The Science of UV-Protective Clothing and Why It’s Crucial for Outdoor Sports ☀️

Sep 12,2024 | Senbwl Sports

Outdoor sports expose athletes to long hours of direct sunlight, increasing the risk of UV-related skin damage. While sunscreen offers short-term protection, UV-protective clothing provides a long-lasting solution that many athletes are now embracing.

How UV-Protective Clothing Works

  • UPF Ratings: UV-protective clothing uses UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) ratings, which measure how much UV radiation can penetrate the fabric. A UPF rating of 50+ blocks 98% of UV rays, offering superior protection compared to standard fabrics.
  • Layered Protection: Many of Senbwl’s UV-protective shirts feature multiple layers of sun defense, ensuring you stay shielded during intense activities like hiking, padel, or pickleball.

The Health Benefits of UV-Protective Clothing

  • Prevents Skin Cancer: Prolonged exposure to UV rays is one of the leading causes of skin cancer. Wearing UPF 50+ clothing helps reduce this risk, especially during extended outdoor activities.
  • Reduces Signs of Aging: UV rays not only increase the risk of skin cancer but also accelerate skin aging. By wearing sun-protective clothing, athletes can maintain healthier skin over time.
