We are both mothers of three, living on Sydney's Northern Beaches. Having both moved from Europe to Australia we have found that, although Australia is without doubt a world leader in adult and sporting swimwear design, there is actually very little choice in childrens' sun protective clothing available from the major retailers.
We have also found this same problem applies to childrens' ski accessories, which can be very difficult to find when you don't happen to live near a ski shop!
As mothers we realise how important it is for every mother to protect their childrens' skin, but we also realise that modern parents are very discerning these days, and whilst they are often looking for something a bit new and unsual they are not willing to pay an unrealistic price for it.
We have searched within Australia and overseas for products that are interesting, of good quality and design but above all are value for money. Everything you see on the Sun & Snow website has been road-tested by our children. If it didn't pass the 'kids' test, it didn't get on the site.
In short, if we wouldn’t buy it ourselves, we won’t sell it to you!
We are always happy to answer questions about our products so please feel free to contact us.
Happy shopping!
Liz Gearing and Kerry Smallman
