UPF, the clothing equivalent of SPF, gives wearers long-term sun protection while participating in outdoor activities like surfing or hiking
For my legs, it’s SPF leggings or go home. Photo: courtesy of Molly Young Sunscreen is simple in theory and brain-meltingly nuanced in reality. In theory, it should be a substance that you wear to thwart the sun.
Until last year I didn’t know that SPF leggings were a thing. But they are! And among people who use them, they are a fetish object along the lines of an Instant Pot or noise-canceling headphones — a marvelous tool that will materially improve your life if you sit within the target demo. But enough about virtue. The wide waistband means you can pull them up to keep your goods tucked in or scrunch them low on your hips. They are soft and machine washable. They dry in two seconds. I wear these surfing, but also whenever I leave the house in summer and don’t want to put on normal pants. Unlike many leggings, they do not hug the female anatomy indecently, so they are perfect for public-facing activities.
