Product Information

And in three slightly different varieties of style, we’re sure there is something for everyone’s needs and tastes. Our Originals legionnaire baby hat is just that: our original design! Made when our founder couldn’t find a newborn size hat for her little outdoorsy baby, she designed one that was super soft, stretchy to accommodate baby’s head growth, and UPF50+. The brand has since expanded to include hats for older kids and adults, as well as Swim and Winter ranges, and our new Heritage 100% linen and reversible styles. At Bedhead Hats, we help parents protect their babies any time they’re in the sun. We offer a range of hat styles, colours, prints, and sizes to meet every need. Every hat is rated UPF50+ excellent protection from the sun. 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.

Material: 85% polyester and 15% elastane with 100% polyester lining, age: 3 months – 2 years, SPF protection: no Do babies need sun hats?Any sun hat is better than none, but where possible opt for one that is made with UV-resistant fabric, or has a tight weave.

Sun hats for your baby are sold in lots of different places, including department stores, chain stores and the clothing departments of large supermarkets. They’re also widely available online. A hat should not leave any marks on your child’s forehead and you should easily be able to slide two fingers under the edge. The hat should cover your child’s ears. If the hat starts sliding up, it’s too small. Our sizes are usually a good match to your child’s age. Sun safety applies at any age, so yes – it's best to be prepared with a sun hat for your little one, so you can keep their delicate skin shaded and cool when you're out and about. What is the best sun hat for babies? Our swimwear sizes are the same as our ordinary clothes. Simply measure your child’s height to find the right size for them. But keep in mind that children tend to have growth spurts, so always use an up-to-date measurement. Your child’s height in centimetres tells you which clothing size you need. We specify ages next to each size as a rough guide if it’s not possible to measure their height. But height is a better guide than age when finding the right size, as all children are different! It doesn’t matter if you’re holidaying abroad or staying at home, it’s crucial to keep your baby safe in the sun. Hats are a great way of doing this and they’re a great fashion accessory as well – who doesn’t love a pretty hat?

So choose the size that feels most comfortable.
