As tennis players, we know the sun can be just as much of an opponent in our sport from finding the right SPF and avoiding sun damage. Enter BLOQUV.

Founder and sun sport enthusiast, Corina Biton, joins us in this episode to help educate us on all things UPF apparel. As someone who loves to run, walk, paddleboard and play tennis. After noticing white spots on my arms, she founded BloqUV when finding skin damage even though she always wore long-sleeve T-shirts.

Turns out plain T-shirts only block 5% of the sun’s rays! Corina created BloqUV with BloqTek, their proprietary fabric with minimum Ultraviolet Protection Factor 50 that blocks 98% UVA/UVB rays; the protection is chemical-free, inherent to the fabric and unaffected by laundering.

After 15 years, BloqUV has emerged as a market leader in sun protection: unique in design, fit and sun protection technology; they’re moisture-wicking and quick-dry, allowing for a wide range of uses on land and water!

Learn even more & stay tuned for a chance to win some BloqUV gear!
