How to Stay Protected during the Summer!

Hikers wearing Helly Hansen UPF clothing to protect against UV rays

    When protecting yourself during the summer most people think to just use sunscreen. However, an extra way to stay protected is wearing UPF clothing along with sunscreen. UPF, Ultraviolet Protection Factor, clothing reduces your skin’s exposure to UV radiation. Our UPF clothing ranges from UPF 30 – 50+. Our Sun Protection clothing ranges from hats, t-shirts, long sleeves, hoodies, and pants! While it is important to apply sunscreen especially for long summer days, wearing protective clothing allows you to stay active and keep enjoying your favorite activity in the height of summer. UPF clothing acts as an extra barrier against UV radiation and never wears off, but this only applies to the parts of the body that the clothing covers. When choosing which color to wear during the summer darker colors absorb UV rays best, which helps block them from your skin. That’s why dark colors are better than light colors for UPF protection.

All of our Solen products are made with S. Café® technology which provides 5x more UV protection than cotton. This technology, with a low-temperature, high-pressure and energy saving process, combines coffee grounds onto the yarn surface and changes the characteristics of the filament allowing the fabric to dry faster.

Since the fabric is constantly moving moisture away from the skin to the outer surface it allows the drying time to be up to 200% faster compared to cotton. This allows our products to keep you dry by having moisture management and breathability. S. Café® technology is able to absorb odors your body produces throughout the day keeping body odor under control!
