Benefits of technology

The invention is an outdoor apparel that includes UV-resistant material that traps heat and wicks water. It features a body, head cover, sleeves, and hand covers. The hand covers can be attached to the sleeves or the body, and they are covered with gripping elements. The appliance provides effective sun protection and can be customized to fit the wearer's needs. The technical effects of the invention include protection against UV rays, heat retention, and comfortable wearing experience in outdoor activities.

Problems solved by technology

Long term exposure to the sun may lead to skin degeneration and skin cancer.
Drawbacks to conventional sun protection products are their inability to protect against different elements.
For instance, sun block applied to the skin may partially protect the body against sun damage but may not protect against other elements, which may include wind, water, dirt, and the like.
Further drawbacks include that nearly all applied sun blocking products leave oily residues and tacky surfaces upon which debris may adhere.
