I was referred to your site by a friend of mine. Having three young children with blond hair and blue eyes, I am constantly trying to find the best sun protection for them. By far, your shirts have won my vote of approval. The material is so soft and silky, my kids never want to take their sun shirts off.

Sizing Information

Little ones all grow differently. Please compare our sizing charts below to your child. We have especially paid close attention to using comfortable, expanding flat-lock stitching to hold the garment together as well as the larger-than-average neck hole for easy in-and-out access.

If you have any hesitation on what size uv swimshirt to buy, a standard answer we give our customers is to go with the typical size you would wear in a “t-shirt”. UV Skinz has mirrored our product sizing after a standard t-shirt, as we have found most people are not looking for tightly fitting, restrictive “rash guards” but instead are wanting something that can be worn comfortably in and out of the water. We have listened to our customers!
