Kanu Surf Men’s Swim Shirt with Short Sleeves – UPF 50+ Rash Guard with Quick-Dry Fabric

Nice weight, fits on the straight looser side (no extreme tapering to the waist). I bought the 2X and was worried about the length but it’s perfect - right at 29.5” inches from shoulder to bottom. The fabric is not super thick - kind of that feel of satiny black athletic shorts, which I think will be nice for hot summer. The side panels are nice, kind of a slimming effect on the side. I ordered a bunch of other swim shirts at the same time that were more traditional thicker material and I like this one the most both for fit and coolness. I don’t know that I would wear it anywhere except for the beach or gym because it has that big stitching but seems quality. The cut is generous. I attached some pics of the chest measurement which maybe is more like a true xl measurement but since the material is kind of stretchy it is true to the size I ordered and would fit up to a 50 chest easily.

Product was worth the cost and money. The product was not damaged and was not destroyed during delivery. The product was handle with care and was dropped off with care. The product color was great and excellent. The product was on time and not delayed. Product material was worth the money or cost. The product size fits perfectly and was the right size. The product durability was great and excellent. The strenthness of the product was great and terrific. The product is great and excellent for sun protection. The cut of the product was great and excellent. The product is easy to put on and off.

I'm 5'11" and 255 lbs with medium build and a good sized potbelly. I bought a size up based on reviews and got the XXL but feel like the XL would have been enough. Just spent a weekend at the Texas Gulf ocean and feel slightly disappointed; mainly due to the size and water retention. The MATERIAL is great and comfortable with no itching, rash or anything like that. SUN protection is great as I am as pale as I ever was where the shirt covered. I spent a few hours out each day and it was 95-105 real feel each day but I didn't get even tan underneath. WATER RETENTION - it wasn't terrible and could be because it fit loosely on my and there was a lot of cloth but I did have to ring it out on all sides while walking back on shore to not have that wet-t-shirt vibe for a bearded male. It definitely wasn't as bad as cotton but more than I expected. DESIGN - i would have preferred a straight black one but the black with gray sides isn't terrible. DURABILITY - heavy use over an extended memorial weekend with good strong gulf waves and it looks like I haven't worn it. Only washed and air dried once thus far. OVERALL: I don't know about the buy a size up but maybe it's because the only thing keeping me out of a large (in my regular tees) is my potbelly and my love handles so perhaps XL would be a technical size up for me, I don't know. But I'll probably be getting an XL next. I will choose another brand if I can get it in all black though this was the best rated swim shirt

This black swim shirt is extremely flattering & stretchy! But it isn't that type of stretch that clings at all. It is extremely functional & dries ridiculously fast! This swim shirt is very light weight & very comfortable to wear. The size is I suppose true to size? I ordered a size larger, it fits comfortably & is not tight at all. Very soft material, dries quickly, water wicks right off of it-- I think you can use this for swimming or working out to be honest! I'm on here ordering another one right now lol. Also, I have washed it (cold wash & hang dry always) and this shirt has not damaged in any way possible! This is my complete honest review! Get it! And for the price, you are getting a quality product!

The Kanu Surf Men’s Short Sleeve UPF 50 Swim Shirt Rash Guard is lightweight, breathable, and very comfortable. It’s perfect for swimming, beach days, or any outdoor activity in the sun. The fit is true to size with good stretch that allows easy movement. It dries quickly and provides solid sun protection without feeling heavy. If you want a comfortable swim shirt that protects you from the sun and looks good, this is a great choice.

I ordered this for my 62 year old brother. He normally wears medium, so that's what I ordered. He was able to squeeze into it but looked like an overstuffed sausage. The arms & upper body were fine, but the torse was incredibly tight. It was nice and soft but I'm sending it back for a large. I can't really say if it provides any sun protection yet but will come back & update the review after we get the replacement & try it in the pool. He's got pale Irish skin & red hair, so he sunburns badly. I'm hoping this will offer protection. Adding on Nov 22, 2023: It does provide sun protection! The replacement arrived & fit him much better. He enjoyed swimming in the pool with my daughter & I over the summer & his body & shoulders never became sunburned. It was comfortable & soft, & it looked good on him.

I really like these swim shirts! I take them with me on vacation to the Dominican Republic. It keeps the sun off my shoulders and chest while I'm in the pool. Saves me from getting burns. The shirt wears very comfortably in the water and dries quickly when you get out.

Came in time and fit as expected. Looks great and works well.

Great shirt at a great price I ordered a Large and XL as was unsure what would actually fit my dad-bod. The Large was a little tight around the beer gut, but it did fit. The XL however, was a perfect fit. I'm planning to buy another in the future.

Perfect swimming top for the larger gents

Previously had cresse but my size unavailable so ordered this one which was poor quality
