Wondering why you need a baby rash vest? Picture this: you're at the beach and your little one has just discovered that sand can go in their mouth and waves are absolutely hilarious. The last thing you need is to worry about whether their sun protection is pulling its weight. That's exactly where a good baby rash top earns its place.
What Makes a Good Baby Rash Guard
Our baby rash guard is made from a polyester and elastane blend, making it soft against skin and stretchy enough for easy wriggling. It’s lightweight too, so it won't slow your little one down in the water.
The long sleeves provide a protective layer against the sun and saltwater, while the fabric provides UPF 40+ sun protection, blocking around 97.5% of UV rays. It conforms to European standard EN13758-2 for both UVA and UVB protection. Every part is OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified, so there are no nasties next to that delicate skin.
It pulls on over the head in seconds, which makes life easier when an excited toddler attempts to escape. As it's designed to coordinate with our reusable swim nappies, you can put together a matching set without any effort at all.
Washing and Care
After your swim, rinse the rash top and store it for up to three days before washing. Machine wash at 40°C alongside your reusable nappies, then air dry or tumble dry on low. Basically the same wash day routine you've already got sorted.
