These awesome bucket swim hats are soft and comfortable over the ears, making them THE perfect swim hat for the best protection under the sun!
The unique anti-flop brim ensures the hat is kept away from your little one's eyes, and the clever discreet ponytail slit is such a tidy feature for little girls who want to keep long hair away from their neck.
Made of high quality chlorine-resistant stretch nylon knit with quick drying ability, these hats are definitely made to last!
Swim hats are best for use in a wet environment - at the beach, water play area, swimming pool or just splashing about under the hose!
A sweet piece, this bucket hat features elegant flamingos on a lovely pink background, undoubtedly one of our best-selling designs yet!
If you are looking for a hat for everyday use - we recommend our cotton hats instead. A cotton rich hat will be much cooler for everyday use.

Fit:
One fact you can be sure of - no two heads are the same! ALWAYS measure your child's head before purchasing to ensure you get the most appropriate size.
STEP 1: Distract the child with a toy or food (so they don't try to help you!).
STEP 2: Use a measuring tape to measure the largest circumference around the head. Otherwise, use a ribbon to measure then obtain the length against a ruler.
STEP 3: Purchase the size closest to your child's measurement. Our hats are very stretchy and will grow up to 5cm.
For example: If the child's head circumference measures 41cm, you should purchase the 42cm size. The cotton jersey material allows for some stretch, giving plenty of future wear. Purchasing the next size up (47cm) would be too large, causing the hat to sit poorly on the head, block your child's vision, and discourage them from wearing the hat.
