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. If only we could all sail away to a tropical island for a while! This one will put you in the holiday vibe though!

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.
