What does UPF 50+ mean?
UPF 50+ means the fabric provides excellent protection against ultraviolet (UV) radiation, blocking at least 98% of the sun's harmful rays.
Are these shorts suitable for competitive swimming?
While comfortable for general swimming, these bikini shorts are designed more for recreational activities and sun protection rather than competitive racing which may require specialized suits.
Can I wear these shorts for activities other than swimming?
Yes, the UPF protection and comfortable fabric make them suitable for various outdoor activities such as beach volleyball, kayaking, or simply lounging in the sun.
How do I determine the right size?
It is recommended to consult the Regatta sizing guide provided by the retailer. Measure your waist and hips and compare them to the chart.
What is the material composition?
