The C-Skins Baby/Toddler Shorty Wetsuit is a great option for keeping little ones comfortable during warm beach days. Featuring short arms and short legs, it offers a lighter and cooler alternative to a full wetsuit while still providing warmth and protection in and around the water.
Ideal for paddling, rock pooling, swimming and general seaside adventures, the shorty design helps prevent little ones getting chilly while still allowing plenty of freedom to move and play. It is particularly well suited to warm summer days in the UK or holidays in warmer climates where a full wetsuit may feel a little too warm.
Made from 100% UltraStretch neoprene, the suit is soft, flexible and comfortable, allowing babies and toddlers to crawl, splash and explore without restriction. Flatlock seams sit comfortably against delicate skin, while the lower comfort collar helps reduce rubbing around the neck. The practical front zip also makes it much easier to get on and off.
Compared with cheaper supermarket wetsuits, the C-Skins version offers noticeably better materials, stretch and overall fit. This helps keep little ones warmer in the water and more comfortable while they play, meaning happier kids and longer beach days for everyone.
The neoprene also provides UPF 50+ sun protection, helping shield delicate skin from the sun while they play at the beach.
If you're looking for more coverage or extra warmth, C-Skins also offer long arm, long leg full wetsuit options for babies and toddlers.

FAQs
What is a shorty wetsuit?
A shorty wetsuit features short arms and short legs. It provides warmth and protection while keeping little ones cooler than a full wetsuit, making it ideal for warmer conditions.
Is a shorty wetsuit warm enough for the UK?
On warm sunny days a shorty wetsuit is often perfect for UK beaches, especially for paddling and playing in shallow water. For colder days or longer swims, a full wetsuit with long arms and legs may be a better option.
Does it still provide sun protection?
Yes. The neoprene offers UPF 50+ protection which helps shield delicate skin from the sun while they play in and around the water.
Is it easy to put on and take off?
The front zip entry makes getting the wetsuit on and off much easier, which is especially helpful with wriggly babies and toddlers.
How does the sizing work?
Sizing generally follows average UK baby clothing sizes. If you are unsure, comparing against M&S baby sizing can be a useful guide.
