Hi! As heatwave scorches Europe, the second problem I’m a little afraid of (especially as someone without any melanin in my skin) is the sun. I’ve seen someone mentioning a sun shirt but trying to find real information online is very confusing, especially with EU in mind ( I see US has something called UPF) and if you are not looking for ads. Maybe someone knows something about it?

    The structure of the cloth in UV clothes is designed to be opaque to light while being cool, breathable and quick drying. I’ve never gotten a sunburn under my blue jeans and I’m sure they have a quite high UPF, but they are not sun gear in my opinion.
