UPF apparel has transformed the way we think about sun protection by seamlessly merging fashion and skincare into one stylish solution. As sun protection has become more widespread, UPF clothing now has a variety of styles that are designed for every season.
At Watskin, we believe you shouldn’t have to sacrifice style for sun protection. Our UPF50+ apparel is designed to be both elevated and effective, offering sun-safe fashion you’ll actually want to wear. From the sunny getaways to snowy escapes, Watskin’s got you covered no matter the season.
Understanding UPF Apparel: Your Skin’s First Line of Defense
Unlike regular clothing, UPF apparel is specifically designed to block harmful UV rays from the sun. UPF stands for “Ultraviolet Protection Factor” and measures how much UV radiation a fabric allows to reach your skin. Not all UPF apparel is made with the same amount of sun protection. Look for clothing with the UPF50+ label to get the most protection out of your UPF apparel.
Every piece designed by Watskin is made with UPF50+ fabric which blocks 98% of harmful UV rays to ensure your skin stays protected. Watskin’s UPF apparel will protect you anywhere under the sun. Whether you’re taking a dip in the pool, jetsetting across the world, or simply running errands.
Sun protection isn’t just for summer. Up to 80% of UV rays can penetrate clouds, and reflective surfaces like snow and water can intensify exposure. That’s why UPF apparel is essential year-round! It’s the easiest and most reliable way to protect your skin from premature aging and sun damage.
UPF Apparel for Every Occasion: What to Wear and When
Gone are the days of limited UPF apparel options. Today's selection of sun protective clothing includes everything from swimsuits and sun hats, to catsuits and athleisure.
No matter what time of year, the sun can still cause damage. Anytime the sun is out, UPF apparel is in. These versatile pieces are designed to fit seamlessly into your lifestyle for every season, destination, and activity. UPF apparel is designed to be your first layer of defense during sunny days and your base layer for overcast or snowy days.
Watskin’s UPF50+ catsuits are the perfect base layer for hitting the slopes or relaxing in the hot tub during your winter getaway. If you’re looking for a versatile piece for your next tropical destination, mix and match Watskin’s UPF50+ tees and bikini bottoms for the perfect swim set.

Seasonal Styling Tips: How to Wear UPF Apparel Year-Round
Here are a few ways we suggest styling your UPF apparel from Watskin throughout the year!
Winter with Watskin
Even though temperatures drop, the sun’s UV rays remain strong, especially in snowy conditions where reflection increases exposure. Our UPF50+ catsuits make the perfect layering piece for your winter getaway. Sleek enough for apres ski lounging and protective enough for sunny slopes or steamy outdoor hot tubs.
Spring with Sun Safety
As spring begins to bloom, embrace light layers and bright colors. Pair a Watskin UPF50+ tee with a matching tennis skirt for a fresh seasonal look that goes from springtime strolls to tennis matches with ease.
Summer Sun Protective Swimwear
When sunny skies shine and the ocean breeze calls, reach for Watskin’s UPF50+ bodysuits, swim sets, and hats. Designed for both in and out of the water, they offer breathable comfort and elevated style. From pickleball to poolside, you’ll be protected everywhere under the sun.
Fall Fashion Favorites
As the weather cools down, layer your UPF apparel for the perfect transitional look. A Watskin UPF50+ bodysuit makes the perfect base layer to pair with denim jeans and your favorite pair of boots. A matching UPF50+ tee and palazzo pant set is a versatile outfit that will keep you comfortable without compromising style. From morning coffee runs to running errands around town and anything else the day throws at you.
