A day of fun in the sun and surf may put a song in your heart and a smile on your face, but it can leave unprotected skin sunburned and chapped. Wear a Lotus Core Skin Shirt and you can go out for more tomorrow instead of watching the action from under an umbrella. Core Skin shirts are seam-free to prevent chafing, and made of a stretch fabric that will withstand years of exposure to sun and salt. Wear it alone on warm days or as a base layer in colder settings. Form-fitting. [**Also available with short sleeves, see LOT0008.]

Sale Price ... $41.36 subject to confirmation at store

Product Reviews ...

The versatile Lotus Core Skin Shirt is a form-fitting top that can be worn as a stand alone piece on warm days surfing or as a base layer on cold days paddling.



lotus core skin shirt
I've only worn the core skin once, while paddling (appropriately) the South Fork of the American River, near the town of Lotus. I wore the top under a paddling jacket; it is very comfortable (seams are flat, and even turned out at the neck for chafe-free wearing). The fit is VERY snug, but that's functional in this case. The top moves very freely, never bunches, good for athletic paddling. It dries unbelievably fast. One gripe: the top is already showing some wear (after 1 use!), mostly on the neck where it contacted the Velcro from my paddling jacket's neck seal--I'm wondering if the fabric will hold up there with lots of use. Also, the screen printing of the lotus name and logo has already begun to fade a bit (no big deal). Bottom line: a comfortable, functional top for fun in the water. I got a good deal on it here--as is the case with most Patagonia gear, full price is overpriced.
