20 Best Rash Guard With Built In Bra (2022 Updated)

I bought this to protect me from the cold winter air while swim training in an outdoor pool. It works fine, and the slight drag it creates assists with strength training. The size (XS) seemed at first to be a little small, but once in the water it was perfect.

If you get hypothermia like me, this could be one solution – and it’s no doubt good too for keeping out UV rays.

I need to cover up from the harmful sun rays. This is nice and lightweight. I would order next size up though. I’m small and ordered a medium which fits very snug/tight. Also, it is white in the picture but it’s really a dull white/greyish color.

Regardless, I’m glad I ordered it!.

Sizing accurate. Feels good on. My daughter is happy with the colour as it will go with anything.

This is a great rashguard with really soft material compared to others I own. Love the length of the sleeves so that shoulders are covered from the sun while still allowing some air to flow through. The length of the torso is enough that your back or stomach are not exposed when moving around playing with kids at the beach.

Great purchase!.

This is my first rashguard and I wish I bought one earlier. I was concerned about the size running big, but it’s true to size. Wore it while snorkeling and at the beach in the Caribbean and it worked great.

It is very comfortable, even when wet. This is my first time buying this brand and since their sizes fit me and the quality is great, I will be looking to purchase more.

Great softest material rash guard I’ve found so far. A bit thin so anything textured underneath will be shown through it but a small thing compared to how comfortable it feels. Beautiful colours (I have the cactus, kingfisher, bright aqua and black).

I always burn when I go to the pool because I forget to reapply sunscreen or can’t get it on my back. I also don’t want to absorb a lot of sunscreen every day. Years ago, I vacationed at a resort where my husband attended a conference all day and couldn’t use the amazing pool because I didn’t have anyone to apply sunscreen on my back.

I even tried one of those crazy applicator wands in those pre-spray days. This item takes care of that. I just went to Cancun where I spent four days at the pool. I DID NOT BURN. It was awesome! It fit well and dried quickly and looked pretty darn great.

It is really hard to find a rash guard for women in most stores and Lands End carries them not only for regular sized women but also for plus size, which I was for many years. Thank you for great quality size-inclusive products.

I brought this in Retro navy to coordinate with the one piece swim suit. I love it. Cool, smooth fabric that lays against my skin without any bother. I had previously worn another sun protective T when swimming and felt their was too much fabric twisting and dragging around me.

This just feels like part of my suit. Bright colors that hold up to pool and ocean activities. Best part was I am no longer self conscious to be out in public in my suit. Only took me to my 60s to feel this way! Ladies, for a long time I didn’t want to be bothered about size issues and having to mail back if it didn’t work.

This time I used their size guide , took my best guess, exchanged once , and got a perfect fit. Just start the process earlier so you don’t fall into a time crunch. Thanks Lands End.

I have lost count of the number of UPF 50 articles of clothing I now have: dresses, pants, and rash guards. It’s got to be over 50! Each year I vow not to buy more, but can’t resist the cute styles and wonderful colors! They are SO reasonably priced on sale!! They are stylish, well made, and very easy care.

I can toss them into the machine or hand wash them, hang them up, and wear them a few hours later if I wish. I wear them with everything and for almost every occasion. They can be casual or dressy. They always look great!! AND they are wonderful for a person of any age! I am pushing 76 and always get complements on my Land’s End clothing and the way I look in it!!! PLUS, it saves a lot of $$ on sunscreen (which can also be messy!) and helps keep my skin from those pesky spots and wrinkles!!! You can’t lose by buying this product!.

I love this swimsuit! I’m always looking for pretty long sleeve swimwear because I prefer to be more protected from the sun and this suit fit the bill. Not only is the pattern beautiful, the quality of the material is great and it fits perfectly.

I was glad they included the size the model is wearing for reference since that helped me decide between 2 sizes. I was a little worried the open back wouldn’t be very supportive, but the soft cups do help to hold everything up and in.

Will definitely be purchasing from Albion again!.

First off, this print is absolutely adorable!! I was so impressed with how comfortable this one piece was, and how smooth the quality is. I wore it surfing, and it provides plenty of coverage on the bum, and I didn’t have any issues with the back being open.

The high neck is also a plus!! Super cute & Unique. Love it!.

This is my second suit through Albion. My first was the Dorothy suit. I love it ! I get so many compliments on it. I got a matching one piece for my granddaughter in this new style. I love the blue and white in this suit.

Love the sleeves for protection from the sun.

