Fits well, if a bit small

It fits my son - it's slightly smaller than the long sleeve shirt we bought last year, same size. I'm giving it 1 star as the zip broke on the last one after a season of sailing (but that didn't stop me from buying another). If it happens again I most likely won't buy it, but the zip closure makes it handy for a quick replacement and it's not very expensive so I think it's worth it.

Pros
  • I love that I don't have to pull a wet shirt over my little one's head. The clasp is perfect.
Cons
  • The zipper on this shirt broke the first time I put it on.

Mom likes it but son doesn't.

This swim shirt is so cute and the 2T fits her perfectly (30 lbs, 33 inches, 18 months). Material of excellent quality. I really like the idea of a zipper and the fact that his skin is protected from lightning by a cloth, but my son doesn't really like it. I tried it on him and he really didn't like the zipper under his neck. He kept pulling on it and yelling for me to take it off. Maybe if the lightning didn't rise so high under the chin?

Pros
  • Well made and perfect for my 20 month old baby!
Cons
  • Rashguard sleeves may be too tight for some kids.

The best rashguards!

Swimzip makes the best rashguards. They are always easy to put on and take off, wash well and most importantly, my child loves wearing them and has never gotten sunburned!

Pros
  • Helps parents keep their children safe and healthy
Cons
  • May not be worth the cost for some families

It's easy to put on and easy to tie.

It was a lifesaver for us during those hot Georgia summer months! It's easy to put on and just zips up instead of pulling it over his head (which he HATES). I love it so much and totally recommend it!

Pros
  • This is my third swim zip purchase and I highly recommend all of their products!
Cons
  • May be too hot to wear in warmer climates

I love SwimZip!: my review

I love SwimZip, turquoise is a beautiful color! I especially love it because it looks great on my son and would look great on my daughter!

Pros
  • Stylish navy blue striped design that kids will love.
Cons
  • May irritate skin in certain areas

love lightning good for me

I love that this zipper is all the way up so it's easier to get on and off (especially since my son has a big head). The material is dense but not too thick and hard. It's a bit big but that's ok, I hope we can use it next year.

Pros
  • It's easier than trying to put sunscreen on a kid who doesn't want anything to do with sunscreen.
Cons
  • May be uncomfortable for children who prefer looser clothing

Excellent rashguard in my review.

Great swimsuit/rashguard with sun protection! The best part is that it zips up the front so there is no need to pull it over your head.

Pros
  • fits perfectly! Love the front zip for my little son
Cons
  • The zipper can get stuck or difficult to use over time

I love swim zip! to my rating.

I love the SwimZip line of products. This is all I bought when my daughter was little. Then my son showed up and I figured I could save a few bucks by buying a rashguard from a reputable store (with the orange logo) and it was awful. SwimZips are great because you don't have to strain to pull them over your head and your arms are free enough to pull the shirt off even when it's wet (and your kid is fighting you).

Pros
  • Great product for sensitive skin
Cons
  • May not provide adequate UV protection

. one for my twins and I am very happy with them

I bought two of these for my twins and am very happy with them. They are kid friendly and offer amazing sun protection. That's my review!

Pros
  • I wish it was a little longer BUT not having to take my wet shirt off to swim over my son's head totally makes up for it!!!
Cons
  • May shrink when washed

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Easy to open when wet!

Great product, very durable! I buy a t-shirt two sizes smaller than my child's t-shirt because it stretches over time and because I like a tighter fit.

Pros
  • Designed to prevent harmful UV rays from reaching the skin.
Cons
  • May be uncomfortable if worn for long periods

This rash guard was perfect! I hardly saw others.

My boy has a very large head and is sensitive to rough facial features, so of course I try to close as many things as possible. This rash guard was perfect! I hardly saw others there.

Pros
  • Very good. I just wish there were more sizes and colors to choose from. Most were sold out.
Cons
  • The color of the dark blue stripe may not appeal to all children.

Lightning is awesome!: my review

I bought this product for my 5 year old daughter to wear over her swimsuit. The zipper is great, so I don't have to pull it over my head. The color was the same as in the picture. Would buy this swim shirt again.

Pros
  • Made from soft, comfortable fabric for everyday wear
Cons
  • Maybe just uncomfortable in general

Other version? the best in my rating

So I thought I'd get a black top with white stitching, but it turned out to be all black with black stitching. Still corresponds to what I was hoping to pair the top with so I'll leave it. I would not have chosen colors over new colors that were never advertised. Other than that, great material, smooth solid zipper, didn't have an issue with peeling paint on the zipper like some experienced ones have, and the fit was just right. I love the lack of struggle with my 12 month old.

Pros
  • Durable and fade resistant material for wear protection
Cons
  • May restrict some children's movement

Aqua color is lighter in my opinion

Aqua color is much lighter than the picture. This is great for my comfort because it matches perfectly with the panties my LO wears.

Pros
  • Makes outdoor activities more enjoyable and safer for children
Cons
  • May not be suitable for children with medical conditions

Accessible! the best in my rating

This top was purchased for my brother who has limited range of motion in his shoulders/arms. It was extremely difficult to take off a wet swim shirt. The front zip makes it easy to put on and take off the shirt. He loves it and it has increased his independence!

Pros
  • Ideal for babies aged 0 to 3 months
Cons
  • May not be as effective as other types of sunscreen.

Good quality! in my opinion

For my 18 month old grandson. He is very tall for his age. He weighs 33 pounds. Fits well. Loved the idea of a zip up rash guard for little kids. Easier to put on and take off.

Pros
  • Love it! It's much easier than sweaters.
Cons
  • May be too expensive for some families

This makes it easier to remove when wet

This swimwear style is the only one we wore all summer. We went to the pool and beach almost every day. It has become much easier to dress and undress a wavy baby. He doesn't like shirts getting stuck on his head. Bought a 4T for a 22 month old boy. A little loose, but not bad. We don't like that it fits like a sausage. If a tight fit is desired, go down one size. It is also larger than its peers.

Pros
  • Well done and I don't have to fight my son!
Cons
  • May not be strong enough to withstand heavy wear and tear

Glad to find a zippered rashguard!

True to size. Easy entry and exit. I ordered white to match a variety of panties and it's a nice solid white - not see through.

Pros
  • Excellent quality and ease of use. Too bad they didn't sell sets and there were more colors/designs/sizes.
Cons
  • The second time my son wore it, the zipper came open from the bottom. So sad because I originally loved this product!

You can't go wrong with this

Good product. Bought a size 3 for my tall 2 year old and it's a bit big but will fit him next year. Easy to put on and take off. His older brother has the same. I also bought a long sleeve, it's great when it's hot.

Pros
  • No skin irritation or chafing thanks to the rash design.
Cons
  • May not provide adequate breathability

Fits well, works as expected

Our child enjoyed wearing the swim shirt, did not complain when wearing it and it was easy to put on and take off. Would recommend to others.

Pros
  • Provides an extra layer of sun protection compared to traditional swimwear.
Cons
  • May not be available in other colors
