Our rashguards are built with the same signature fabric as our leggings and are designed to keep you equally protected from stinging ocean critters and the fireball in the sky. Perfect for diving, surfing, or wherever your adventures take you.

The coral reef ecosystems that cover our globe provide essential food and habitat to over 25% of all marine life. The parrotfish is a common animal found among these ecosystems and are a crucial keystone species who are responsible for cleaning the corals from harmful algae. The abundance of parrotfish can be related directly to the health of our coral reef ecosystems.

Advocate Apparel Inspired by the spotted parrotfish (cetoscarus ocellatus)

While parrotfish come in many amazing colors and patterns, this print is inspired by a male, terminal phase spotted parrotfish, native to the Indo-Pacific. Considered the most effective reef grazer, parrotfish serve an important function in maintaining the health of coral reefs. In fact, a 2014 IUCN report surveyed the health of Caribbean coral reefs from 1970-2012 and found that one of the most impactful actions we can take to restore the health of coral reef habitat is to protect parrotfish!

If that isn’t reason enough to love these bright and beautiful fish, an individual poops up to 200 lbs of sand a year, a critical source of sediment for beaches! For example, in Vakkaru Island in the Maldives, a 2015 study found that over 85% of their beach sand had been produced by parrotfish!

Love it! Can’t wait to dive in it!

A little tight and too cropped

I generally wear a size L or XL, and chose a Large based on reviews and the size chart. It was too tight, and too cropped. I love cropped shirts but after trying the top on for only a couple minutes, it rode up. Can't imagine it would work while diving to stay put if it doesn't stay while dry. I think the size would have ended up working if it stretched out a bit when wet like most things do. I wish it had a sticky strip like bike shorts do a long the waist. I returned. Might try out the size XL eventually. The print is incredible!
