Our luxuriously soft tanks are all 25% OFF. Same insanely soft fabric as our ONE Shirts, same moisture wicking and UPF 50 protection. Just in tank top form. Perfect for the trail, gym or out and about.
Play Outside creates comfort and performance-first outdoor essentials designed to work across real life, not just one activity or season. Our clothing is sun-safe, versatile, and built to perform from beach to snow, while still feeling soft, flattering, and easy to wear every day.
For the longest life, machine wash cold, hang or lay flat to dry, skip bleach and fabric softener. The bamboo fabric is built for repeat wear, it resists odor, washes clean easily, and is designed to be handed down, not thrown out.
Absolutely. Our pieces are built to perform outdoors in changing conditions, heat, wind, cold, movement, and long days outside. They’re designed to be worn hiking, traveling, playing with kids, or exploring, without needing separate outfits for different activities.
Sun safe apparel is clothing designed to help protect your skin from harmful UV rays. Play Outside's ONE shirt and Tanks use UPF 50+ fabric that blocks 98% of UV rays, meaning sun protection is built directly into the clothing, so you’re protected without extra layers or constant reapplication.
SPF measures how well sunscreen protects your skin.
UPF measures how much UV radiation a fabric blocks.
UPF clothing provides consistent protection that doesn’t wear off, sweat off, or need to be reapplied, making it especially useful for long outdoor days and busy moms on the go.
Play Outside clothing is designed using temperature-regulating bamboo fabric and layer-friendly construction. In warm weather, bamboo stays breathable and helps release heat to keep you cool. In cooler conditions, it stays warm when layered and is moisture wicking keeping you dry even if you sweat, making the same piece comfortable year-round. This allows our clothing to work as a standalone layer in summer and a foundational layer in winter, reducing the need for separate seasonal wardrobes.
Because it's the best for the job. Bamboo fabric is naturally soft, breathable, temperature-regulating, and gentle on skin. It keeps you comfortable in warm weather, layers well in cooler conditions, and feels cozy without the stiffness or itchiness of many traditional outdoor fabrics.
Bamboo viscose is chemically processed, similar to rayon. Not impact-free. But ours is Oeko-Tex certified, outperforms cotton and polyester for all-day outdoor wear, and our customers actually wear it constantly. The garment that gets worn over and over is the most sustainable one you own.
No. The UPF 50+ protection comes from the fabric itself, the fiber and the weave. not a chemical coating, so it doesn't wash out or wear off over time.
Kids' sizes are combined (like T3/T4) and built to last two years: the shirt fits true to the larger size, with cuffed sleeves that fold to fit the smaller size comfortably. The fit is slightly loose on purpose, embrace the comfy slouch. Women's sizes run true to size. Full charts are on every product page.
Every order funds the recycling of two garments out of landfill. That means, in net terms, Play Outside removes more textile waste from the system than it adds. Every time. Not eventually.
We partnered with Osomtex, a textile recycling company turning post-consumer waste into new fibers, because buying less is good, but closing the loop is better.
