Sun Protection Gloves

Did you know that one of the areas of your body most affected by UV radiation are your hands? While sunscreen can help protect your skin, sun gloves have one advantage: they don’t rub off or lose their effectiveness throughout the day. At Sunday Afternoons, we have a great selection of sun gloves to choose from.

How do sun gloves provide UV protection?

Sun protection gloves are made of fabric that can protect your skin from harmful UV rays better than regular fabrics. The fabric provides a high level of Ultraviolet Protective Factor (UPF), which can help absorb and filter out UV rays that can cause skin cancer and premature aging of the skin. 

Our sun protection gloves offer both comfort and style. UVSHield Cool Gloves provide UPF 50+ sun protection and have an anti-slip palm print, making them ideal for all outdoor activities. 

Total sun protection with comfort and style—that’s what sets our UVShield line apart. UVShield Cool Gloves offer UPF 50+ sun protection with an anti-slip palm print. These fingerless gloves stretch to fit and are made from chemical-free Coolcore® fabric, so you’ll stay comfortable and protected naturally. Moisture-wicking, easy wash-and-wear fabrics now come in a variety of colors.

Are UV protection gloves breathable and comfortable?

UV protection gloves are both breathable and comfortable. Our gloves are fingerless and stretch to fit any size hand. While wearing gloves during warm months may not sound ideal, these gloves actually provide moisture-wicking and allow for optimal airflow and grip for outdoor activities like biking and hiking. 

Sunday Afternoons’ sun gloves can be worn wherever you go—whether it’s the beach, the woods, or a picnic. You can even use our UV protection gloves for driving while you let the sun pour through your window.

How do I care for my sun gloves?

Machine wash your gloves in cold water with similar colors. Do not bleach, iron, or dry clean to maintain effectiveness.
