Coverage Level

Coolibar is a world leader in sun protective clothing. We are introducing Level of Coverage guidelines to help you choose the right level of coverage for your sensitivity to sun exposure.

All of our products are designed to be layered. For example, a tank top is Level 1, but if you add a jacket you reach Level 3 coverage. All Coolibar products protect you from 98% of UVA/UVB rays.
