Some Surfers Are Always Scanning the Horizon
Some people paddle out with a plan. Others just keep an eye on the horizon and wait for the next set to roll in. This rash guard is for that second crowd. Picture an early session at Poʻipū, the trade winds still light, the water glassy before the sun climbs. You pull this on, zip up nothing, and head out with the board under one arm.
The name on the chest is a little nod to the way many of us spend our days. Whether the swell is pumping or the water is flat and calm, there is always something to look for out past the break. The top moves with you through long paddles and quick duck dives, then dries fast when you walk back up the sand toward the car with salt on your skin.

Every piece of the build is aimed at the same goal: a top that stays comfortable from the first paddle to the last wave of the day.
Fit and Sizing
The cut is trim, so this rash guard usually feels best in your regular size. If you like a little extra room, or you plan to layer a shirt over it once you leave the water, consider sizing up. Sizes run from X-Small through 4X-Large, so there is a fit for a wide range of builds. Compare the measurements on our size chart with a fitted top you already own, and check the big and tall surf apparel page for more options.
How to Wear It
Wear it for surfing, paddleboarding, snorkeling, kayaking, or a relaxed day on the sand. It works well as a layer under a wetsuit on cooler mornings at Hanalei, or on its own when the sun is warm and the water is inviting. Pair it with board shorts and a pair of sandals, and you are ready for the walk down to the shore.
Care
Follow the care label inside the garment for washing and drying. Rinsing with fresh water after time in the ocean helps keep the fabric feeling fresh between sessions.
