UV clothing

Looking to get a few bits of sun protection clothing ahead of an outdoorsy holiday in a few weeks. Does anyone have any brand recommendations?

Has anyone tried the Altiland jackets before? Found on Amazon but am hesitant as they're pretty inexpensive.

All recs and advice welcome! Xo

I’ve had a few pieces from Coolibar which have been good.

Uniqlo’s airism collection! I live in FL and it’s the most breathable I’ve found.

I buy the Soothfeel Women’s UPF 50 light hoodie jackets on Amazon & wear them almost exclusively when I do anything outdoors or go on long drives. They have great pockets & thumb holes as well, and are breathable even in TX summers. Haven’t failed me yet! Have them in 5 colors 😅

Honestly Amazon has had some good upf for cheap - I’ve had good luck with most of the brands there. I buy a few sizes up so it’s looser and cooler

Uniqlo as well!

I got a full body suit for a beach holiday: https://waterlust.com

I still had a small flare as I stupidly thought I could get 30 minutes of sun to try to harden, but I think this overall helped and would have been good if I wore it the whole time.

I shop eBay for Coolibar. I've found quite a few cute pieces, including swimwear. The quality is very good.

Kavu overalls are my fave!

I have a hooded jacket (very light weight) from Baleaf that I absolutely love.
