Product Information
Full details
The Splash About UV Sun & Sea Suit is an essential piece of swimwear designed for active children who spend long days at the beach or pool. It provides the ideal balance of warmth, comfort, and sun protection, allowing kids to swim and play without restriction. While the suit excels at shielding children from wind, sand, and harmful UV rays, users should note that as a lightweight suit, it is designed for comfort and mobility rather than heavy-duty thermal insulation for frigid deep-water diving.

FAQs
Can this suit be worn under a life jacket?
Yes, the thin, flexible material allows for a comfortable fit beneath standard life jackets or buoyancy aids.
Is this suit machine washable?
We recommend hand washing in cold water to preserve the fabric's elasticity and UV blocking capabilities.
Does it provide UPF protection?
Yes, the material is designed to act as a barrier against UV rays, providing vital sun protection during outdoor play.
How do I choose the right size?
The sizes refer to the age group; ensure the fit is snug but allows for full mobility in the shoulders and legs.
Can my child wear a swim nappy underneath?
Yes, the design provides enough flexibility to accommodate a swim nappy for younger children.
Troubleshooting
Zip feels difficult to pull up
Check for trapped fabric or sand in the teeth of the zipper; rinse the zipper area with fresh water to clear debris.
Suit feels tight after drying
Ensure the suit is not left to dry in direct sunlight or a tumble dryer, as heat can shrink synthetic fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your suit, always rinse it thoroughly in fresh, cool water immediately after every use to remove salt, sand, or chlorine residue. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach, as these can degrade the fabric's UV protective properties and elasticity. When drying, always hang the suit in a shaded, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight, which can cause the colors to fade and the material to become brittle. The suit is designed to be worn directly against the skin, making it compatible with swim nappies if needed for younger toddlers.