I have been wearing this rash guard jacket over my swimsuit while surfing for a couple of weeks now. It’s fantastic—a little thicker than my usual rashguards, so it provides a bit more protection and a little extra warmth, so I feel like it’s a nice “in between” choice between my thinner rashguards and my 1mm neoprene jacket.

The thumb holes give me extra coverage and keep the sleeves from riding up. I like the padding across the chest, as it makes paddling on my surfboard more comfortable. The zipper doesn’t bother me at all.

And the pink pattern is fun and unusual. I love it and will likely buy another next time I need a new rashguard.

I bought this in the beautiful green palms print with the flattering dark side panels. I swim every day yearround in my own pool and need sun protection, but need a top that’s easy to get on and off (front zip) and has a bra so I don’t need to add a bathing suit top underneath.

The escalante with the matching reversible bottom is perfect! Also great with the comfy tulip leggings. I waited for the sales and was concerned that I might have missed my chance to get the size I need.

Some reviewers recommended sizing up, especially if full-busted. I ordered my regular size and it fits perfectly. LOVE THIS! as always, all the details/finish work of Coolibar products is/are perfect.

Note: I have long arms and this fits my arms. Also, it is a light fabric, especially compared to my Coolibar rash top (without a bra), so it will not provide warmth, but I will add a scuba vest or jacket over it if needed during chillier months.

Please continue to offer pretty prints and tops with bras.

Absolutely mis-sized. I’ve have 3 Xsmall water zip up jackets that fit perfectly and were not tight. However this 4th one I’ve ordered is so tight and tiny throughout then shoulders and body. Unable to pull together to zip close.

Zippered front pieces are 4 inches apart, thus unable to zip. I’ve also bought a Xsmall rash guard that fit perfectly. I think this one is mis sized. However bought on clearance which is noted as unable to exchange.

Sad. Unbelievable!.

Fits true to size, the XL fit over my chest without being too tight or pulling on the zipper (my usual issue with swimwear). I generally hate wearing skin tight clothes, especially long sleeves, but I hate the idea of skin cancer more so this goes on every time.

It’s more comfortable than expected and at this point I don’t even notice I’m wearing it. Keeps me burn free (though I still put sunscreen on under it), and is lightweight and dries off really fast if I decide to hop in the water to cool off.

The cross front (upper chest/above the bust) is too tight–there isn’t enough room for me to comfortably paddle/move with it zipped all the way up. It’s fine when it’s partially open but I purchased this for sun protection.

It’s pretty obvious in photos once you look for it, unfortunately I didn’t notice until after it was purchased. Sizing up fixes the issue but then it’s terribly loose everywhere else.

I got the black and white striped one. Look perfect. Very comfortable. I wear this outside my one piece swimsuit. It keeps me warm when I get out of the water and cool under the sun. Also a good cover that I can walk home from the pool in swimsuit with this shirt without changing to normal clothes.

I bought two jackets in early spring to use for sun protection and beach cover-ups. They are lightweight and soft. The pull-over hood is great for extra sun & wind protection. An unexpected bonus use for these was on a month-long summer trip to England and Ireland.

The jacket is perfect to add a layer of clothing on an airplane, and the fabric is so soft that my elbows didn’t chafe while wearing it on the long flight and leaning on the armrests. The best part is that jacket is lightweight and easily rolls up – and was perfect for carrying in a day pack – to have on hand when the European temperatures changed fast and I needed an extra layer.

It is thin enough that I could wear it over my cotton t-shirt and even over a long-sleeved t-shirt – yet it still fit perfectly UNDER my denim jacket and raingear. A perfect extra layer to carry all day long for weather in the 60’s (but definitely would NOT be your only layer).

Great sun protection too! It is too loose-fitting to swim in, but fine for a dip in the water. Finally, it is quick drying! I just cannot say enough good things about this jacket. I purchased a black one and a black-and-white gingham.

I’ve been looking for a lightweight spring and summer top to wear as sun protection here in the South. This rash guard is perfect. I throw it on whatever I’m wearing when I go to the store and run errands.

The white goes with everything! I got 2 in my regular size Medium so I’d have one to wear while the other is drying overnight, and another in a Large to wear over my swimsuit. Not too hot to wear outside and feels good in the air conditioning too.

I do hand wash, as is recommended, and it’s worth the time and effort to keep this rash guard in good condition. Thank you LandsEnd.

Love this rash Guard with UPF. This is actually the 5th one I’ve bought, but first time writing a review on it. I’ve ordered 3 white and 2 black. I’m 5’1” 200lbs and I’ve bought the Petite XL which fit perfect in sleeves but tight when zipped and I don’t like anything tight, so I ordered the 1X and zipping it closed fit perfect but sleeves are too long.

