Used swimwear and sun clothes for kids
Swimwear and sun clothes are used for a short season and often sold in good condition. Check the materials carefully, as sun and chlorine wear them out.

Check elasticity
Stretch the fabric gently. Swimwear that has lost its elasticity or become thin will not fit or last well.
Look for fading and wear
Strong fading and rough patches can be signs of heavy use. Ask the seller how often and where the item was used.
Keep sun protection in mind
Sun hats and long-sleeved tops are useful, but follow current advice from health authorities on sun protection for children.
