For kids who'd stay in the water all day if you let them, the Bedhead Swim Classic Bucket is made to keep up. This UPF50+ swim hat is made from quick-drying, chlorine-friendly 85% polyester and 15% elastane swim fabric, with a foam anti-flop brim that holds its shape and stays out of their eyes even when wet.
Both the fabric and finished hat design are tested for UPF protection, so you can feel confident through swimming lessons, pool days, beach trips and backyard water play. The soft stretch fit and adjustable chin strap help keep the hat comfortable through every splash and dash.
BEST SUITED TO: Fully mobile kids who love swimming, beach days, pools and active water play.

SIZE ADVICE
One fact you can be sure of - no two heads are the same! ALWAYS measure your child's head before purchasing to ensure getting the accurate size.
Step 1: Distract the child with a toy or food (so they don't try and help you!).
Step 2: Use a measuring tape to take measurement. Otherwise use a ribbon to take the size then use a ruler to find the measurement.
Step 3: Purchase the size closest to your childs measurement. Our hats are very stretchy and will grow up to 4cm.
FOR EXAMPLE: The child measures 41cms, you will need the 42cm size that will stretch another 4cms up to 46cms - giving plenty of future wear. Purchasing the next size up would be too large and block the childs vision.
