Does the UPF 50+ protection ever wash out?

The UPF 50+ protection does not wash out.

Our sun protective expertise has allowed us to develop fabrics that filter UV rays mechanically. Thanks to the meticulous choice of textile fibers, their optimized density and our advanced weaving techniques, we guarantee a UPF 50+ protection, without added sunscreens, which persists throughout the life of the product, even after many washes.

To preserve the quality and durability of your product, we recommend that you follow care instructions carefully specified on this product sheet (see above) or on the label.

Do I need to apply sunscreen underneath my UPF 50+ clothing?

With Ker Sun sun protective clothing and accessories, there’s no need to apply sunscreen on covered areas.

However, for full protection, it’s important to apply sunscreen to any exposed skin. We recommend applying sunscreen 30 minutes before sun exposure and reapplying every two hours or after swimming, in accordance with the instructions for the product you’re using.

What sets a Ker Sun UPF 50+ clothing apart from regular ready-to-wear clothing?

Ker Sun's UPF 50+ clothing does more than dress you: it effectively shields you from sun-related risks. This protection is built on three pillars:

  1. Exceptional sun protection: Our clothes are made from UPF 50+ certified fabrics. This long-lasting protection creates a permanent barrier against UV rays, going far beyond what standard ready-to-wear clothing can offer.
  2. Optimal coverage for reinforced protection: Each Ker Sun piece is thoughtfully designed to protect the most sun-exposed areas (arms, neck, hands, face, chest, legs etc.) while maintaining elegance and everyday ease of use.
  3. Maximum comfort, even in hot weather: Designed with heat in mind, our breathable, lightweight fabrics and airflow-friendly cuts help keep you cool while staying shielded from UV rays.

Conventional ready-to-wear clothing, which isn’t designed for sun protection, consistently lacks these benefits. At Ker Sun, our mission centers on creating garments that truly defend you from the sun, allowing everyone to enjoy outdoor activities with peace of mind.

Sehr schönes Hemd habe ich schon genutzt ..

Die erste Lieferung (Hemd) in eine DPD-Station lief super!
Da ich nach einer Hautkrebs-OP nun zur REHA muß (ab 10.09.2024) habe ich noch ein Kapuzenshirt (90€ mit Liferung nach Hause) am 02.09.24 bestellt! Lieferung ist angeblich erfolgt und nicht angekommen ( keine Info wo es angeblich abgegeben wurde)! Im Haus bei den Mitbewohner nachgefragt mit "NULL" Ergebnis.
Nun bin ich seit 05.09.24 in ständigem Kontakt mit KER-SUN und durfte eine Datei ( in englisch) ausfüllen!
Ab 10.09.24 bin ich nicht mehr am Wohnort!
Der Fehler liegt bestimmt nicht zu 100 % bei KER-SUN sondern eher beim Lieferanten! Also für ALLE möglichst nicht nach HAUSE liefern lassen! Ausserdem war ich zum angeblichen Lieferungzeitraum in der Wohnung!

Guten Tag,

Wir entschuldigen uns aufrichtig für das Problem, das Sie mit der Lieferung Ihres Pakets hatten.

Wir führen derzeit eine Untersuchung beim Spediteur durch, um den Standort Ihrer ersten Bestellung zu ermitteln. In der Zwischenzeit haben wir Ihnen angeboten, eine neue Bestellung kostenlos per Express zu versenden, damit Sie diese rechtzeitig erhalten.

Wir stehen Ihnen weiterhin für jegliche Unterstützung zur Verfügung.
Wir verbleiben mit freundlichen Grüßen,
Ihr KER SUN-Team

The buttons fell off

I love the shirt, but immediately of the top buttons fell off, and since the thread is a special color, I’m having difficulty replacing it
