Dura Flex Rashies
BUILT TO LAST, DESIGNED TO PROTECT
Most rashies barely last a season becoming faded, stretched, and falling apart by summer’s end. When they lose shape and colour, they also lose their UV protection leaving your skin exposed to UV damage. Dura Flex changes that forever.
Proudly made in Australia, Dura Flex is engineered from an advanced polyester–spandex blend that combines unbeatable UPF 50+ sun protection with strength, softness, and durability that ordinary rashies can’t match.
WHY SHARKSKIN DURA FLEX OUTPERFORMS ORDINARY RASHIES
At Sharkskin, performance isn’t just about appearance, it’s about results. While other brands attempt to imitate our designs, none of the copies can match the innovation, quality, and craftsmanship that defines Sharkskin. Many cheaper, mass-produced alternatives may look similar, but the difference becomes clear the moment you put them to the test. Nylon / lycra rashies are typically less flexible, and far less durable than genuine Sharkskin Dura Flex rash shirts.
Simply put, it may look like Sharkskin but it’s not Sharkskin.
