Blue/ turquoise short-sleeved all-in-one swimsuit

We think our all-in-one suits look great on both boys and girls. We selected our colours deliberately to appeal to all children, and this has the extra benefit that you can pass swimwear between siblings. If there isn’t a photo of a gender in our swimsuits, don’t assume that it isn’t “meant” for that gender. 

Sunburn is painful and miserable for everyone. Sunburn is also a leading cause of skin cancer. Studies have found that only a few significant sunburn episodes in childhood greatly increase the risk of skin cancer in later life, so we know that young sensitive skin needs more protection than older skin that has had greater exposure to the sun. You can protect against sunburn with suncream or protective clothing (including swimwear). Most children hate having suncream applied. Most people don’t put on enough suncream, miss bits or forget to reapply. Sun-protection swimwear means you only need to apply suncream to the bits that aren’t covered by the swimwear – less to do and less to think about. Our signature swimwear fabric has a UPF50+ rating when dry and when wet.

Swimwear fabric isn’t “breathable” so on extremely hot days please be sensible about the risks of heat rashes, but if your child is in and out of water frequently that will alleviate any risk. 

In the same vein, our all-in-ones are not designed as warmth suits, but the extra coverage along the arms and legs will provide a modest amount of warmth when worn in cooler water: perfect if your child is finding their swimming lessons a little too cold. 

Er, no. If you are lucky enough to be somewhere sunny enough to be wearing an all-in-one swimsuit then your body will be receiving enough vitamin D. In fact, better to be wearing protective swimwear that allows your children to experience the outdoors in hot weather than to be stuck indoors: vitamin sea plus vitamin D!
