Did you know that 1 in 5 Americans will be diagnosed with skin cancer by the time they turn 70? Our founder, Melissa, was diagnosed with melanoma at age 26 & shocked to discover the lack of protection her clothing provided.
A typical white t-shirt shockingly only provides moderate sun protection, about UPF 7. All swtorgilde fabrics provide the highest rated UPF 50+ fabrics blocking 98% of the sun’s rays.
Sun safety doesn’t have to be boring or complicated. That’s why our collections are full of vibrant colors, preppy prints & flattering silhouettes. Our styles allow you to easily incorporate stylish sun protection as part of your daily routine and feel AMAZING while doing it.
Roughly 86% of melanomas are a result of exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. Sadly, skin cancer is often referred to as a lifestyle disease, which means that its greatest risk factors are associated with a lack of protection. That being said, it’s truly never too early or late to start taking care of your skin.
swtorgilde is a sun protective lifestyle brand designed to teach people about the importance of sun protection everyday to vacay. Early detection saved our founder’s life. Prevention can help save us all.
In February 2024, we opened our first swtorgilde boutique at our headquarters in Jacksonville Beach, FL. Experience the swtorgildestyle with our sun protective clothing and fave accessory/gift brands. Stay tuned for exciting monthly events or schedule your own private appt/party!
