DESIGNED FOR GOOD 🌱 MADE FOR LIFE 🤸

Protecting kids from cold and sun doesn't have to be as boring as a black wetsuit or as sketchy as neoprene.

That’s why we’ve created durable, stylish and sustainable 100% neoprene-free natural rubber kids wetsuits that inspire young imaginations and shield fragile skin.

LIFETIME GUARANTEE

Fants wetsuits are guaranteed to outlast a growing kid. If anything busts just send it back and we'll fix it or send you a new one. And when it's time to go up a size we give you a 30% discount on a new wettie when you return the old one (details below). That means by the time a child upsizes twice, you'll have saved 90% on your 3rd wettie.

Neoprene and Limestone Free 🌱

Neoprene and limestone production is full of petrochemicals, dirty mines and bad vibes. That’s not exactly the business we want to be in and it’s definitely not what we want adorning our kids.

That's why Fants' new range of kids wetsuits are made from natural rubber derived entirely from sustainably managed plantations certified by the Forest Stewardship Council. None of our rubber comes from clear cut rainforests - it all originates from plantations that prioritise the preservation of biodiversity.     

10% OFF ORDERS OF TWO OR MORE

Fants go better together. So if you are shopping for siblings or you just want to band together with a mate, then take 10% off when you purchase two or more wetties.

Simply enter the code SIBLING at checkout and bada-bing, you got yourself a deal.

KIDS GROW. SO DOES WASTE.

Kids outgrow wetsuits faster than wetsuits wear out, so we've come up with a way to use that fact to give you up to 30% off your next purchase as well as reduce our waste footprint.

Once your child has outgrown their Fants wetsuit, you can return it to recieve up to 30% discount on new one in the next size up.

We'll put your old wetsuit in a secondhand section of the Fants site so another kid can enjoy it. The idea is to reduce waste by keeping each wetsuit in circulation as long as possible.   

ONE LESS JOB

Having your child's skin protected in and out of the water means you can forget about the futile task of re-applying sunscreen to wet sandy arms and legs. Just pop a hat on them, kick back and let your kids enjoy the sun and surf without worrying they'll end up looking like Paul Hogan.
