Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment is designed for easy wear; simply pull it over your child's head as part of their beach outfit. It is compatible with standard swim diapers and trunks. To ensure the longevity of the UPF protection and the fabric, you must hand wash the garment in cold water after every use. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach, as these can compromise the sun-protective coating. Always hang the vest to dry in a shaded area rather than leaving it in direct sunlight when not being worn.
