Stop chasing your kids with sunscreen
You know the drill.
You’re already running late, coffee’s gone cold, and your kids are halfway out the door asking to go now.
You grab the sunscreen.
They run.
You finally get it on (kind of)… and spend the rest of the day wondering if you missed a spot.
Sunfolk Apparel was made to remove that moment.
Just put it on and go
Our Everyday Sun Safe Shirt gives your child UPF50+ protection (blocks 98% of UV rays) — without the chasing, the arguing, or the constant reapplying.
No waiting 20 minutes.
No sticky arms.
No “just stand still for one second.”
Just one less thing to think about before you leave the house.
Designed for real life (not just the beach)
This isn’t a rashie.

So your child stays protected without looking like they’re headed for a swim.

The easiest decision you’ll make today
You don’t need another complicated routine.
You just need something that works — without the fight.
Keeping it in good shape is simple:
- Cold gentle machine wash
- Wash inside out with like colours
- Do not bleach, soak, or rub
- Line dry in the shade
- Do not tumble dry
- Do not iron
- Do not dry clean
A rinse after a beach or pool day helps the
fabric last longer and keeps the UPF protection performing the way it should.
While our shirts and rompers provide UPF 50+ protection, they’re just one part of staying sun safe. For best protection, pair them with other sun-smart essentials like a broad-brimmed hat, sunglasses,
and sunscreen on exposed skin.
Please note: the UPF rating may be reduced if the fabric is wet, stretched, or not cared for according to instructions..
We keep things easy at Sunfolk Apparel. Your order will be packed and on its way within 1–2 business days.
Flat rate standard shipping of $8.95 Australia-wide or free express shipping Australia-wide when you spend $120 or more— no code needed.

BUILT IN
The shirt's already doing it. Once it's on, the sun protection is handled. No reapplying. No wiping off. No negotiating. UPF50+ certified fabric, built in. So they can get on with their day, and you can too.
Stylish Designs That
Cute enough that you'll actually want to put it on them. Pairs easily with whatever's already in their wardrobe. Denim shorts, leggings. Dressed up or dressed down. Timeless enough to wear all season. Subtle enough to go with everything.
COMFY ENOUGH FOR
Soft enough that they won't even notice they're wearing it. No rashie stiffness. No itchy fabric. No complaints about being too hot. Just a comfortable everyday shirt, with UPF50+ quietly doing its job underneath.
Our UPF50+ Fabric
Our fabric is soft, light, and genuinely comfortable to wear on a hot day. It's breathable, quick to dry, and built to handle real kid use. The UPF50+ protection is built into the weave itself. It doesn't wash out or wear off. Every wash, every wear, it's still doing its job.
Tested by ARPANSA to AS4399:2020. OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 (Class I) certified inks.
WHAT OTHER AUSSIE MUMS ARE SAYING
All the little things you might wonder
-
Not at all! Our neutral designs are made for everyday wear — perfect for park hangs, backyard play, or cafe trips.
-
Yes. The fabric is soft and breathable, and the prints use OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified inks, so they're tested safe for
direct skin contact. No harsh dyes, no irritants. -
For most everyday situations — running through sprinklers, a bit of splash — yes, it holds up well. Like any fabric, the UPF
rating can reduce if it's stretched or heavily saturated, so for pool or beach days we'd always suggest pairing with a hat and sunscreen on exposed skin too.
