What Children's Swim and Sun Protection Products Can You Buy at Jakabel?

Jakabel sells children's UV swimwear and sun protection clothing, organised into ranges for babies, kids, and youth/adult sizes, plus floatation aids and swimming accessories. If you are buying for a baby or young child who needs sun coverage in and around water, the baby range and UV50+ sun protection wear are the most relevant starting points. If you need buoyancy help, the Swimsafe Floatsuit sits in the floatation aids category.

Product categories available at Jakabel

The site groups its stock into the following categories, with the product counts shown on the page:

This spread tells you what kind of shopping trip Jakabel is set up for: a single order covering sun hats-to-swimwear for a baby, a swimsuit and shoes for an older child, and wetsuits or towelling for the wider family.

Baby range and UV protection for babies

The baby range is the largest single age-specific group, with 15 products. Jakabel states that all its sun protection wear is UVP 50+ and that it uses high quality nylon/lycra with a soft feel intended for a baby's skin.

Two claims on the page are worth knowing before you buy:

• The UV wear is described as helping to provide a barrier between the sun and children's skin conditions such as eczema.
• It is also described as helping with eczema because parents can apply creams and then still pick up their child without the child slipping through their hands.

If you are buying for a baby, the baby range plus the sun protection UV50+ wear category are the two places to look first.

Kids swimsuits, sunsuits, shorts, tops and swim shoes

For older children, the clothing splits into several overlapping categories rather than one "kids" section:

• Kids Swimsuits UVP50+ – 3 products, the core swimwear.
• Sunsuits – 5 products, full-coverage sun protection.
• Shorts & Tops – 18 products, the largest clothing group, useful for mixing and matching coverage.
• Swim shoes – 4 products, for protecting feet around pools and beaches.

Because these categories overlap in purpose, decide first whether you want a one-piece swimsuit, a sunsuit for longer coverage, or separates. The shorts and tops range gives the most choice if you are building an outfit rather than buying a single item.

Floatation aids and the Swimsafe Floatsuit

Floatation aids is a small category with 2 products, and it is where the Swimsafe Floatsuit sits. Jakabel describes it as "the original Swimsafe Floatsuit" and gives it a "Buy Now" call to action on the homepage.

Treat floatation aids as a supplement to supervision, not a replacement for it — the page frames the whole range around keeping little ones safe rather than around the product doing that job alone.

Swimming accessories, pool toys, wetsuits and towelling

Beyond clothing and floatation, Jakabel stocks:

• Swimming accessories – 9 products.
• Swimming pool toys – 1 product.
• Wetsuits – 10 products, the second-largest category on the site.
• Towelling – 2 products, for drying off and cover-ups.
• Youth/Adult – 5 products, for older children and grown-ups who want matching coverage.

The wetsuit range is worth noting if you swim in cooler water or outdoors, since it is a bigger part of the catalogue than the swimsuit-specific categories.

How to decide what to buy

Match the category to the job:

• Baby needing full sun coverage → Baby range, then Sun Protection UV50+ wear.
• Child who needs a swimsuit → Kids Swimsuits UVP50+, or Sunsuits for more coverage.
• Child who needs mix-and-match coverage → Shorts & Tops.
• Buoyancy help in the water → Floatation aids, including the Swimsafe Floatsuit.
• Cooler water or outdoor swimming → Wetsuits.
• Whole family → Youth/Adult sizes alongside the children's ranges.

The site shows "Buy Now" and "Shop now" links, indicating items can be purchased directly, but no prices, delivery terms, or payment details are given on the page — check those at checkout before committing.
