FAQ
Howdo I get tan in a Nordays Swimsuit?
Our modest swimsuits/burkinis are made from our patented smart fiber fabric. Thousands of tiny micro-holes allow the sun to pass through the bathing suit, without being translucent. Some of the UVA rays pass through the fabric and ensure an even tan, while the majority of the harmful UVB rays are blocked. In addition, with the fabric you have a sun protection that comparable to a solar factor of 15 (SFP 15). So you tan from the sun's rays that pass through the fabric, while you are continuously protected with an SPF 15.
The fabric blocks most of the scorching rays and is highly breathable, allowing you to sunbathe in comfort, even in very hot temperatures.
The part of the tunic that overlaps the leggings and where the fabric is doubled lets less sun through for tanning. If you also want to tan in these places, you must ensure that there is 1 layer of dust on your skin when you are sunbathing. That is why it is also important not to roll up the trouser legs and sleeves.
The right size is very important, the fabric must sit close to the skin for optimal sunbathing and tanning and therefore not hang too loose. It is best to consult the size chart and of course we are happy to help you choose the right size.
