Platinum Sun’s rash guards are similar in their form and function. They have similar features like being UPF 50+ and having full sublimation. All rash guards should fit tightly. The thicker the fabric is, the tighter the rash guard will feel when worn. However, the rash guards differ because each collection represents the vision of a different designer. The collections may also vary in terms of the cut of the neck, the composition of the fabric and other small features, which are displayed on each product’s page.

 

Wetsuit thickness measurements are in millimeters and run from the center of the suit, (your core or torso) to your extremities (arms and legs). So, for example, on a 3/2MM wetsuit, the core/torso of the wetsuit is 3 millimeters thick. The legs and arms are only 2 millimeters thick. This strikes a balance of keeping you warmest without restricting your limbs with thicker material unnecessarily.
