FAQs
What’s the difference between boys’ rash tops and swim shirts?
Rash tops are designed specifically for water use and are made to stay comfortable while swimming and playing in the sun. They often include UV-protective fabric and a closer fit to help reduce irritation during extended water time.
Swim shirts are typically lighter and looser in fit, making them a great option for casual water play or wearing around the pool.
How do I choose the right size for boys’ swimwear?
Start with the size guide on each product page and check your child’s height and waist measurements for the best match. Swimwear should feel snug without digging in. If it slips when wet or feels restrictive when dry, it’s not the right fit. For growing kiddos or between sizes, sizing up can offer extra comfort and longer wear.
Do your swimwear pieces offer UV protection?
Some of the brands in our collection like Amanzi offer boys’ swim trunks in Australia with built-in UV protection. It’s best to check each product page for specific UV ratings and details, and remember that swimwear works best alongside sunscreen, hats and shade for all-day sun safety!
Will the colours fade from chlorine or salt water?
Some pieces in this collection are made from quality, chlorine-resistant fabrics. To help colours stay vibrant for longer, always follow the care instructions on the label.
How should I wash and care for swimwear?
Rinse swimwear in fresh water as soon as possible after use to remove chlorine, salt and sunscreen residue, which can break down fibres over time. Wash according to the care label using mild detergent, avoid wringing or tumble drying and lay flat or hang to dry in the shade to help maintain shape, colour and softness.
Are the fabrics quick-drying?
Some of the fabrics in our range are made from quick-drying materials to help reduce time spent in wet clothing. Fabric details and drying properties are listed on each product page where applicable.
Do you restock popular sizes?
We do our best to restock popular styles and sizes whenever possible, especially during the warmer months when swimwear demand is highest. As designs sell quickly, joining our newsletter is a helpful way to stay updated on restocks, new arrivals and seasonal releases.