Either way I would still order again, because I love that its UPF, light, comfortable and serves what I need and LE customer service is excellent. Living in Texas it’s super hot, and I can not be out in the heat and Sun very long for medical reasons.

I wash and hang to dry, and dries fast.

I bought this before going on vacation. I always am cold in the ocean and finally decided to purchase a long sleeve rash guard. I have athletic shoulders and go between a size small and medium. In t-shirts, I usually prefer a size medium.

I bought this in both sizes and kept the small. The shirt seems to run a little big. The size small is not too tight and is very flattering with the gathers on the sides. I love the colors, the feel and the look! Highly recommend this!.

Nicely made, cute rashguard with ruching. The TruFit tool suggested that I size up; this is WRONG. I did size up, it was enormous, and I returned for a smaller size. I think the other reviewers don’t know what a rashguard is — its meant to fit snugly or skim your body, to protect your stomach when you lie on your surfboard, ie.

to guard against surfboard rash. The rashguard will grow/stretch a little bit when wet. Its meant to be worn OVER a top, not as a top — so no built-in bra. The comments about this being sheer or indecent — jeez, those people do not know what they are ordering.

Get your usual size or for a true surfer fit, go down a size.

I’ll start by saying I’m very fair-skinned, so full sun exposure is not an option for me. This rashguard really helps. So far, it’s given me flawless protection for a day at the beach and another day at the water park.

It’s soft and comfortable. It stays put. The quarter zip is a nice feature. And I sized up for length — I’m 5’10” and the sleeves come all the way to my wrists. The white with black stripe is a great colorway — stays cool but also goes with pretty much anything.

And the white isn’t see through — I wore a black suit underneath and it didn’t show through.

I really liked the fabric and design, but the size was way too large. I followed the size guide and got a medium, but clearly needed a small, maybe even an X-S. I’d say the size guide cannot be applied to this product, meaning the product runs one or two sizes larger than the size guide.

Also, the snaps at the collar were extremely tight and hard to operate. I could not separate the snaps by prying with a fingernail, and so I had to pull on the fabric to get them to unsnap and open. I fear that the snaps would pull through the fabric with just a few openings.

The snaps are metal, and no reinforcement is built in to help resist having the snaps tear out of the fabric. The fabric seemed very high quality, a lovely color, texture and weight for swimming, and quite well sewn.

I liked the pockets very much. I would think about getting this in a version without snaps and now that I know not to count on the size guidance provided. I was surprised that I would need to pay something like $7 to ship the rash guard back, given that the snap situation was a design defect, IMO.

I very much like the other items I have received from Coolibar, btw.

The Pros: 1) Quality of fabric is excellent. 2) Mock turtleneck style The Cons: 1) The fit is poor; the bottom hem is too wide and will ride up on you while swimming or doing water activities like snorkeling.

2) The half zipper is too short. Extremely difficult to pull on/off and not possible with a pair of glasses on your face. 3) This rash guard still does not have thumb holes! These are needed to protect the top of the hands.

4) Zipper pocket is unnecessary. If you’re someone that is going to sit at the pool and not be active, this shirt would be fine. If you want the shirt to ‘perform’ and ‘work’ in the water while swimming, snorkeling, etc.

this is NOT the rash guard. Shop elsewhere. There are other brands much less expensive, fabric/UPF quality just as good, but more importantly they have a MUCH better fit/design than Coolibar.

I’m not sure I ordered the right product. I ordered a long swim shirt that was too tight from another company. I thought this product would be a better fit and include a bra. I didn’t realize it was truly just to go over a bathing suit.

To be fair, my rating is probably based on m expectations from the company I normally order from. I don’t line the tight tight long sleeve swimsuits and am looking for a long sleeve or short sleeve swimsuit for exercise so I don’t have to wear sunblock or another suit underneath.

The fit was very loose, which I ordered up so I would get a super tight fit. I guess I’ll keep searching.

i usually only buy bathing suits at TJ Maxx or other low cost vendors but I’ve been searching and searching for a skirt-tini. When an Amex offer popped up for La Blanca, i checked it out and made this purchase.

I tried a size 6 and 8 for the bottom (went with 8) and small and medium in rashguard (went with small) La Blanca made returns incredibly easy. i highly recommend.

I love this rash guard. I am 5’7″, 135 lbs, 36B, long arms, long torso. A medium is a close fit in the body, but fine in the arms and shoulders so I am keeping it b/c I think a large would be too big overall.

