Kids Elbow-Sleeve Knee-Length Zip Sunsuit

Where elbow and knee coverage works best

This cut sits between a full sunsuit and a standard one-piece. Elbow sleeves and knee-length legs cover the areas that burn first on a child in water — upper arms and knees — while leaving forearms and lower legs free, which most children prefer for swimming and playing.

It is the practical choice for beach holidays and outdoor pools where a child is in and out of the water all day. The front zip makes it manageable on a wet, wriggling child, and the knee-length leg gives enough coverage to act as a light barrier over a swim nappy.

The clean hems keep the silhouette from looking bulky, so it photographs well on a model and reads clearly on a listing image. Brands often pair it with the full-coverage overall in the same seasonal print.
