This rashguard engulfs your body with unmatched thermoregulation, muscle support and advanced antimicrobial defense. Engineered with the exclusive Thermawick™ technology, the Mizuchi ™ Rashguard rapidly diffuses sweat to effectively control your body’s core temperature. As a result, you’ll notice a dramatic increase in performance as your warm muscles are capable of achieving an even higher degree of flexibility, power and speed. Intricately knitted with only the best fabrics with specialized tensile properties, these uniquely engineered rashguards easily outperform all other rashguards on the market.
First Impression- I pulled this rashguard out of the box and was immediately impressed by how it looked. I took it out of the plastic that it came in and the material is very soft and seemed thicker than other rashguards that I have. Looks great and I cant wait to try it. I also really enjoyed the japanese theme throughtout this rashguard.
Fit
and Finish- I wear a shirt size medium so that is the size of the rashguard that I got and either my body is sized weird or the rashguard is. I found it to be quite tight on my arms and upper body but looser around my waist and stomach. However the quality and finish of this rashguard are top notch. No threads out of place or loose and the stitching is very high quality. I also noticed this rashguard is longer then most that I have which I think is a good thing as you could get a good tuck into your shorts with out it rolling or creeping up on you. All of the graphics are sub laminated but they seem to be even deeper in to material then most so I highly doubt that they are going to crack or peel.
S
tand up- For stand up this rashguard works excellent. Not only did it stay where it is suppose to it did a very good job of wicking away moisture. I also found that it kept my body just the right temperature as some rashguards I have used in the past have caused me to over heat due to either thickness or how breathable the material is. The more I use this rash guard the more I like it.
Gro
und- This rashguard also works very well on the ground. Once again does an excellent job of wicking away moisture. On the ground it did creep up a little but nothing that I could not deal with and I did not ever have to re-tuck it. I also decided to wear this under a gi and for the most part kept me from getting gi burn. While under the gi it did an excellent job of keeping me just the right temperature.
Pros-
High Quality
Very Breathable material
Good moisture wicking
Sub laminated graphics
Cons-
Weird Sizing
Ove
rall- I really liked this rashguard and other than the odd sizing it is an excellent product. If you are looking for a rashguard at the top of food chain then I would give this one a try. This is definitely a product I would recommend. The price for this is around $60.

i am looking for a made in america rashguard. do you know where the hayabusa is made? thanks for the review.
I believe they are a Canadian company. My Hayabusa shorts were manufactured in in Taiwan.
Great review.
Does the rashguard smell at all? I have an older model Hayabusa with antimicrobial defense and after about 10 times wearing it, it started to smell a bit funny after I had started to sweat.
Not in a bad way, but definately “different”
Thanks,
Matt
