Our take on the Mountain Warehouse Womens UV Rash Guard

A women's long-sleeve rash vest in a stretchy 82% polyamide, 18% elastane knit, rated UPF 50+ for sun protection. Flat seams and a snug, close fit are meant to prevent chafing under a wetsuit or during swims and long days outdoors. It is quick-drying and carries a two-year warranty. At $12.99 at EMS as of November 6, 2026, it is the only new price listed, so there is no recent range to compare against.
