1. Sun protection in outdoor pools: Swim shirts, rash guards, and other swimwear provide excellent sun protection for your skin, which is important to prevent sunburns and premature aging of the skin.

2. Modesty: Wearing a swim shirt or rash guard can help maintain modesty while swimming in public pools This is especially important for women who may feel more comfortable with their upper body covered.

3. Comfort: Swimwear designed to be lightweight and quick-drying makes it easy to swim without feeling weighed down by heavy clothing.

4. Safety: Depending on the activity, certain types of swimwear can provide additional safety features such as flotation devices or reflective markings for visibility in low-light conditions.

5. Style: Swimwear comes in a wide variety of colours and patterns that can add some fun add a splash of personality to your swimming experience.

While spending the day in the water or on the beach, swim shirts protect your skin from chafing and sunburn. They are very comfortable both wet or dry, and great for working out in the pool or down at the beach. Aqua Yoga clothing uses fabrics with good stretch ability for easy movement, which will require the fabric to be of a knitted construction.

Swim shirts are now fashionable in indoor pools. Even though there is no need for sun protection, they just look great and feel good in the water.

Drag Shirt for Resistance Swimming

A nylon mesh drag shirt creates a moderate amount of drag when swimming when worn over your swimsuit. This outfit feels great in the pool and is lightweight enough for easy resistance swimming. Afterwards it dries quickly.

Swimming "tea-bag" shirts are usually made in a combination of mesh and polyester fabric. They are typically worn by swimmers as they are quick drying and so are ideal to slip on over a wet swimsuit around the pool.

When you're not in the water you can wear it like a sport shirt. The loose, airy fit is ideal in hot weather. Keep in mind, the mesh fabric has only limited sun protection factor.
