Kids' swim hats to protect your little one from the sun's rays

Ensure your child enjoys every moment of seaside fun and poolside play with our collection of kids’ swim hats. Designed with care for babies and children, these hats provide essential protection for delicate skin on sunny days. Combining practical features with charming aesthetics, a swim hat from our range is a holiday essential, allowing for worry-free adventures in and out of the water. The thoughtful designs focus on providing comfort and coverage, so your little one can focus on splashing, digging, and exploring.

Designed for comfort and excellent sun safety

The primary purpose of our swim hats is to shield your child from the sun. Many of our hats are crafted from a material that offers the highest Ultraviolet Protection Factor, UPF 50+. This feature helps block a significant amount of harmful UVA and UVB rays, providing an extra layer of defence for sensitive skin during hours of outdoor play. This high level of protection is an integral feature of the designs, giving you peace of mind while your family enjoys the sunshine.

Thoughtful details for maximum coverage

We understand that children are always on the move. That’s why several swim hat styles incorporate specific design elements to ensure they offer consistent protection. You will find hats with long, protective neck flaps to shield the sensitive skin on the back of the neck, and others with wide brims that keep the sun away from the face, nose, and ears. The construction of each hat is intended to provide shade where it's needed most as your child discovers the joys of the beach or the pool.

A comfortable and secure fit

Comfort is key to ensuring a child is happy to wear a hat. Our swim hats are made from a soft, stretchy fabric blend, typically consisting of polyester and elastane, which allows for a snug yet gentle fit that does not feel restrictive. This stretchy quality means the hat adapts to your child’s head, staying securely in place during energetic splashes and beach games. The lightweight material is ideal for warm weather and is designed to be comfortable when wet in the water and as it dries on land, making it a practical choice for all-day wear.

Charming styles for every little swimmer

Our collection features a variety of swim hat designs to suit your little one’s personality and your practical needs. The range includes legionnaire-style caps with their characteristic neck protection, as well as classic bucket hats with all-around brims for full face shading. These functional shapes are brought to life with our signature prints. Discover hats adorned with delicate florals, sweet cherries, or zesty lemons, alongside a selection of simple, solid colours. These charming designs make it easy to find a perfect match for our swimwear, and alongside our other kids clothes and baby clothes, create a coordinated and delightful look for any water-based outing.

Caring for your swim hat

To keep your swim hat looking its best and to preserve its protective qualities, we recommend rinsing it with cold water after each use. This is particularly important after exposure to chlorinated pool water or saltwater. For a more thorough clean, we advise washing the hat at 30 degrees with similar colours. Following these simple care instructions will help maintain the shape, colour, and qualities of the fabric, ensuring it is ready for many more sunny adventures to come.
