Best Rash Guard Shirts for Men of 2025

"I bought this UV protection shirt for my husband to shield his pale skin during a day at the pool with our granddaughters. The UV coverage was superb! After over three hours in the hot sun, he had no sunburn! He loved the fit and silky feel of the shirt, wet or dry. It dries quickly and doesn’t stick to his skin."

"Let me tell you about my experience with the BALEAF Men's Sun Protection Shirt. From the moment I wore it, I felt protected and comfortable!

"I absolutely love the blue color; it matches many bathing suit bottoms. The quality is great, soft, and it wears and washes well. The short sleeves offer more coverage and sun protection. It's not tight and is easy to put on and off."

"This swim shirt is perfect for my swimming at the Y and the lake. It fits nicely, feels great, and is easy to get on and off even when wet. Plus, I really like the variety of colors available."

"I ordered a large based on the size chart, even though I usually wear an XL t-shirt. The large fits a bit bigger than my usual size but is still comfortable. This lightweight swim shirt dries fast and makes me feel secure while avoiding excessive sunscreen, especially since skin cancer runs in my family."

"I am very satisfied with this shirt. It's incredibly comfortable, fits me perfectly, and I adore the color. The soft fabric really highlights the quality of the product, and it helps prevent sunburn while I'm at the pool."

"I find these shirts incredibly comfortable and they fit perfectly! The fabric keeps me cool, and I’ve managed to stay sunburn-free this summer. They dry quickly after swimming, and I even wear them casually because they look great. Amazing quality for the price, and I will definitely buy more."

"I absolutely love these shirts! They fit perfectly, the colors are vibrant, and the quality is top-notch. Even though I could lose a few pounds, they still look flattering on me. The next day delivery was fantastic, and the price is outstanding! So comfortable that I might order more because my family keeps trying to steal them!"

"I purchased these shirts for my dad for water aerobics, but he loves them so much that he wears them daily in the summer. He appreciates how lightweight they are, even in 115-degree weather. They fit him great at 6'4" and 320 lbs, and although they are a bit loose, he enjoys the relaxed fit!"

"I had to swap my size S for M, but these shirts are fantastic. Affordable and made from light, airy dry-fit material. They’re perfect for hot, sunny, humid days."

"I got these shirts mainly for wearing under other clothes. They are comfortable, fit well, and are a great value. The only odd thing is there are no labels, so I have to be careful in the dark to put them on the right way."

"I bought these for yard work due to their lightweight and high SPF protection. They fit closely, but the sleeves are about 4 to 6 inches too long. I marked the inside collar for quick reference, but I still might have my wife hem them."

"I love these shirts—they've become a staple in my workout wardrobe. The snug yet flexible fit allows for a full range of motion, which is perfect for my high-intensity workouts."

"The shorts fit perfectly! I'm 5'10” and 240 lbs, and the XL size works great for me. However, I did notice that the blue color is not as vibrant as shown in the pictures; it looks more like grey."

"I bought these for my son, who is 6'1" and 171 lbs. They fit him wonderfully, especially with his broad shoulders as a swimmer. He looks fantastic in them!"

“I usually wear a small, but I opted for a medium since it compresses a bit, and it fits perfectly. I was initially apprehensive about the white color due to potential stains, especially in murky water. However, after a year of use, it's still in great shape, and the white hasn't dulled, which is honestly surprising. The material is stretchy and provides a snug fit without feeling restrictive, making it easy to move and put on. It dries quickly, as expected, and there are no signs of wear or tear.”

“This shirt is perfect for coverage while walking around or floating in the pool, keeping me from getting burned in the tropical sun. It’s simple yet effective. I know it gets heavier when wet, but it’s not as heavy as a t-shirt, thanks to the short sleeves. While I haven’t used it under a wetsuit, it offers excellent general sun protection and fits well without accentuating my old-man boobs. This is my second shirt from Speedo—I just wanted another color.”

“I really like this shirt, but I found it to be a bit too big for me. It definitely runs large.”

"This was my first time purchasing a swim shirt from a sports brand, and I must say, Speedo really knows what they’re doing. The shirt is lightweight, soft, and incredibly comfortable. I wore it for two hours at the beach in Florida, and I didn’t get sunburned at all. It clings to my body while in the water, unlike other shirts that balloon up. I’m 5'8" and 145 lbs, and while the small fits perfectly, the medium was too large."

"After a family beach vacation, I found this long sleeve tee to be a life-saver. I usually wear XL, but I ordered a large, and it fit just right. It’s lightweight and cool, providing great coverage and sun protection. I wore it on the beach and a fishing boat, and even when wet, it was comfortable. It does stick a bit when you get out of the water, but it dries quickly. Overall, it’s my new go-to shirt for sun protection."

"I’ve got several Speedo rash guards, but I struggle with their odd sizing. I typically wear a large, but for Speedo, I need a small. It’s a bit frustrating, but the performance of these shirts is fantastic. They dry quickly, are breathable, and I’ve never gotten burned while wearing one. However, sometimes the neck and shoulders feel a bit odd. Still, I love the fabric and how well it holds up against wear."
