Sun-safe fabrics typically include those with a high Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) rating, such as tightly woven materials like polyester, nylon, and certain blends of cotton. Additionally, specialized sun-protective fabrics are often treated with chemical finishes that enhance their UV-blocking capabilities. Darker colors generally provide better protection than lighter shades, and thicker fabrics also tend to shield against UV rays more effectively. Look for clothing labeled with UPF ratings for guaranteed sun protection.

How do you stay safe in the sun?

One of the best things you can do is cover up. The sun's rays are most intense between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Stay indoors during this time, or if you must be outdoors, cover up and wear sunscreen. The Skin Cancer Foundation says that hats and clothing made of dark, tightly woven materials absorb ultraviolet light better than cotton fabrics in lighter shades. Dry fabrics offer more protection than wet ones.
