FABRIC
All QuenchwearTM styles are made in a soft luxurious knit of 88% polyester and 12% Lycra spandex. The polyester provides a soft hand, durability and comfort. The Lycra spandex, usually found in garments that hug the body like swimsuits and lingerie, provides hidden stretch for comfort and mobility.
The fabrication comes in two weights:
The garments are all machine washable with like colors. Do not use softeners or bleach in the wash. Remove the garment(s) immediately and hang or lay flat to dry. Do not iron or dry clean the garment(s).
NOTE:
The fabrics used by QuenchwearTM have been tested by International UV Testing Labs. The test results indicate that the fabric has a rating of UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) 50+. This is the highest level that can be used in labeling sun protective fabric. This means that the fabric will block greater than 98% UVA rays and greater than 99% UVB rays.
In order to receive the same protection, you would need to apply suntan lotion with an SPF 50 every two hours to block the UVB rays and of course, not all lotions protect against UVA rays. Wearing a QuenchwearTM suntee is the easy alternative to limit the amount of sun damage to your skin.
FIT
There is rarely any consistency in sizing today. Each brand decides how they want their fit. Some fit large so that you feel like you lost inches
right there in the dressing room. Other brands skimp on fabric to save money so it's not surprising that the large feels tight on your medium
body.
QuenchwearTM is fit on a woman's body - a little thicker in the waist with room for hips and thighs (yes, we all have them!).
