I wish they made a long sleeve version.
the size 3X : bottom hem around is 45 inches. Chest ( unstretched ) 46", Might stretch to fit a 58" chest. Sleeve length from side of neck : 18" . Sleeve opening : 13", stretched 16". Neckline opening is 22". Back length is 29".Thickness of fabric is like the average cotton tee, so an exercise bra or bikini top is necessary.

Cute, but doesn’t block sun at all
So this shirt is great for everything except blocking the sun. In fact, it didn’t seem to block it at all making it worse then wearing a regular teeshirt. I’m incredibly disappointed and have no idea how anyone else says it works. Maybe mine is missing something in the fabric? Below are photos from a recent kayaking trip. It was overcast and I was only on the water for 45 minutes.

A winner!
I love this shirt! I have a lot of sun damage and I've had three moles removed over the past year, so I was looking for something that would give a little extra sun protection. This shirt is cute and doesn't feel weird in the water or on the beach when it's drying. My mom actually tried it on and bought one for herself for when she's kayaking. Based on the reviews that said it ran small, I bought a 2x and it's the perfect fit (snug but not tight). I'm 5'11" and typically wear an XL shirt

Wish This Ran True To Size and Wasn't so Form Fitting
Purchased this for my mother who usually wears a 2X. So, I bought her a size up. It's still too small. Let's just say it clings in all the wrong places. And, it's going back. I'm taking my mom on a beach vacation. She is dreading the whole swimsuit thing. We came up with wearing board shorts and a swim shirt over her suit until maybe, just maybe, she gets comfortable. But, we aren't having much luck so far. I purchased my son a swim shirt. My mom liked his! So, I think I'm just going to order one a size down in his. Women's shirts can be too form-fitting. I wish there was a happy medium.

This thing works! Its a lifesaver.
Hey guys! Several years ago I made the mistake of laying out while wearing tanning oil. I'm black but I have medium brown skin. I rubbed oil all over my chest area and laid out for about 20 minutes. Long story short, from this I developed some sort of chronic (undiagnosed) condition where exposure to the sun in either warm or cold weather results in intense itching and burning of my chest area which results in discoloration of the skin. It burns and itches for days! I have to plan ahead always and if I'm not prepared for a change of indoor plans I end up regretting it. I was going on a group vacation last summer and didn't want to be the one person. Saying " can we go inside?" every day. I didn't really think the shirt would work but the price was reasonable so I figured I would try it. I didn't end up needing it for the trip but i used it for the first time last month. Some friends and I went for a walk. We live in TX. It was about 90 degrees, and there was no shade at all. We walked for just under an hour. I was shocked. No itching or burning at all! I have used it for a similar purpose with AWESOME results another 6 or 7 times since then. It is amazing. The only downside is that the shirt is thin but it doesn't breathe super well. So it's a tiny but warm. For me coverage was the most important thing. If you have sun sensitivity issues get this shirt! You won't be disappointed.

It's fits snug on my arms which is perfect for working out in the water
I read the reviews and I purchased a 3X I wear a size 24 swim suit and normally wear a 2x. So I ordered 1 size larger. It's fits snug on my arms which is perfect for working out in the water. The shirt is long enough to go over my hips (if it stays in place during my workout). I purchased this shift to wear during a water aerobics class, the water is to cold for the work out I do and this added the extra layer that was needed. I would highly recommend this shirt to go over your swim suit for water wearing or beach laying.

Tight and clingy
The shoulders and chest fit just slightly smaller than expected, but the waist area is TIGHT. I assume that is by design so as not to billow up in the water, but I can definitely say this is not going to be a flattering look.Also, it didn't dawn on me until I got it, but I'm going to have to come up with some kind of padded sports bra to wear under this.The irony is that I bought this in an attempt to not have all of my abundant assets on display, but being as clingy tight as it is, I don't think I'll be able to hide much.

Fell apart in laundry despite following washing instructions.
The fit was great and i loved the color, but it fell apart in the laundry. I wore it rec kayaking twice, then tossed it in the machine with my other tech clothes. Cold/cold gentle, method detergent. Pulled it out and found the hem stitching came loose and some of the material has degraded.

Perfect for my needs
I love these; I have about 4 of them and they go everywhere with me . I wear them on the beach or at the pool to protect me from the sun (I have had skin cancer) and I also wear them in the water. They dry fairly quickly (in about 2 to 3 hours) and wash well in the washer (I do not put them in the dryer). These fit just a tad smaller than the first one I bought but not enough to be a big deal. Great product.

Bien por lo difícil de conseguir talla plus
Se compro la más grande 3x para persona que es talla 24plus. Queda ajustada. Buena protección solar. Por la talla que es difícil de conseguir está muy bien. Pero en tallas normales regulares … hay mejores opciones en tela y acabados en costuras

Very comfortable.
I wanted a swim top to wear to water aerobics which was both modest and allowed me to move freely. This fits the bill perfectly. It fits quite closely to the body and does not get in the way when exercising. It is easy to rinse out and dries quickly also. I like it so much that I have another one exactly the same on order.
