Skin cancer is the most common cancer in the U.S., and nearly 20 Americans die from melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer, every day.
In addition to seeking shade and applying sunscreen, wearing protective clothing goes a long way in protecting you from the sun’s harmful UV rays, which can increase your risk of skin cancer. However, not all clothing is created equal when it comes to sun protection. Some garments provide better UV protection than others.
To help protect your skin from the sun, dermatologists recommend looking for dense fabrics and dark or bright colors and pairing those with the appropriate accessories.
