I've seen some pretty cool white rash guards lately (for example, this one) and would really like to get one, but have heard various things about people buying white and then regretting it (because of staining, etc.). For some of the more knowledgeable people here, is it really that big of a problem and is there any way to slow/eliminate color change? Thanks for your help.
 
I don't like them for a few reasons:
1) they show blood, dirty, and sweat stains.
2) when they get wet they can be see though (showing hair, nipples, and fat)


I like them for a few reasons:
1) you can easily find mat hair and brush it off
2) when they get wet they can be see though (showing your hair, nipples, and muscles)

I see what you did there, you handsome man you......
 
My Manto wave rashie is one of my favorites.
Secret is, don't let people bleed on you when you wear it.
 
I have a white rashguard and as far as I can tell it
 
Thanks for the replies, everyone. I'm not too worried about my nipples and hair (not a lumberjack by any means) showing, but I don't want to spend a bunch of money on a rash guard like this only to have it turn brown in a couple of months. I do wash my stuff after every class, though, so maybe that and a little OxiClean (safe for rash guards?) will keep it in relatively good condition.

SnowMongoose and maros, can I ask how long y'all have had your white rash guards?

I have mine only few months, 3-4. Haven
 
I own a white Tatami and love it. Since I can only wear light-coloured rashies under my judogi that's what I choose.
No problems with staining, see through, etc.
 
I like white rashguards for when I get sweaty people can see my abs. :P
 
Cool, I was expecting more negative comments on staining, etc., but most of you are saying it's not a problem, so I'm probably going to give it a try. Thanks for all the responses.
