The shirt I received does not look like the black one pictured, rather it's white with green sleeves. The fabric feels more like a tee shirt than a typical rash guard. It will be interesting to see how it feels when when wet and how quickly it dries. I plan on using this as swim shirt for sun protection, rather than surfing. The fit is very relaxed. I wear a small and it's rather like a medium, so a little too large for my tastes, I was hoping for a bit more trim fit.
