Materials & Care
-
The Core Fabric: A premium blend of 82% Nylon and 18% Spandex.
-
Eco-Friendly & Safe: 100% chemical-free UV protection. Our UPF 50+ barrier is achieved through high-density physical weaving, ensuring zero chemical residue rubs off on your dog’s skin.
Garment Care Instructions
To maintain the high-performance cooling effect and UPF 50+ rating for years to come, please follow these simple care steps:
-
Machine Wash Cold: Use a gentle cycle with cold water (below 86°F/30°C) and mild detergent. Wash with like colors.
-
Do Not Bleach or Iron: Harsh chemicals and high heat can damage the elastic Spandex fibers and ruin the cooling properties.
-
Hang to Dry: Avoid the dryer. Nylon dries incredibly fast—simply hang it in the shade, and it will be ready for your next adventure in no time.
-
Rinse After Beach Days: Saltwater and chlorine can degrade fabrics over time. Give the suit a quick rinse in fresh water after a day at the beach or pool.

Does my dog really need a UV sun shirt? Can’t their fur protect them?
While fur offers some coverage, it is not an invisible cloak against harsh UV rays. Dogs with short, thin, or light-colored coats, as well as puppies and seniors, have highly vulnerable skin underneath. Also, many owners shave their dogs in the summer thinking it keeps them cool—but this actually backfires. Shaving exposes their pale skin directly to intense sun, significantly increasing the risk of painful sunburns and long-term skin damage.
Can I just use dog sunscreen instead of a sun suit?
A physical sun suit is actually much safer and more practical! Dogs love to lick their skin, and many canine sunscreens contain toxic ingredients (like Zinc Oxide or Salicylates) that can be harmful if ingested. Plus, once your dog licks it off, the protection is gone. Our sun shirt provides a 100% “lick-safe”, continuous physical barrier that never rubs off, needs no reapplication, and ensures hassle-free, all-day safety.
Won’t my dog overheat wearing a full-body shirt in the summer?
Not at all! The advanced 82% Nylon + 18% Spandex blend is specifically engineered for peak summer heat (even past 90°F). Nylon is naturally moisture-wicking and instantly cool to the touch, while Spandex ensures maximum elasticity for unrestricted running and jumping. Combined with our Ice-Pocket feature, it actively helps regulate your pup’s body temperature. (Pro Tip: To keep your pup extra safe, we always recommend avoiding strenuous outdoor adventures during peak UV hours between 10 AM and 4 PM!)
Is the UPF 50+ protection permanent? Does it contain harmful chemicals?
Our gear features 100% chemical-free, permanent UV protection. Instead of using cheap, temporary surface coatings that wash off over time, our sun defense is woven directly into the structural fibers of the fabric. Engineered from a premium blend of 82% Nylon and 18% Spandex, this high-performance fabric delivers long-lasting, verified UPF 50+ protection (blocking 97% of UVA/UVB rays) that won’t degrade or lose its effectiveness, no matter how many times you wash it. It is completely non-toxic and 100% safe for dogs with sensitive skin.
