SARDINES UNDER THE WHARF BIKINI TOP
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:
"At certain times of the year schools of sardine swim around and under the Kerriri (Hammond Island, TSI) wharf. The sardines are jigged by hand and used as live bait for fishing from the wharf. On one holiday visit to Kerriri my family went fishing together. At that time my youngest son was 3 years old. He caught a sardine on his line, made friends with it and decided to keep him safe in his pocket. It was a couple of hours later that we discovered and met his new friend. The give away was the wet and slightly smelly patch around his shorts pocket. ‘Sardines under the Wharf’ as a concept was developed to preserve the special memory I have of my son and his aquatic friend."
