Kids Not a Fishing Shirt Collection

No sunscreen fights. No ugly fish prints. Just a shirt they'll actually put on.

Kids fishing shirts that aren't really fishing shirts

Every mum knows the five-minute sunscreen standoff. The wriggling, the "it's cold", the bit behind the ears you always miss. Then two hours later you get to do it all again.

A long-sleeve sun shirt ends that. Ours are Not a Fishing Shirts — the sun protection of the real thing, in prints kids actually reach for.

What makes them different

• UPF50+ knitted into the fabric, so it doesn't wash out over a summer.
• 165 GSM, 100% polyester dry fit — light enough for a scorcher, dry again by the time they're back in the water.
• Full sublimation prints that don't crack, peel or go stiff in the wash.
• Sand shakes straight off. Your car will thank you.
• Australian designed by mums who have done the sunscreen argument enough times.

Babies too

The same fabric comes as a baby fishing shirt romper in sizes 00 (3–6 months), 0 (6–12 months) and 1 (12–18 months), with press studs underneath so nappy changes don't mean a full undress. Babies burn faster than the rest of us and can't tell you when they've had enough sun — a long-sleeve romper just handles it.

What size should I get?

Kids' shirts are true to size for everyday wear — size up for a looser fit or room to grow. Measurements in centimetres for sizes 2–14 are on the kids fishing shirt size chart, and sizes 00–1 are on the baby romper size chart. Babies vary enormously, so go by the measurements rather than the months.

After a dress instead?

The same fabric and the same protection comes as a kids fishing shirt dress in sizes 4–14. And most prints run right through to mum sizes — the Mum and Mini range has the matching sets.
