hands down to the knuckle, which will help to prevent my hands from acquiring their usual dive boat sunburn. This shirt is perfect! The white color kept me cool in the very hot sun, and was not see-through when it was wet. It dried very quickly and even after 6 days of continuous wear, with only a nightly rinse in the shower, it was fresh and looked brand new. I got tons of compliment on the design, even from the guys on the boat. This rash guard is a bit pricier than others, but IMHO it is worth every penny.
