About brand

Solumbra is a trusted name in sun-protective clothing, owned and manufactured by Sun Precautions, a company based in Everett, Washington. For over three decades, they’ve focused on creating high-quality apparel specifically designed to shield people from harmful ultraviolet radiation.

What sets Solumbra apart is their commitment to scientifically tested protection. Their products carry UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) ratings of 30+ and higher, with many items offering 100+ SPF protection. This means the fabric blocks up to 99% of UV rays, providing far more reliable coverage than standard clothing or repeated sunscreen applications.

The brand was born from a simple but important idea: sun protection shouldn’t require constant reapplication or feel uncomfortable in warm weather. Solumbra’s fabrics are engineered to be lightweight and breathable while maintaining their protective qualities through years of wear and washing. The protection is woven into the fabric itself, not added as a coating that fades over time.

Solumbra serves people who spend significant time outdoors—whether for work, recreation, or medical necessity. Their customer base includes outdoor enthusiasts, gardeners, athletes, and individuals with sun-sensitive conditions who need dependable protection without compromise. The line has grown from basic hats to include a full range of clothing and accessories, giving people options to protect themselves from head to toe.

The brand maintains rigorous testing standards and works with dermatologists to ensure their products meet real-world needs. Each piece is designed with practical features like packability, moisture-wicking properties, and styles that work for various activities and body types.

FAQ

What does UPF mean and how is it different from SPF?

UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor and measures how much UV radiation penetrates fabric. A UPF 30+ rating means the fabric blocks at least 96.7% of UV rays. SPF is used for sunscreens, while UPF is the standard for clothing and hats.

How long does the sun protection last?

The protection is permanent because it’s built into the fabric itself, not applied as a coating. Your Solumbra hat will maintain its protective qualities for the life of the garment, even after repeated washing.

Can I wash my Solumbra hat?

Yes, most Solumbra hats are machine washable. Check the care label on your specific hat, but generally you can wash in cold water on a gentle cycle and air dry. The UPF protection won’t wash out.

Do I still need sunscreen if I wear a Solumbra hat?

The hat protects the areas it covers—typically your face, neck, and ears depending on the style. You should still use sunscreen on exposed skin like your arms, legs, and any areas the hat doesn’t shade.

What’s the difference between the various hat styles?

Different styles offer varying levels of coverage and fit different activities. Wide-brim hats give maximum face and neck protection, while caps work better for athletic activities. Choose based on where you need coverage and what you’ll be doing.

Are these hats suitable for children?

Sun Precautions makes sun-protective hats in various sizes, including options for kids. Check their full product line for age-appropriate styles and sizing.

I spend weekends fishing and playing golf, and my Solumbra cap has saved me from the constant sunburns I used to get on my neck and ears. It’s comfortable enough that I forget I’m wearing it, but my skin definitely notices the difference.

David C.

Living in Texas means serious sun, and my Solumbra hat has become as essential as my sunglasses. I love that I can throw it in the wash after sweaty outdoor workouts and it comes out perfect every time, still giving me the same protection it did on day one.
