Common questions

Are your products suitable for rowing?

Our products are tested by Olympic rowers, but they work just as well for your weekend sessions. The mineral sticks stay where you put them, and the UPF clothing wicks moisture so you can focus on your stroke.

Is your SPF water resistant?

Yes! LifeJacket’s water-resistant SPF products are designed for sport so they keep up with you and ensure long-lasting protection while rowing.

Do you offer anti-chafe products for rowers?

Yes, our Anti-Chafe Bar is designed to prevent friction, especially around the arms and legs from repetitive rowing movements.

Do I need to wear SPF year round?

UV gets through clouds and bounces off water year-round. Daily SPF keeps you covered for regular training, then step up to SPF 50+ when you're spending long sessions on the water.
