Three tips when buying UV clothes

The NHS recommends that children under six months of age do not spend time in direct sunlight at all. That’s why you should not apply sunscreen to babies.

But there are more reasons to choose UV garments over sunscreen. Sunscreen is washed away by water and perspiration and needs to be reapplied regularly. UV garments keep you protected all day. Full-body UV clothes supplemented with sun protection on hands, feet and face are therefore a good and safe combination

It’s not always easy to know which UV clothes are best. Here are our tips on what to think about when choosing sun protection garments for your child.

  • [Overall UV suit:](/cl/359/ Children-s-Clothing?attr_60456015=60458308) Provides good UV protection for the whole body, reduces the risk of gaps between garments where the sun can reach, is often perceived as being easier and quicker to put on, and is therefore particularly suitable for smaller children.

  • [Two-piece set of UV clothes:](/cl/359/ Children-s-Clothing?attr_60456015=60478358) Easier to adapt and replace if only one part gets wet, often has a longer period of use before it's too small, the parts can also be used separately.

In order for UV clothes to provide good sun protection, it's important that they fit the child correctly. UV garments should be close to the body. But they must not be so tight that the fabric stretches, as this impairs the UV protection.

Tops and overalls with buttons or zips can be easier to get on. Trousers with a drawstring at the waist can be adjusted, so that they stay in place even if they get wet and heavy.

In case you need to wash the UV clothes, here are some tips on how to do so.
