About Rynoskin Total Insect Protection Clothing
Snowgrrl has tried other mosquito-repellent products such as the Para-kito wrist band, which offers an easy and natural solution. Coated apparel is another option, which we were excited to hear about and test. Rynoskin was designed to be worn as a base layer beneath clothing to provide protection from insects. This provides the wearer with comfort, breathability, stealth movement and eliminates snags against brush. The insect protection clothing stretches to fit different body sizes.
Initial reaction & testing location
I wore the Rynoskin insect protection long sleeve shirt first on my patio in Denver and I noticed that the bugs were not biting me like crazy. Normally, I rely on Deet and citronella candles surrounding me to protect me from insects. I wore the shirt for the second time in the mountains – Beaver Creek, Colorado. Walking and hiking with the long sleeve shirt under my jacket proved easy and comfortable.

Performance/Room for improvement
The Rynoskin shirt is very comfortable and light. My only problem was that it is totally transparent, so I would not be able to wear it by itself.
Thanks for the comment about it being transparent. I was hoping to wear it by itself, also.
Glad that was helpful! We think it would be fine with a sports bra underneath, but if you are on the shy side, maybe not . . .
