The right sunglasses size for your baby or child: how to choose perfectly!
Sunglasses are a must-have for babies and children, but how do you know which size fits best? Too large means they slip down, while too small means they pinch—and neither is comfortable. In this blog, we’ll help you choose the right size step by step, so your little one can enjoy the sun safely and happily.
Why the right size matters so much
Sunglasses that do not fit properly do not provide enough protection. If the glasses are too large, they keep slipping down, leaving your little one’s eyes exposed to UV radiation. If they are too small, they are uncomfortable and more likely to be taken off. A good fit ensures that your child wants to wear the glasses and is optimally protected.
How do you determine the right size?
At Maesy, we look not only at age, but also at head circumference. This is the best way to find the right fit.
✅ Measure the head circumference: Use a flexible measuring tape and measure just above the ears and eyebrows.
✅ Compare it with the Maesy size chart: Our sunglasses are categorized by head circumference, so you can always find a good match.
Maesy sunglasses: which size fits my child?
We offer four main sizes:
👶 Baby (0–2 years) → Suitable for a head circumference of 36–49 cm
🚼 Toddler (1–3 years) → Suitable for a head circumference of 47–52 cm
🎒 Preschooler (3–6 years) → Suitable for a head circumference of 50–54 cm
🧢 Kids (6–12 years) → Suitable for a head circumference of 54–56 cm
Are you unsure between two sizes? It is better to choose a slightly roomier fit, so your child can enjoy the glasses for longer!