If you are chesty or just want your rash guards to be looser, I would perhaps size up. The pattern is gorgeous and it’s very well-made. The gold zipper is pretty, but I do feel it on my chest. Wish it were a lighter weight zipper.

Love this! The print is gorgeous and the fit is TTS. I live in swim tees & rash guards for SUP yoga and this is my new fave. Great sun protection and it stays put in all of my poses.

I bought both the pink and blue to wear over my swimsuit walk inside the gym. It’s perfect because the long sleeves and longer length protect me from the cold blast of air-conditioning when entering the gym on my way to the pool area and a perfectly cute cover up with its longer modest length.

Love that I can adjust it shorter to wear as a regular tunic top.

I bought this for an upcoming vacation. I bought my regular size, but the length of this rash guard is strange. I could wear it as a short dress. The pink gingham is cute and fresh looking. That is my only complaint.

too much ruching and when ruching is undone, way too long.

Paired this with the apple bossom pink swim skort as cover up. It’s cute and funtional. Like the colors Need the adjustable sides, as it’s quite long. Good for running errands after the pool. paying extra for the Draper James name.

It is a nice material, correct size, fulfills our expectations

Thank You

It’s probably fine for nursing and the earlier months of pregnancy but after 6 months or so it isn’t long enough. I ordered a full size up to leave room but still too short. I needed something that would last the whole 9 months and at 5.

5 months, my belly is sticking out the bottom. I have two other maternity suit tops that fully cover my belly with room to grow but leave my shoulders/upper chest exposed.

Another great item from Coolibar. The $$ I save from not having to purchase sunscreen, the time I save from not having to apply and reapply sunscreen, makes me very happy to have found Coolibar. And they wear very well.

I still have my very first rash guard pants and jacket I purchased 20 years ago. And it still has the sun protection I need. I have 2 more rash guard sets and just rinsing them well after each use, keeps them protecting my skin.

My latest purchase, the escalante tie die blue with vertical stripes in the front is really nice. Sliming and a really nice color. I had long pants in the exact same blue color and I’m very happy with it.

I look forward to more vertical stripes being offered from coolibar.

As always, excellent quality. The only problem is it runs too small! I am a long time Coolibar customer, always buy XS in everything, so did this time. I understand this mean to be a swimming wear, tight, but it is just too tight everywhere, body, arm, neck, I felt suffocated.

So I have to pay shipping to have it returned and get a size S. Even that still feels tight, but bearable. Just a reference, I am 5’2″, 107lbs; I have own at least two Coolibar rash guard jackets in the past few years.

I have at least 8 of these in black, white & polka dot. This checkered fabric doesn’t seem the same UV material as the others. The workmanship is not as good. The pattern doesn’t match. I had to send it back because one pocket had an inverted edge that stuck out from the garment.

Also, where the zipper met the garments was puckered and didn’t lay flat. I buy new patterns that are flattering for a heavier figure. NOT horizontal stripes!! I thought that this new fabric would be flattering.

I hope that if and when they send a replacement, that the workmanship is like the others.

I bought this for beach wear, but find it’s an excellent work out top. The high collar keeps the sun off my neck and the long sleeves protect my arms. I ended up going a size up and am happening I did.

Loose and comfortable with exercise. I agree with a previous reviewer- the top needs thumb holes as well as a pocket that can be secured with zipper or snap. I gave it 4 stars due to not having those features.

I would be willing to pay more for those features. I just ordered two more in additional colors.

I have been looking for a tunic length rash guard shirt to wear for some time and thought I’d hit the jackpot with these — almost, but not quite. I love the top and the stand up collar, and the length is great.

I wore it with White pants and dressy sandals for a business casual work event, and I also wore it to go white water rafting and on a cool day. Very comfortable and transitions well between sporty activities and nicer activities.

The problem is the pockets. I love the concept of the pockets, but the location on which they’re placed and the way they are sewn into the top really emphasize and white in your hips in an unflattering way.

For that reason, I almost returned the top. If this could be worked out and the bottom of the tunic and the pockets could beDesigned in a way to give you a more sleek look, this tunic would be perfect and I would buy it in multiple colors even at full price!.

The description on rei. com is nylon and spandex, but the tag says it is recycled polyester. I ordered the white shirt and its tags say it is recycled plastic made into polyester. Here on website this shirt is described as nylon.

It is a great fit and has a double zipper, which is a feature I love. But polyester feels really hot to me while nylon is cool so I will have to return.

