O'NEILLMen's Premium Skins Upf 50+ Long Sleeve Rash Guard

This is one schnazzy swim shirt. It is comfortable enough to want to wear it frequently, and it makes you look in even better shape than you are.I love the fact that it is long enough to hold itself in place (no riding up), and it's nearly as comfortable as skin. I haven't checked to see if it's really SPF50 (I'd have to wear it for 50 hours in the sun, then compare it to a 1 hour sunburn), but it does seem like it'd be hard to sunburn through.It's not good for fighting fires, so don't try wearing it into burning buildings. It's probably too thin to wear as arctic protection (either in, or out of the water), and it won't protect you from gamma or cosmic radiation. It will, however, protect you from box jelly stings (but not yellow-jackets or angry bees), and if you're in good shape, might help pick up women at the beach.I like mine and plan to wear it until the seams wear out.

I have worn this rashguard at both at the beach on 80+ degree sunny days, and at the lake while paddleboarding for several hours, and I was surprised to find that I have never felt hot because of wearing this shirt. In fact, once it gets a little wet, it actually keeps me cool. The cooling effect it gives you while the water evaporates from its fabric feels similar to standing in in air conditioned room, especially if there's a breeze..As for sizing, many of the reviews say to order a size up, but after reading through several reviews I saw that nearly everyone who described themselves as "fit" said that the shirt ran true to size. I like to consider myself a fit 5'8, 160 pounds, so I ordered a medium just like I do in t-shirts, and it fits perfectly. It is absolutely skin tight like its painted on, but that's the point of a rashguard! If I were overweight or had a bit of a gut, I could see going one size up, but if you are in shape it fits true to size.I bought this shirt purely for the sun protection, because skin cancer is no joke, and it has quickly become my go-to shirt any time I find myself near water. I'll probably be ordering another in a different color.

I had the O’Neill Basic, and it’s 5 star for my taste. So I bought their Premium. I liked the color. It’s thinner than the Basic and rides up my belly, but I got large, not medium, so it’s my bad. It dries quicker than the basic, which is great. Medium is quite tight on me, but apparently it’s the correct size for a rash guard.

Love its style, quality materials. The size is way too tight for me. I'm 5'5" weigh 148 lbs with a 31" waist. Following the size chart, I bought a small size. item arrived but I couldn't even fit in it. So I returned it (thanks Amazon) and bought a medium size. With medium, I can fit inside but it's very tight still. So I return it for the second time. I wanted to get a large one instead but the next step up on Amazon is a XXL. So I said forget about it plus I'm getting embarrassed keep returning the same item. Overall, good product just need to order about 2 sizes bigger.

After perusing myriad reviews of this shirt, I thought this item might be a perfect fit for my recipient. When I opened the shipping bag containing my order (which didn't arrive on the guaranteed date, BTW) I was in shock: The "Men's 3XL" Skins Tee was a mere 18 inches in width...DO NOT attempt to order this if you are larger than an adult Small (possibly adult Medium at best) !!! The person for whom this shirt was intended wears a size Men's M / L, NOT a 3XL...however as reviews stated it ran a bit small I felt comfortable ordering the "3XL", therefore circumventing any possibility of this shirt being too small... WRONG !!!It does seem well-made, flat seams, SPF 50, etc. BUT that does not compensate for the extremely tiny size this company is calling a Men's 3XL...save your money--and for all you true 2XL or 3XL wearers, save your TIME & EFFORT: THIS won't fit you...EVER.Sorry, cut I cannot recommend this product. However, Amazon's terrific return policy works well and it will be returned tomorrow with all original tags still factory-attached, packing, etc. so some other hopeful customer can be as disappointed as I was...I hope this review will assist you in carefully investigating the measured flat width of this product BEFORE you order it...and no, it doesn't have the capability of stretching twice it's width...so that hopeful thought must be banished as well... :-( :-(

We only started kayaking this summer and wanted some sun protection. I am glad we had chosen this one. What was pleasantly surprising it's not hot despite synthetic materials. I only wear 100% cotton and become hot if clothing has even 10% of synthetic. Not this one, it stays comfortable on the sun for hours. Of course, if you dip into the water and just let it dry on you - it's even better. Also it is nice to have matching outfit with my wife, and with our inflatable green/blue/grey kayak, too ;)

Well I could say without doub that this is by far the best rash guard I've ever bought, the quality, the it feels, how quickly it dries after swimming it's almost perfection, at first when I had it on for the first time I thought it was a lil bit tigh for me, until I took it to the pool, as soon as I got into the water, I just didn't feel it anymore, it felt comfy in my body and well I couldn't just be more happy with my choise, though I would appreciate seeing different colors to pick since by the time of purchasing it, only black was available, I couldn't be more happy and satisfied with my election.

On the size chart, I'm a M. I'm 5'11" and 168lbs. I couldn't even get the M on it was so small. I returned the M and ordered both L and XL thinking that one would work. These are both super tight. Very tight in the body and the L is tight on my arms. The XL is more comfortable, and I contemplated keeping it, but the arms are too long. The item appears very well made and I like the color mix, but for my comfort level, it's way too small in body and arms.

Fits true to size (buy the size of the t-shirts you wear), feels very comfortable and soft, looks nice, does the job it's intended to do!

Buen producto

I love the premium quality of this product.

Great feeling product. Excellent material. Very tight though. I order 1 size bigger than I normally wear. Really should have gone 2 sizes. Guess I really should exercise :)

Comfortable and not prickly like some polyester rash guards.
