Sizing tips:
1. The suits are fitted, with unisex sizing. For comfort, and so that you get several season's wear, we recommend buying at least one size larger than usual, especially for boys.
2. For babies over 15 months, we recommend the size 3-4 yrs suit. It covers more of your baby, and leaves room for a nappy if required.

Sunhats shown are available separately - see below
