Comments about One Step Ahead Sun SmartiesÃ¢â€žÂ¢ Zip Suit:

This zip suit is so much better than a swim trunks and swim shirt combination. One zip and my toddler is in and out of it. It dries quickly. Covers most of his arms and legs so we use less sunscreen. Wish I would have bought one when he was younger! My twins will be getting zip suits next summer.

Comments about One Step Ahead Sun SmartiesÃ¢â€žÂ¢ Zip Suit:

Love this suit. I bought a 24 mo. size for next year. But my daughter has been able to wear it summer even though it is big. (She is 9 months). Great for fair children. Dries quickly. Keeps the sand out of the diaper area at the beach.

Good cover but may get hot

Describe Yourself:

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about One Step Ahead Sun SmartiesÃ¢â€žÂ¢ Zip Suit:

I liked the cover it provides from the sun and it is good for colder seaside beaches or spring/fall time but it seems to be a bit hot or uncomfortable (maybe the material) for my toddler, who kept unzipping it and wanting to get out of it. I'm not sure she felt comfortable swimming in it either.

The sewing on the 24 month size with the snaps pulled out in the crotch area after one use. The 2T size was wonderful no sewing issues. The up shot is it was replaced by your company imedietaly.

Comments about One Step Ahead Sun SmartiesÃ¢â€žÂ¢ Zip Suit:

This suit is great! If you are trying to figure out to buy it or not, buy it. It is so much easier to take off and on then a regular suit. You don't have to worry if you gooped up your child enough so they don't get burned. There is only minimul skin that needs sunscreen so it makes everything so much faster. Also, my daughter didn't sweat or get overheated in it.

Comments about One Step Ahead Sun SmartiesÃ¢â€žÂ¢ Zip Suit:

The only reason this product didn't get a 5 star rating was the size chart isn't so accurate. Otherwise it's a wonderful product. I suggest ordering one size larger than you think you need!

great coverage

By dance mom

Pros:

Lightweight, Useful

Best Uses:

Infants, Toddlers

Describe Yourself:

Parent of Two or More Children

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about One Step Ahead Sun SmartiesÃ¢â€žÂ¢ Zip Suit:

I love these suits. They provide full coverage so there is only a little skin exposed which means less sunscreen I have to apply to my kids. Less sunscreen means less chemicals on my kids. Also, these work great at the beach where little ones tend to get sand in very uncomfortable places. These suits allow my son to sit, roll, and lay in the sand without getting the sand inside his swim pants.

OMG I LOVE IT!!

Best Uses:

Toddlers

Describe Yourself:

Comments about One Step Ahead Sun SmartiesÃ¢â€žÂ¢ Zip Suit:

I bought this SPF 50 suit for my 2 yr old son who is fair with blonde hair and blue eyes. I put sunscreen on him before I put on the suit, which is SO easy to put on! We stayed on the beach in Destin, Florida for hours and i would only apply sunscreen on his wrists,ankles,neck and face even though he was wearing a hat. HE DID NOT BURN AT ALL!! He actually got a tan where the 3/4 length sleeves and capri length didn't cover but he didn't even get tan, let alone burn under the suit. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS TO EVERYONE! Only thing he would play with the zipper and zip and upzip it but once we got on the beach he forgot about! LOVE IT!!
