What is "MEGA COOUV Summer Snow"?

MEGA COOUV Summer Snow" is a series of arm covers for both men and women. With the concept of "a new era of sun protection," this functional wear brand breaks the conventional concept of sun protection while enduring the heat, and is characterized by its high contact cooling sensation and ultraviolet rays cutting effect.



Product Features

Cool and comfortable to wear

This functional wear was developed based on the concept of "never wanting to take it off even on a hot day.


High ultraviolet ray cut rate

Despite the thinness of the fabric, it boasts a high UV cut rate.

The UV transmittance of UV-A and UV-B waves is 0.001% (black fabric), and even the white fabric, which allows UV rays to pass through more easily than black, has a UV transmittance of 99.8%. (QTEC, a Japanese domestic inspection organization)

The black fabric has a UV-blocking rate of 99.8% (QTEC, Japan's domestic inspection agency), even for white fabric, which allows UV rays to pass through more easily than black.


4-way super stretch function

Originally introduced as functional golf wear, the "MEGA COOUV Summer Snow" series boasts a high contact cooling sensation and was also designed to fit gently without feeling any slippage during swinging. The "4-way super stretch function" can accommodate all kinds of movements, enabling performance in sports other than golf.


Collagen blended

We have succeeded in blending collagen with conventional fabrics, and will begin selling it in select models and colors from 2025. In addition to the conventional function of keeping the wearer cool and protected from UV rays, the addition of collagen, which is also a constituent of the skin, reduces irritation to the skin and makes the wearer more comfortable, even for those with sensitive skin.

In addition, since collagen has a high ability to retain moisture, it is expected to play a role in protecting skin from drying out. Since collagen decreases with age, products containing collagen are often used for the purpose of anti-aging care and beautiful skin, and are thought to support skin elasticity and firmness.
