A day of tending the garden, checking fences or heading down the trail can mean hours in the sun, so women’s sun protection clothing deserves a spot in your outdoor routine. Start by looking for garments with a labeled ultraviolet protection factor, or UPF, which tells you how much ultraviolet radiation can pass through the fabric. A UPF 50 rating means the fabric blocks about 98% of UV rays under testing conditions. Not every long-sleeve shirt offers the same protection, so check the label rather than judging by appearance alone. For more coverage, look for women’s sun shirts with long sleeves and higher necklines, along with full-length pants that cover your legs while you work or walk. A comfortable fit that lets you reach, bend and crouch makes it easier to keep covered through chores and afternoon outings. Avoid an overly tight fit that stretches the fabric, since stretching can reduce the protection some fabrics provide. Choosing sun protection clothing for women also means thinking about how each piece fits into the day ahead. For garden work, check that sleeves stay over your wrists as you reach and that your shirt covers your lower back as you bend. For hiking or long walks around the property, look for a comfortable range of motion without gaps in coverage. A broad-brimmed hat can help shade your face, ears and neck, while sunglasses labeled to block both UVA and UVB rays help protect your eyes. Keep in mind that clothing only shields the skin it covers, and wetness, stretching and wear can affect the protection of some garments. Follow the care instructions and any guidance on the UPF label. Pair your women’s sun protective clothing with broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher sunscreen on exposed skin, reapplying at least every two hours and after swimming or sweating, as directed on the label. Take shade breaks, too, especially around midday, and keep your sun protection routine going on cloudy days, since UV rays can still reach your skin.
