Our adjustable baseball hats for kids combine game-winning sun protection with the athletic style children want to wear. These UPF 50+ hats block 98% of harmful UV rays and keep kids comfortable during sports and outdoor adventures.
Serious sun protection and sporty style
Our sun-protective baseball hats feature certified UPF 50+ fabric that maintains its protective properties through countless washes and playground adventures. The structured brim creates protective coverage that shields delicate skin. With the Skin Cancer Foundation Seal of Recommendation, these hats deliver laboratory-tested protection kids will keep on.
Our UPF baseball hats use specialized fabric that blocks UVA and UVB rays without chemical treatments. Sun protection remains permanent, unlike sunscreen and chemical fabric treatments that wear off during activities and washes.

Performance features for active children
SwimZip baseball hats feature black breathable mesh panels along both sides that maximize ventilation during intense activities. This prevents dangerous overheating while maintaining sun protection across the crown, where children need it most.
Integrated sweatbands absorb moisture before it reaches the eyes. Thanks to the quick-dry fabric technology, hats can be rinsed after morning practice and worn dry for afternoon activities.

Our UPF baseball hat collection offers five distinct colorways that appeal to different personalities and preferences.
Athletic-inspired classics
The navy hat conceals inevitable grass stains and dirt accumulation from outdoor play. White provides maximum heat reflection during scorching summer temperatures. Beige offers a neutral alternative that goes with any outfit.
Contemporary style choices

Washing guidelines
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cool water alongside similar athletic wear. The advanced fabric releases embedded dirt and organic stains without aggressive treatment. Don’t use fabric softeners that compromise moisture-wicking capabilities. Secure the velcro closure before washing to prevent entanglement.
Drying and storage
Air drying provides the best results, though low-heat tumble drying can accelerate the process when needed. The quick-dry fabric is typically dry within 3–4 hours. The resilient construction recovers from compression during storage or transport.

Adjustable UPF baseball hats FAQ
What age range do these hats fit?
The adjustment range of the velcro closure covers approximately 20 to 23 inches in circumference, which fits ages from approximately 3 years old to around thirteen. Many petite teenagers and adults successfully wear these youth-proportioned hats.
Can children wear these during water activities?
While the quick-dry fabric tolerates splashing and water play excellently, we recommend removing hats for swimming for comfort and safety, though the UPF 50+ protection remains effective when saturated.
Do these accommodate sensory sensitivities?
The soft-touch sweatband minimizes tactile irritation for sensitive children, and the lightweight construction avoids oppressive weight sensations. Strategic mesh panels also prevent temperature dysregulation that can trigger discomfort in kids.
Does this eliminate sunscreen requirements?
UPF 50+ fabric provides superior protection to sunscreen on covered areas. Children still require sunscreen application on exposed skin, including neck, ears, and facial areas beyond the brim's shadow. The hat reduces overall sunscreen volume and reapplication frequency.
