rashguards
Surfer's protective tops
Rashguards are close-fitting athletic shirts made from stretchy synthetic fabric, originally designed to protect surfers from board rash and sun exposure.
They've spread to other water sports, martial arts, and general athletic wear.
The tight fit and quick-drying material make them practical for any activity involving friction or prolonged sun: She wore a rashguard under her wetsuit.
