WHY SUN PROTECTION CLOTHING?
Did you know that according to the Skin Cancer Foundation, skin exposure to the sun causes 91.3M cases of melanoma a year, or the equivalent to 1,001 sold-out events at the Rose Bowl Stadium?
Just under 1/8th of attendees at the 90,888 seat venue would pass away from skin cancer in this scenario.
These figures make skin cancer the most common cancer in the United States. And climate change is beginning to increase these numbers with the World Health Organization, predicting a 10% increase in skin cancer amongst the US population by 2050.
That’s an additional 9M seats filled!
But don’t forget UV protection does not only mean protection against skin cancer. UV protection includes: uneven pigmentation, anti-aging, tattoo discoloration, sun sensitivity from medication, allergies, and more.
