Robert U. ★★★★★

I've been looking for a UV-protective swim fabric that doesn't feel stiff, and the 50% stretch here is perfect for activewear movement. The 205 gsm weight gives it a nice, substantial feel without being too heavy.

Avery O. ★★★★★

The 92% nylon blend makes this fabric feel really smooth against the skin, and the UV protection is a nice bonus for outdoor wear. I was pleasantly surprised by how well the 50% stretch holds its shape after a few washes.

Victoria M. ★★★★★

The 205 gsm weight feels substantial without being heavy, and the 92/8 nylon-spandex blend holds its shape nicely. I've worn it for a few swims already and the UV protection is a real plus for long days in the sun.
