DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The wetshirt
A wetshirt is a technical t-shirt designed for water sports. It gives you the protection of a lycra with the comfortable cut of a t-shirt. Wear it for Kite, Wing, on a boat, or at the beach.
Material
This wetshirt is made from 100% recycled polyester, certified by the Global Recycled Standard (GRS), according to ION. The fabric is quick-drying and provides UV protection, ranging from UPF 35 to 50+ depending on the color.
Slip_Loop
A loop at the lower back threads through your boardshort's drawstring. This keeps the top securely in place in the water.
