Rashguard

What kind of rash guard do you like wearing . Long sleeve, short sleeve or sleeveless. Loose fit or tight fit. And please post why. And what could be done to improve them.

Thanks
Tim

I like long sleeve, tight rash guards. Usually the back shoulder gets worn out because it gets ripped by the mat, so I guess if thats taken care of, it would make the rashie aot better.

Short sleeved, tight. Reason why is because to me the long sleeved rashguards are no different than short sleeved. Plus short-sleeved are more comfortable for me. Tight because.. well isn't the point of wearing rashguards is for no shirt to get in the way? Plus the tighter it is on the skin the more mobility I have.

No, not really. Just needed to know if there was room for improvement.

Thanks

I prefer short sleeves and tight. I don't like long sleeve since they are such a pain to get on, and sleeveless doesn't solve my normal problem. Last night I wore a sleeveless and have a nive burn on my bicep to prove it... I had forgotten what that felt like, it sucked.

I'd like a rashguard that's easier to get on but still feels tight. They can be a pain to get over my gut... errr, y2k survival pouch. So any way to make a semi-tight rashgard

long sleeve tight for grappling, sleeveless tight for bag work and sparring.

loose fit because.... No one wants to see me in a tight fit, nor am I sure I could get it off...

Tight long sleeve... and I just want to second the notion for some reinforcement on the back shoulder area. I love to play full guard from the botton and most rashguards can only hold out for so long with so much friction on one's back. That being said I love how much long sleeve feels.

Like the Tight fit rashies. I wear both long and short sleeve though. Like em both. Usually wear a long sleeve rashguard if I am working with a sweatshirt on(cutting weight ) Yeah maybe a little reinforcement on the shoulder area, and on the long sleeves, reinforcement on the shoulder and elbow area.
