Not sure on spf. But it's effective.. I use it everyday when driving and i get sunburn pretty easily but with these sleeves on, i haven't had any problems getting sunburnt. They dont get itchy and i wash it with my regular clothes in the machine but i put it in a mesh bag so they dont get ruined.

I don't know what the SPF number would be but they are as good as clothing for blocking the sun. You wouldn't get a sunburn. They are a tiny bit itchy after a long day and in very warm weather but basically not itchy. I wash them in the washing machine. I really like them and wear them golfing. Hope this helps.

I have had mine for a while now and I can't tell you what the SPF is but I can tell you so far I have not been sun burned and they do not get itchy on me as to how I wash them I hand wash and hang dry , hope that helps... I have 6 pairs and I really love them.

No they dont. I put them on when facing the sun and it's like not wearing glasses at all. These don't offer protection from sun just from computers.

They are very effective at keeping shirts dry. Heads up that they are a bit itchy though. My first son had no problem with it and my second refused to wear them.

I use them in Fl daily when I play tennis. They prevent sunburn by blocking UV rays (reason I use them). Because you sweat, the high rate of evaporation actually makes it feel that it cools your arms. Would much rather wear these than wear a long sleeve tennis shirt which makes you much warmer.

No, there is no spf. Additional to that, you should always use separate spf by itself. That is what my dermatologists have been recommending me. Also, use it everyday even during the winter ;)

Good Morning. Most of our customers have had no issues machine washing using the gentle or hand wash cycle. Line or lay flat to dry - slight touch up with a steam iron (if needed) and they look great! I am a single dad with 2 boys and use them on my bed. I have had no issues washing them - the ironing part I plead the fifth! Have a wonderful weekend. Craig Fishers Finery Customer Service

This is what the instruction sheet says; "clean your cover with a soft brush and lukewarm water. DO NOT USE SOAP as it may remove the protective coatings added by the factory. Air dry". It also says not to iron and to not use bleach. So I'd assume they are not machine washable. One of my chairs flew during a storm and the cover got mud stains. But after spraying it with the hose, the mud completely washed off.

The shirt has a spf rating of 50. I body surfed in hawaii wearing this shirt and did get burned or tan.

I use warm water on a regular wash cycle. I don't machine dry them, seems like I saw somewhere not to, also not to use hot water, though that might be your first instinct. Most of the time they're completely dry in a couple hours when I hang them over a chair to dry, outside drying is great if your weather permits it.

Yes its a high spf. I even wore it when i went to cancun and my face didnt even get burned. I put regular sunscreen on my body and i got burned on my shoulders and chest. So i was impressed with the sunscreen in this. Trust me it looks flawless on and i love how it goes with your skin color when you tan, so no more switching shades.

I didn't get their SPF lotion, and have achieved a great tan! I use a regular Banana Boat SPF 30, and it's fine.

This one definitely has a color to it and a lower spf. I haven't used any of the supposedly clear ones (and the clear ones are the ones with the higher SPF), so I don't know. They have a kind of fruity smell though, so if that might be bothersome I'd skip them.

They are all very washable. I have had my pink one a few months and still looks new. I also wouldn't recommend leaving your surface in the sun anyway.

Yes i wash everytime. They will still be a little greasy feeling. But it will do just fine. Ive washed at least 10 times no problems yet

I would NOT use this as your only defense against a sunburn, Its meant as a daily moisturizer with spf to protect against daily sun exposure as in ur quick walk down the street or random times outside

Mine have held up in the direct hot South Texas sun with no issues whatsoever! I've tried a few other brands in the past, and these work much better than the others!

I don't sunbathe per se so the lack of SPF is not a problem and I have fair skin. I apply this cream daily and tend to whatever in and out of the sun and don't sunburn so I'm content.
