Photochromic drawing
Some of the colors in the design react with UV light.
When your child goes outside in fine weather, he'll be delighted to see his T-shirt change color!
Sun protection
The best form of sun protection is textile: long sleeves, pants and wide-brimmed hats are the best choice. But don't just wear a T-shirt to be protected: the thickness of the fabric, the density of the mesh and even the color can have an impact on the amount of UV filtered. The UPF 40+/ 50+ label guarantees compliance with the European standard. UPF 40+ means that 97.5% of rays are blocked, 50+ that over 98% of rays are blocked.
Component resistance
Abrasion and rub resistance tests: for example, we use laboratory tests to ensure that fleeces do not pilling. Colorfastness test: dye fastness is checked to ensure that no bleeding is possible on contact with saliva. Aging test: repeated washing must not alter fabric properties, behavior, thickness or appearance.
