Love this! Product arrived on time with prime shipping! Great for protecting little one from the Florida summer sun! Sizing chart is accurate, follow the chart!!!
Perfect for fun in the sun! The material is light and dries very quickly while keeping the sun off of baby's skin. The sleeves are a bit long compared to other 12 month items we have but can easily be rolled up and stay in place well. While my 1 year old is quickly outgrowing other 12 mo items these seem like they'll fit for quite a while longer. Absolutely worth every penny!
This is great. So many of the swim tops we have from carters have a pattern and are short sleeved. I love the son protection of the long sleeve. It's sized a little big but in a way that means the size two is not clingy, I would still order your normal size. I use this to mix and match with most of my son's swim shorts because it's solid and looks good with most of them. I wish I bought two for when this one is wet to wear on the second day swimming though it dries quickly.
I bought this for my toddler to wear on our Caribbean vacation last summer. The fit was as expected. My child is on the small side (5th percentile) so at 18 months, we bought him the 12 month size and it fit just right. The collar is a bit tight for his head, however, so it is a struggle to get on and off which he hates. I bought the lime green color which I find helps me spot him quicker if he were to get lost. As for sun protection, I was blown away. The label says it has a upf of 50+. The only part of his upper body that was tanned were his hands. His torso, back and arms were not tanned at all and this is from hours on the beach. This is much easier than having to constantly reapply sunscreen on an active child. I feel like the rashguard provides better sun protection not to mention that it also helps with preventing mosquito bites because he's covered. I am definitely going to buy larger sizes for this coming summer because the sun protection is great. I will probably size up so we won't have to struggle to get the collar over his head.
I can't say enough about these shirts. I bought two different colors and I got a lot of use out them in just one trip. My little one has more to grow in them so I am excited to use it through Spring and possibly even Summer. I did use this for her to swim in the pool and she looked quite comfortable in. I'll always purchase these from now on instead of a traditional swimsuit.
Love, love, loved having these for my kids on our vacation to the beach! We didn't have to keep lathering them with sunscreen where the shirt covered them. The kids never complained about the shirt comfort. When they were wet and it was breezy, they complained a bit that they were cold, but I think that would have happened if they were just wearing their bathing suits anyway. My only complaint is that the sand gets stuck between the two layers of fabric a little, so the lighter color fabrics show the sand which makes the shirt look a little dirty. I've laundered them numerous times but the sand stays in the fabric. There is a little fading of colors after salt water, chlorine, and laundering over and over. I highly recommend these shirts!!!
I bought this rash guard in a 3T and when I opened the package I thought it looked really small and I thought it would not fit but when I put it on our child it fits perfectly!! It is not tight at all. The sleeves fit just right and it went over his head easily. It is really cute and I love it!! I bought a navy rash guard and a lime green. Both colors are really pretty. The lime green is a true lime green. The only thing I might change is to make the shirt about an inch longer. It does comes to his waist and is ok. 3T is our normal clothes size.
Got this shirt for my grandson and it fits perfectly. He's 35 mos. old and weighs 35 lbs. Great color, looks great on him-- has a cute little whale design on the upper right side. He has several short sleeve swim shirts but was still getting sunburn and sun poisoning on his arms, even with sunscreen. The long sleeves of this shirt cover him all the way to his wrists, without having to coat him in sunscreen-- which I think gave him the rash.
My pasty pale children need all the cover they can get while we are outside. We live in a town that is next to a river, at the beach, with acess to a boat and a pool. We are on the water almost every day. I loved the iplay sunhat that I was already using for my son, so a long sleeve rashguard seemed like a logical addition to his sun wardrobe. He is very comfortable in it and I like that the sleeves are a little long so they actually cover the top of his hands. Iplay has a great selection of colors as well, so I got to pick exactly what I wanted in a color that matches some swim trunks that he already has.
Seems like it’s a good option. My son is a small 6 month old so the 6-12 month is loose on him but it works and he’ll grow into it. I wish they offered one that snapped at the bottom so it’d stay down because we constantly had to pull his shirt down while swimming in the sun. But I can see how that’d be a challenge as it’d need to go outside of the reusable swim diaper. I’m hoping it won’t be as bad once it fits him a little better.
