I use this to keep the sun off my skin. I am currently doing laser hair removal on my upper arms and back of neck/shoulders. This keeps the sun off my back so I don't tan and compromise the ability of the laser to target hair follicles.

Growing old sucks. :)

That aside, this fits tight. I wear an XL but I got an XXL of this shirt and it still fits snug. I like it snug because you don't want a lot of loose clothing in the water. I feel I made the right sizing choice.

Great shirt. Looks nice. I worried I would be the only guy with a swim shirt in the pool but quite a few had them. I think they are a perfectly acceptable (fashionably speaking) accessory in today's water world.

Dry land is not a myth!
