Let customers speak for us
I love Alpen shade clothing for toddlers to protect them from the sun!
Love these!! My 3 month old can go hiking with us now!
The onesie is so cute and the fabric is super soft! So excited to gift this to one of my good friends newborn. :)
These sun suits are amazing! Just got back from a 6 night backcountry beach trip and my 11 month old was in it everyday!
Wearing this all summer long! Super cute and exactly what baby needs to stay protected
Super comfy for our little one! And she loves wearing it on sunny days at the beach, hiking or wherever she needs a break from the sun!
This sunsuit is a game changer. Lightweight, breathable, high quality and the trusted confidence that my baby will be safe from the sun in this suit made by a dermatologist. Love it. I need more because she wears it so often whether it’s hiking, a baseball game or just our regular trips to the park with our toddler - protection from the sun is key and hard for babies - this makes it easy. The removable hood is excellent for taking off for car rides and naps at home, and the hand and feet mitts are great to cover up in the sun and nice to let her breathe when we’re in the shade. My baby is long and lean and wears the 3-6mo and has plenty of room to grow. Buy it! Buy two!
I'm so glad I purchased this sunsuit for my baby! The fabric is soft, light, and stretchy, and the combination of lightweight+ full-coverage has been clutch this summer! Dressing my baby for outdoor adventures can be stressful, but this checks so many boxes. I love the two-way zipper for diaper changes and appreciate the option to cover hands and feet (because keeping booties on is futile). The sizing is pretty generous and forgiving; I put my 6-month-old (who's long and lean for her age) in the 6-12, and she's got tons of room to grow but still wore it just fine... which means we may get two summers out of this item- score!
The sunsuit protected my son during an outdoor event in Hawaii with little shade. I was worried he would overheat from wearing long sleeves and pants, but he actually stayed cool and didn’t burn! Also, love the “mitten and sock” option!
Really nice infant and toddlers SPF outfits. They are doing good and I’m so happy I brought them into our spa to sell.
The sun suit is great! I loved knowing that our son was fully protected from the harsh summer sun!
This is a great suit! The material is quite soft but still seems pretty durable. Our baby likes wearing it. The only change I would make it to have the hood be slightly more fitted, since it sometimes falls off my baby's head.
Our Story
At Alpenshade, we know parenting can be a wild ride—especially when you’re out and about with your little sidekick. That’s why we’re all about creating UPF apparel for babies that makes sun protection not just easy but actually fun! And, we're just getting started. Options for children of all ages and adults are coming down the line.
Our Why
Babies and toddlers are the most vulnerable to sunburns, yet there are no adequate solutions to fully protect their delicate skin. Childhood sun exposure—especially burns—has a significant impact on a person’s lifetime risk of developing melanoma. Most cumulative lifetime sun exposure also happens in childhood. We wanted to create a reliable, effective and easy sun protection option for little ones who need it most.
Our Solution
Our dermatologist-designed products provide high-quality, quick, and easy sun protection for newborns, infants, and toddlers. Families can confidently enjoy outdoor adventures knowing their littles are shielded all day from harmful UV rays in our playful, colorful sunsuits. Eventually, we hope to make fun, protective clothing for all ages. Stay tuned!
