Where to buy

Another good option from Volcom on the women’s side, this Volcom Simply Core long sleeve rashie provides a slim fit with a looser, more t-shirt style neckline, perfect for those who feel constricted by the higher necklines of some other rash guards. The Volcom Simply Core rash guard is available in a variety of options with plus and petite sizes available.

This rash guard comes in a range of colors, including toned-down solids and options with patterned sleeves, offering something for everyone’s personal style preferences. As seems to be the trend with women’s rash guards, there is no board short connector.

The logo printed on some of the designs also tends to peel off after a few uses, making it look more worn than it actually is.

A note if ordering this rash guard through Amazon – the listed size types are “regular,” “standard,” and “plus.” Based on reviews from other customers, it seems the “regular” size may actually be sized petite.
