Kids Swim Legionnaire Beach Hat - Kahuna

$32.95
by bedhead

Bedhead Swim Legionnaire hats are so soft and comfortable over the ears and back of the neck making them a perfect baby swim hat.

Our swim hats are made of high quality chlorine resistant stretch nylon knit with quick drying ability. Swim hats are best for use in a wet environment - at the beach, lake, swimming pool or splashing about under the hose! If you are looking for a hat for everyday use - we always encourage using our Cotton hats instead (all our hats excluding our range of Swim Hats). A cotton rich hat will be much cooler for everyday use.

The big kahuna – the mother of all waves features on this hat! Paddle out to the surf in our Slate or Marine rash vest for extra sun-safety! Available in Legionnaire and Classic Bucket. Please note, this print is not available in wet bags.

IDEAL FOR: Babies, crawlers and toddlers still taking naps, being held a lot and not very mobile yet. However, we do have bigger sizes for those who prefer this style.

  • Chlorine resistant fabric – pool friendly
  • Rated UPF50+ Excellent Protection
  • Tested in accordance with Australia & New Zealand Standards 4399
  • Sun-Smart recommended brim depths (see tab below for measurements)
  • Made from 100% PBT Nylon stretch knit
  • Wash & Wear - gentle cold machine wash and line dry in the shade
  • 'Return to' label to help hats get home safely
  • Stretch chin strap with adjustable toggle 

NOTE: Chin strap can easily be removed if required without compromising the quality of the hat – you just need scissors!

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.
