UPF 50+ Scarf: Sapphire Blue Sparkle + Black, Elegant UV Sun Protection

You've arrived. Here at the intersection of high fashion and fierce sun protection you'll find the best sun protection for your neck: The Sun Scarf.

All our sun protective scarves are exclusively designed with a bit of attitude - That's right, our attitude is that while SPF is essential for your health, feeling good about how you look every day is essential to your well being.

That's why our SPF scarf is significantly more stylish than a neck gaiter.

With details like hand pleated panels and contrasting colors inspired by mood boards, you can't help but feel oh so stylish and fashionable when you wear our sun protective scarfs to shield your skin from UV exposure and prevent sun damage.

Feel good about how you look and enjoy the peace of mind knowing you're doing all the things to keep you healthy and your skin glowing.
