Whether we are spending the Summer in Vancouver or fleeing the Winter cold to a much hotter climate, we always make sure to take our Stonz wear with us. Because we want to protect our kid’s skin from the sun’s harmful UV rays whenever they are outdoors. Stonz is a local, Vancouver brand and their mission is simple: to make it easier for families to get outside, regardless of the weather.
We’ve been using Stonz sunwear for a couple seasons now and I really love the quality. The first thing I noticed is that the fabric is super stretchy, which is awesome because I know my kids will be comfortable. I love that the fabric also has UPF 50 protection built into it because this helps minimize the amount of sunscreen that I have to apply. The sun wear also has a reflective logo for increased visibility.
Stonz Sun Suit
One piece bathing suits have become my favourite for babies and toddlers for several reasons. First, they are so easy to put on and take off; especially the Stonz sun suit because it has a two-way zipper. Also, they cover the majority of the body from the sun. The Stonz sun suit specifically has suitneck-to-wrist-to-ankle coverage. And you don’t have to worry about over heating in the sun suit because it has a mesh strip down each side for breathability and comfort. And don’t worry about the zipper pinching or chafing skin because the sun suit also has a “zipper garage.”
Shirt & Skort
I also wanted to get a sun suit for Luna, but she was really excited when she was the skort. So we went for the 2 piece shirt and skort. Not only do I love the kid tops because they cover a lot of skin, but I love the fact that it is gender neutral. The Stonz kid top has a raised collar and the back of the shirt is cut longer for coverage of the lower back. It also has a silicone strip at bottom – makes top less likely to ride up.
The skort is cute and has built in gusseted shorts making it ideal for most sporting activities. And a flat waistband prevents bunching.
As mentioned earlier, all of Stonz sunwear has UPF 50 protection built into the fabric, has 4 way stretch, and a reflective logo for increased visibility. The more their sunwear covers their body, the better because that means more protection from the UV rays, and less applying of sunscreen!
From footwear, accessories and apparel designed specifically for kids, Stonz aims to keep them comfortable, protected, and outside longer. Because kids skin needs protection from the sun’s harmful UV rays whenever they’re outdoors!
