NIXY Men's Rash Guard UPF 50+ | Built for Paddleboarding, Kayaking & Watersports
Built for watermen who spend real hours on the board. The NIXY Men's Rash Guard UPF 50+ is engineered for paddleboarding, kayaking, and every watersport in between. It is made for long, sun soaked sessions where a regular swim shirt does not cut it. Lightweight, ultra stretch fabric moves with every paddle stroke. UPF 50+ protection blocks 98% of harmful UV rays so you can stay out longer without paying for it the next day.
This is not a beach cover up dressed up as performance gear. It is the layer paddlers, kayakers, surfers, and SUP racers actually reach for.
Designed for Long Days on the Water
Whether you are touring on a SUP, racing a kayak, paddling out at sunrise, or relaxing at the beach, this rash guard is tuned for sustained movement and exposure:
- Paddleboarding: Flat lock seams sit where your arms repeatedly cross your chest, helping prevent shoulder rub during long downwinders or flatwater tours.
- Kayaking: The athletic fit works comfortably with the cockpit and PFD without bunching. Quick dry fabric stays light even after a roll or splash.
- Surfing & SUP surf: Helps reduce wax burn and board chafe across the ribs and chest.
- Snorkeling, swimming, beach days: UPF 50+ coverage across the shoulders, arms, and torso helps keep sunscreen reapplication from taking over your day.
Premium UPF 50+ Performance Fabric
Crafted from a soft, four way stretch performance blend that blocks 98% of UVA and UVB rays. Quick dry technology pulls moisture away from your skin so you stay cool in the sun and warm out of the wind. Reinforced flat lock seams are built to handle the abrasion of a paddle shaft, a kayak coaming, and a salt soaked board deck, season after season.