Carve Designs hit it out of the park with this one. Very versatile for travelling. I wore it as a light jacket, a sun shirt, and in the water as a rash guard. The fit is great and TTS – a bit looser than a traditional rash guard; the full zipper is perfect for easy on/off.

Oh, and ZIPPERED POCKETS! I rinsed it out and air dried overnight after full days in the ocean and it was stink-free and dry by morning. Love it!.

This is the fourth Lake Sunshirt I’ve purchased in the last year. Absolutely love them for a light garment for walking, hiking, and pickleball. They have a flattering fit. One slightly weird thing about my most recent purchase: the zipper pull is on the left side.

All others have been on the right. Not a problem – just strange.

I live in Albuquerque and use a mountain bike to commute to work. I tried it out to keep me out of the sun and now I buy a new one every week. I have 4 and am going to buy 2 more. Heads up the seam on one of the hoods came loose, nothing some simple sewing skills can repair.

I use my gear so no surprise one seam came loose.

Awesome shirt!! Love the brand. Perfect size/ fit and colors. The hoodie comes in handy for extra protection against the sun. Handle with care, cold wash and air try. The blue color rashguard will bleed and the white rashguard is more like an off white color.

I would still highly recommend.

I wore this everywhere on vacation. I wore an extra large which is more roomy, but that works very well giving plenty of room to take it on and off. The hood is a great addition as it provides more coverage for the neck and head if necessary.

I’m logging on to buy a second right now.

I wear lots of rash guards and this one is a keeper! Fits great and doesn’t stretch out in the water. The material feels super comfortable. This is not a super light/thin rash guard but nor is it a thick heavy one.

Best for warmer water conditions. My only wish is that it had thumbholes as Athleta often uses for rashguards. Please add those next time as it keeps your hands out of the sun and also keeps them warmer in the water.

Many people said this garment is much too small or tight but that is what a rash guard is supposed to be. You usually are wearing a rash guard in the water so want it to be a snug fit. If you are simply looking for a sun top, this probably isn’t a good choice.

I bought this to replace a similar Athleta rashguard from about 5 years ago. It is almost identical( color, style, fit) and lasted quite a long time without fading and minimal chlorine damage. I like them tight to swim laps in so I bought several new ones this year.

I have had skin cancer so when I swim in the summer when the UV is high, I try to wear a rash guard sometimes instead of slathering on sunscreen. The high neck is very practical too. I have bought other rash guards but Athleta ones seem to last longer.

I bought from Athleta because I thought I would be getting a product that would last me years. However, within only a few months of using this rash guard for swimming, the thread has discolored to be a brown color.

Aesthetically, it’s not a huge problem, BUT it has left stains in the rack I use to dry my swimwear. Admittedly, this next bit is partially my fault (I used a swimsuit spinner TWICE) but there are places in the suit where the thread has already ripped.

This is a great rashguard! Super flattering and easy to get on and off. I originally ordered the blue and went back and ordered the white as well. For reference, I am 5’8″, 137 lbs, 34C with broad shoulders, and I normally wear a size 4 in tops.

This rashguard fits perfectly in a size 6.

This is a great Rashguard for Sun protection while doing SUP, hanging at the pool or beach. It is probably not great for warmth though. I have the black color and am going to order the white one as well.

I did get one size bigger than I normally wear so I would have some extra room. The zipper is an added bonus. I would definitely recommend this Rashgurard.

Bought this for an upcoming trip to Hawaii. Haven’t used this top yet, but the quality of the material is wonderful and this fit exactly how you’d want a rashguard to fit. snug but not skin tight. We’ll see how I feel after using it in the water, but the quality of this product is definitely evident.

I would love to have this top. so much that I’ve attempted to order it TWICE. Both times, I was shipped a completely different top (which I already own and like). The incorrect top was tagged and in a poly bag with sku sticker that reflects this top, however it was a short sleeve, crew neck, no zipper.

Both times. Please fix this in your DC so that I can happily purchase this top and receive the correct one:).

This rash guard is beautiful and good quality. I am always an XS in Gap and the XS fits perfectly. I am 5’3″ and around 115 pounds and I am a 34C. It’s a rash guard, so it is designed to fit over a swim top; it has no support and I wasn’t expecting support in it.

The bottom of the zipper doesn’t dig in which was a pleasant surprise. The top hits at the perfect spot to show off your stomach without being too revealing. It’s a beautiful color and will be a go to in my summer closet this year for sure!.

I need a long sleeve bathing suit for this summer. I am having a tattoo removed so need to cover it, during the process. Anyway, it has zero support for your chest. Other than that it was cute and fit good.

But I need some support. Most suits have it.
