OMNI-SHADE®
Sun Protection
Omni-Shade Columbia Sportswear garments protect against harmful radiation by blocking the sun's dangerous rays. Omni-Shade blocks ultraviolet A and B rays (UVA and UVB), helping to prevent sunburn and long-term skin damage through dense weave construction, UV reflectors and UV absorbing technology.
This is not the case with SPF (Sun Protection Factor), a measure of the reduction in sunburn due to the use of a filter, which does not indicate any protection against UVB rays. UVB rays are much more harmful than UVA and reach us even on cloudy days. Omni-Shade technology provides protection against both UVB and UVA radiation.
Like a sunscreen, Omni-Shade technology has a specific number that indicates the level of sun protection. Unlike a sunscreen, Omni-Shade technology does not wear out. The level of safety increases with a higher Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF), and there are several levels of Omni-Shade protection: UPF 15, UPF 30, UPF 40, and UPF 50+. It's similar to sunscreen, but you don't have to reapply it.
