Solumbra Medical Devices

In preparation for a SCUBA diving trip to Indonesia, I bought myself a big staw hat.... quite a nice one with a nice shape to it, as straw hats go.

This is not just any hat. This is a medical device! Part of a line of "30+ SPF Sun Protective Clothing.

No wonder it costs $57.95 plus tax.

You may have noticed it's been awhile since I last posted here.

It took Solumbra to shake me from my almost year long hybernation....

You see, when I buy something, I enjoy reading about my purchase to find out how smart I am to have picked what it is that I picked.

This hat has a label that touts this hat's protective ability versus other things I always thought gave me total sun protection... like a polo shirt for example. Turns out this hat is 4x better.

Anyway, all was well until I read the following under the Headline CUSTOMER SATISFACTION AND USE.

Let me quote here, " Solubra clothing should protect you from acute sun-induced skin damage, but it cannot reverse the damage already done to your skin from overexposure."

You just can't make this shit up!!

Are their lawyers really worried that someone thinks they are buying a "magic" hat.
