Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need sun protective clothing?
Suncream and normal clothes often do not provide you with sufficient sun protection, leaving you exposed to harmful UV radiation. Over exposure to ultraviolet radiation can cause:
- Sunburn
- Premature ageing
- Sun spots
- Skin cancer, including melanoma
- Irreversible skin damage
Equatorsun offers UPF 50+ sun protection clothing that has been rigorously tested. Our clothing has been shown to meet and exceed the Australian and New Zealand standard AS/NZS 4399:1966; ensuring our clothing is sun-safe.
The UPF 50+ rating is equivalent to wearing a permanent layer of broad-spectrum SPF 50+ suncream, except you don't have the trouble of re-applying. So you can relax next time you are in the sun, knowing that you are protected.
What is UPF 50+ protection?
UPF 50+ is the highest rating for sun protection clothing. It means that the fabric blocks 98% of UV rays.
All of our apparel are certified UPF 50+ under the rigorous Australian and New Zealand standard AS/NZS 4399:1966.
Do I need to wear suncream if I am wearing this jacket?
This jacket provides excellent UPF 50+ sun protection, which significantly reduces the risk of sunburn. However, for maximum protection, it's still recommended to use suncream on exposed areas of skin that this doesn’t cover.
Which activities is this jacket suitable for?
This jacket is carefully engineered for a variety of water and outdoor activities, including swimming, hiking, surfing, kayaking, paddleboarding, and snorkelling. Its UPF 50+ protection and chlorine-resistant fabric make it ideal for prolonged exposure to the sun and water.
Additionally, it's comfortable for casual beach outings or other outdoor adventures that require sun protection.
How should I wash and care for it?
To ensure longevity, machine wash the jacket in cold water with mild detergent. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners. Hang to dry in the shade to maintain its colour and elasticity over time.
Is this jacket suitable for my condition?
This jacket perfect for individuals requiring extra sun protection, particularly those with medical conditions that make them more susceptible to UV damage. It offers UPF 50+ sun protection, making it suitable for people with:
- Skin cancers: Basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, melanoma
- Autoimmune diseases: Lupus, scleroderma, dermatomyositis
- Medical treatments: Chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunosuppressive therapies
- Photosensitivity conditions: Actinic keratosis, porokeratosis, vitiligo, eczema, chronic actinic heliodermatitis
- Genetic conditions: Erythropoietic protoporphyria, Bloom syndrome, ichthyoses
This jacket is designed to offer robust sun protection, providing peace of mind for those with specific health needs.
What sets UPF 50+ clothing apart from regular clothing?
Our UPF 50+ clothing offers superior protection by blocking over 97.5% of harmful UV rays, unlike regular clothing, which often provides little or no UV defence. Standard fabrics may let UV rays penetrate, leading to sunburn and long-term skin damage. In contrast, our UPF 50+ clothing and swimwear provides a level of UV protection that is certified and ensures safe exposure during outdoor activities.

Our Story
Over 15 years ago, my mother, Annette founded Equatorsun shortly after receiving a melanoma diagnosis. After a few years, Equatorsun was blossoming, and at the same time Annette was struggling with melanoma. In 2009, Annette lost her life, leaving behind, sadly amongst many other things, a mission to prevent skin cancer. My family have committed to carrying-on her legacy through Equatorsun.
