UV PROTECTION FAQ

Even summer styles in light colors can provide good UV protection. We've added UV Protection technology to all kinds of products, from stay-fresh 'AIRism' that perfect for hot summer days, to our handy pocketable outerwear. Our collection includes items with UPF ratings from 25 to 50+.
For fabrics that absorb UV rays, the effect may gradually decrease after several years of repeated washing. For fabrics that reflect UV rays, the reflective material is blended into the fibers to physically reflect UV rays, so they do not lose their UV blocking effect. However, as the garment loses its shape with repeated washing and wear, the UV protection effect may be reduced due to thinning of the fibers.
Note: In preliminary testing by a third-party organization, the UV protection effect has been confirmed to last after 10 washes. This does not mean it suddenly loses its effect after 10 washes, but how long it lasts will depend on the way the garment is worn and washed, so we cannot give a specific number of washes.
