SQUIDDY TALES (GREEN) LONG SLEEVE ZIP RASHIE
Swimwear & Rashies Size Guide
Kids come in all shapes and sizes. An 8 year old might be a size 10 in the chest and a size 8 in the hips, which is why all our swimwear and rashies are sold as separates. Choose the right size for each piece and you'll get the best fit.
Fit tips
- Our rashies are a relaxed fit, more like a loose tee.
- Our swim shorts and bottoms are more fitted.
- All our swim shorts have a drawstring waist, so if your child is at the top of a size, go up a size.
- Our Toddler Sunsuits and Girls Sunsuits are a larger make than the rest of the range. We recommend going down a size from your usual Sandy Feet size.

Story behind the design:
"Squids…a beautiful translucent and graceful creature with…ahh black ink and memories of it all over my face! One wet season night on Engineers Wharf on Thursday Island (Torres Strait Islands) I celebrated as my husband hooked his first squid. Being a mainland Islander I had yet to experience the spraying of the ink. I was oblivious to the youngsters and my husband stepping away from the bucket as I leaned over to view squid. I was baptized by squid ink that night to the delight of the young ones also fishing during the midnight hours. On another occasion whilst snorkelling on the reef I was studied by a school of some 12 squid. Initially they were hard to spot being translucent creatures. They were observing me like a larger less graceful squiddy thing worth calling in the family to look at. All the while I was thinking of how much my family would love to eat these swimming calamaries!" Francoise Lane
Absolutely love Sandy feet swimwear. We have been using for several years and they are always outgrown before outworn and we swim alot! Great choice of swimwear you won't be dissapinted
True to size, well made perfect outfit with shorts and bikini bottoms for active 2.5 yr old.
We recently purchased some swimwear from sandy feet. The quality is fantastic and easy to wash. We went camping with them and they got quite dirty, but they came up looking brand new when I washed them at home. Very happy with this purchase. My now go to company for swimwear made for the harsh Australian environment. 5 stars 😁
Love the colour and style. It's so difficult to find cute but not childish rashies that are chlorine resistant. My ten year old likes to cover up in the pool and so many rashies on the market for her age are either not chlorine resistant or are cropped at the midriff (whyyyy).
She loves how bright it is and the way it feels. The only improvement would be to have lining in the front.
Hi Rebecca, we're so glad your ten-year-old loves the rashie and appreciates the bright color and style! Thank you for your feedback on the lining — we'll pass that along to our design team. Enjoy the pool!
Great quality material and really happy with the purchase. I bought it because of the bright colours — they really stand out! I’m looking forward to getting plenty of use out of it this summer.
This is the second pair of swimmers we have bought our son. They are such great quality and look amazing. We were just on holiday and we saw many other kids with swimmers from Sandy Feet Australia.
Awesome product. Lasting years and being passed down to the next kid. No other product has lasted as long as sandy feet. Need some Jammers styles and some more teen and tween designs.
Great quality! Bought this rashie with the matching pants 5 months ago and has had a LOT of use in salt and chlorine water. They look the same as the day I bought them! Only thing is the gap at the back between the top and pants. Would be great if the top was longer (or the pants waist higher).
I am quite petite so based on the sizing chart I ordered a girls size 14. The rashie fits perfectly and I feel that with multiple washes it will not lose shape or stretch. The fabric design is lovely and colourful and of excellent quality. I am extremely happy with this purchase. Thank you.
Bought size 8. Perfect for 7 year old daughter with the matching shortie shorts. Quality item. Great pattern and colours. Love it.
Tangerine Flower Burst Long Sleeve Rashie and Shorts. Fit great, look great. Very happy with this purchase. Also great customer service from Sandy Feet.
Bought this for a lanky 13 year old and it fits perfectly. I hadn't noticed the zip neck when I bought it - bonus. He loves it.
Very very happy with these - they fit beautifully, dry fast, and are super comfortable. My daughter loves them! Will definitely be buying her next swimsuit here (and hopefully one in my size!)
Well made and true to size. Fun patterns for the children.
I will never buy a rashie anywhere else, the quality is great, so good in fact that I am able to pass down the garment to younger siblings - which never happens with a rashie! I recommend this brand to everyone.
The only thing missing is more unisex designs, bring back the shoulder zip for more sun coverage around the neck and brighter colours for older kids/teens - high vis colours please!!!
Excellent quality. True to size. Will be buying from Sandy Feet again.
Side zip works really well and my son prefers this over a front zip.
My grandies live in the forest in India. Their swimwear gets a caning. They have out grown the first set which, after 18 months, is STILL IN MINT CONDITION! SO! these have been put away for the grandies that are coming up through the ranks :) Thank you for products that are worth paying for :)
Great quality swimmers
Beautiful design, great fit, colour is absolutely true to web site pictures!
Fantastic quality fabric, it is leaps and bounds above all other rashies, and I'm super fussy as a dressmaker myself! The white (single layer, unlined - as its a rashie) of this striped top isn't even see through! Suits kids with abnormally large heads too - no complaints/ getting stuck getting it on or off while wet! Fantastic process for exchanging for alternate sizes too.
I love the quality of these rashies. My daughter looks great, feels comfortable and I know she is getting great protection. What more could I want?
Love Sandy Feet - the best quality rashies that don't stretch. We have a pool and go to the beach regularly and the kids still grow out of their Sandy Feet rashies before they are worn out or stretched.
I love the quality of this swimwear. The kids rashies outlast them! They are the first swimwear that I could possibly pass on cause they still have their shape and colour
Was not disappointed at all. The material is lovely and the sizing fit is spot on. Received really quickly after placing my order. Miss 11 is loving her new swim suit
Great as always. Our umpteenth purchase from sandy feet and never disappointed😊
I got the matching rashie and towel. They are fabulous! Excellent quality. I am a repeat purchaser.
Lovely pattern.
My daughter loves wearing this, although slightly baggy for her slim frame.
High quality material.
This rashie has had a lot of pool use since arrival. It's been amazing! Colours have not faded, shape has been maintained and the zip works every single time. 😀
