My 10 year old son has worn rash guards for years. They are an easy way of providing sun protection during water play. It never occurred to me to get one for myself though until this year. I bought one in white, and I was so impressed, I bought another in blue. The cut is flattering to my less than perfect body. My wife prefers the cut of these rash guards to any of my t shirts. The white is a little see through when wet, but otherwise I'll give these a big thumbs up. Great for going to the beach, canoeing, rafting or any activity where you want a quick drying shirt.
