Every Stitch Has a Meaning
A Rashguard with a Story
One you’ve been asking us for. One we tested in real life and created with love. One we refused to release until it was perfect.
We call her Victoria. 💚
It’s something I (Olena) needed myself — as a mom, and as someone who lives in the sun.
For those between-the-waves moments:
👉 A beach day
👉 A day at the waterpark with kids
👉 Quiet SUP rides or kayaking
👉 A BBQ with friends under the sun
12 Prototypes → Perfection
I wanted something I could slip on and off, that covered my neck better than a floppy hat, that felt protective but comfortable.
So I designed it.
Victoria didn’t happen overnight.
We went through 12 different prototypes to get the fit and shape just right — slim where it should be, relaxed where you need it, comfortable for long sunny days.
Every stitch was made with love and attention to detail — because this wasn’t for a catalog. I created it for myself. For moms. For ocean lovers like you.
Inspired by the Ocean
Victoria was inspired by the luminous Aequorea victoria jellyfish — glowing with quiet strength in the ocean’s dark.
Her colors — light grey with neon accents — echo this glow.
But “Victoria” also means more:
💡 A rare win in development (when it came to the design and colors, Victoria was perfect on the first try)
✨ A wish for victory for Ukraine 💛💙
✨ A nod to the ocean’s beauty
It’s the first thing we pack for the beach now — and soon, it’ll be yours.
This isn’t just another rashguard. This one carries a name and a story.

FAQs
Rash guard is a swim top designed to protect your skin from rashes due to friction or sunburn. They are ideal for watersports like surfing, snorkeling, paddleboarding, and swimming.
Not at all. Many customers use Victoria as their go-to sun layer for vacations, hiking, or any outdoor activity where they want lightweight protection and comfort.
Yes, the length is longer than average, and it typically provides adequate coverage for the torso and may extend beyond the hips, keeping the rash guard secure without riding up due to the silicone line on the hem.
While it is not water-resistant, it is designed to dry quickly.
Absolutely! They are designed for both freshwater and saltwater environments. Make sure you always wash it in salt- and chlorine-free water after each use.
Victoria is designed with a relaxed fit, so it’s perfect for light water activities like SUP, kayaking, or a casual swim. For intense sports like surfing or kitesurfing, we recommend our tighter performance rashguards that won’t shift in the waves.

Yes — Victoria offers UPF 50+ protection, blocking 98% of harmful UVA and UVB rays. You’ll still want sunscreen on exposed areas, but this rash guard covers your neck, shoulders, and arms better than any lotion.
Regular hoodies get heavy and stay wet. Victoria is made with quick-dry, breathable fabric, UPF 50+ sun protection, and smart details like a front zip, thumbholes, and a hood designed for comfort under the sun.
Victoria is a relaxed, standard fit — not compression. It’s designed for comfort, easy movement, and all-day wear on vacation or at the beach. It’s also slightly longer than regular shirts, giving extra coverage that stretches down to cover your bootie.
Our material is designed to be resilient, but chemicals in pools and minerals in natural water bodies can affect color and the UPF layer with time. Proper rinsing and drying can mitigate this issue.
The fabric is generally comfortable and soft against the skin, making it suitable for prolonged use. When the rash guard is wet, it makes you feel comfortable under the hot sun. When you are in colder water, it helps you stay warm. It might get a bit hot if you are wearing the dry rash guard under the sun.
Follow the care instructions to ensure the rash guard's longevity and appearance.
- Hand-rinse your rash guard with cool water right after taking it off.
- Never use hot water, only cool or lukewarm.
- Turn the garment inside out and hand wash using a biodegradable soap.
- It’s best to use a shampoo or cleaner designed for cleaning rash guards or wetsuits.
- Hang dry away from direct sun or heat.
- Don’t fold or ball up the garment because it can weaken the fabric.
- Don’t leave it in the trunk of your car because it can be damaged by heat.

Yes, it is recommended to layer the rash guard with swimsuits or sports bras for added comfort and support, but some people use darker color rash guards without a swim bra.
