TECHNICAL INFORMATION

UV protection even when wet.

The fabric used in this UV protection product OLAIAN blocks at least 98% of UVB and 95% of UVA rays (UPF 50+). This guarantees effective protection against the sun. It can be used in and out of the water for water sports. UV filtration is generated by the density of the textile fibers, making this protection long-lasting, even after washing.

What does UPF 50+ mean?

UPF is a globally standardized sun protection factor (Ultra Violet Protection Factor). It defines the textile's level of protection, and more precisely the proportion of UV transmission. To meet standards, it must block at least 95% of UV rays. UPF 50+ means that the textile blocks at least 95% of UVA and 98% of UVB rays.

Reduces irritation

These leggings limit friction with the board, particularly at the knees when lying on the board and on the inner thighs when sitting on the board. We've confirmed that irritation is limited during 2-hour sessions.

Stability in the wave

The sheathing waistband keeps the leggings in position even if you fall into the waves. The drawstring at the front of the waistband can be used to connect an anti-UV tee shirt to prevent it from riding up. We recommend the use of a top 500 anti-UV tee shirt (available in short and long sleeves) as a complement to this legging for maximum protection.

Thermicity and wind

The minimum water temperature recommended for this UV protection legging is 21°C. Air temperature may influence this recommendation either upwards or downwards. Our thermal models (over 2h) are made of fleece, neoprene or both. The presence of wind will have an impact that can be annoying as soon as the wind exceeds 15 km/h: in this case, opt for a model with neoprene.

UV-protective water-sports bibtights

Our UV-resistant leggings are designed for the most demanding surfers. Our design choices also make them compatible with other water sports such as swimming, kitesurfing, windsurfing, wakeboarding, waterskiing, active ocean walking (longe-côte) or SUP (stand-up paddle).

Protect the little ones!

Because a child's defense system is met in place after the age of 3, their skin is very sensitive to the sun. For the same exposure, the effects of the sun are 2 to 3 times greater for children than for adults. So it's important to protect them effectively.

Behavior in the sun

Although these leggings provide protection from the sun, phenomena such as reverberation (on water, sand, etc.), heat, time of day, etc. must be taken into account. Wearing leggings doesn't mean you don't need to take appropriate precautions, such as wearing a UV-protective T-shirt, sunglasses, a hat or cap, regular application of a suitable sun cream, and drinking regularly.
