Protect your child from the sun
Protection from the sun is essential for your child. Probably your child is playing all day in the sun, and it’s extra important to protect them all day from the harmful effects of the radiation. Here are some options to protect your child:
Apply sunscreen every 2 hours, with at least factor 30.
Make sure your child gets some time in the shadow every few hours.
Make sure your child is drinking enough during the day, to prevent burning or a sunstroke.

Frequently asked questions: Swimming T-Shirts
Can you swim in a T-shirt?
In the sea or in your own pool that is fine, and a UV swim shirt is made for exactly that. A regular cotton T-shirt gets heavy when wet and dries slowly. Most Swim Essentials UV swim shirts are made of lightweight, quick-drying fabric with UPF 50+. Public swimming pools sometimes have their own rules for swimwear, so check them before you go.
Which colour of clothing protects best against the sun?
With regular clothing, dark and bright colours usually block more UV radiation than light colours, and a dense fabric protects better than a thin one. With UV swimwear the colour matters less, because the UPF value shows how much radiation the fabric blocks. Choose a UV swim shirt with UPF 50+ and your child has that protection in white or a light print too.
UV swim shirt with short or long sleeves: which one to choose?
A UV swim shirt with long sleeves also protects the arms, so it is the most practical choice for long days in the sun or for babies. A short-sleeved shirt is airier and works well if your child mainly plays in the shade or in the water. We have both with UPF 50+, in sizes 62/68 to 146/152.
Are the UV swim shirts suitable for boys and girls?
Yes. Many of our UV swim shirts are unisex, such as the plain Pure Tones shirts in white, yellow, green and dark blue, among others. The Seastar shirts are also meant for boys and girls. There are also shirts with prints that match the girls swimsuits or the boys swim shorts. All sizes run from 62/68 to 146/152.
What is the difference between a UV swim shirt and a rash guard?
There is no real difference: rash guard or rash vest is another name for a snug-fitting swim shirt worn in the water. At Swim Essentials it is called a UV swim shirt. Our UV swim shirts are made from soft, stretchy, quick-drying fabric with UPF 50+, with short or long sleeves, for children aged roughly 3 months to 12 years.
What do you combine a UV swim shirt with?
A UV swim shirt goes with swim shorts, a swim boxer, a bikini bottom or UV leggings. The plain Pure Tones shirts go with almost any print, and prints such as Seastar, Lila Leopard and Crabby also come back on shorts, boxers, sun hats and water shoes. Add a sun hat or cap, so the head is protected too.
