Jan and Jul

Discover our collection of Jan and Jul hats for kids! Jan and Jul is a children's accessories brand founded in Vancouver, British Columbia. The product selection focuses on summer hats that are adjustable and waterproof, while offering colorful, playful designs and optimal protection from the sun. The brand's signature product is the Gro-With-Me® adjustable sun hat, which allows you to fit the sun hat on your child's head, making it wearable for years to come. With Jan & Jul, your kids can go out and play in total peace of mind, whatever the weather!

Finding the Right Jan & Jul Hat for Your Child

Not all sun hats are created equal — and Jan & Jul make it easy to find the one that's right for your little adventurer. The Cotton Floppy Hat is the classic: a wide brim that stays up in front and softly flops at the back, shading the neck. Our favourite for park mornings, beach days, and stroller walks with babies and toddlers. For more active kids, the Bucket Hat offers a structured all-around brim that stays out of the face — available in breathable cotton or in the water-repellent Aqua-Dry version for splash-pad days.

The Xplorer Hat goes further still, adding a long neck flap for maximum coverage on hikes, at camp, and on long days by the water. Bigger kids who want something packable will love the Hiking Hat, designed to crush into a bag and bounce back to its original shape. And for your newest arrival, the Sun Soft Baby Cap is made without clips or toggles so newborns can nap safely.

What Makes Jan & Jul Different: The Gro-With-Me® Advantage

At Billie le Kid, we choose brands that combine thoughtful design, durability, and everyday practicality. Jan & Jul stands out in our collection for two reasons that make their kids’ sun hats truly exceptional.

The first is the Gro-With-Me® system — a fully adjustable drawstring around the crown of the hat, combined with an adjustable chinstrap, so parents can size the hat precisely to their child's head at every stage. One hat can comfortably see a child through multiple growth spurts, sometimes over several years.

The second is protection that never fades. Jan & Jul's UPF 50+ rating comes from the fabric's weave and structure — not from a chemical coating or spray. That means no PFAS, no harmful dyes, no fluorocarbons, and sun protection that remains fully effective no matter how many times the hat goes through the wash.

FAQ

What sizes do Jan & Jul hats come in, and how do I know which one to choose for my child?

Jan & Jul hats are available in sizes Small (0–6 months), Medium (6–24 months), Large (2–5 years), and XL (5–12 years). To find the right fit, measure your child's head circumference with a soft measuring tape just above their ears and eyebrows. If you're between sizes, we recommend sizing up — the Gro-With-Me® adjustable drawstring lets you fine-tune the fit so the hat stays secure and comfortable as your child grows. Our team at Billie le Kid is always happy to help you choose the right size.

Is the sun protection in Jan & Jul hats safe for babies and children with sensitive skin?

Yes — Jan & Jul's UPF 50+ protection comes from the weave and construction of the fabric itself, with no chemical coatings, dyes, PFAS or fluorocarbons added. Because the protection is built into the structure of the hat rather than applied as a finish, it never washes off or fades over time. This makes Jan & Jul hats a safe and gentle choice for newborns, babies and children with sensitive or reactive skin.

What is the Gro-With-Me® system and how does it work?

The Gro-With-Me® system is Jan & Jul's signature adjustable hat design. Each hat features a drawstring that tightens or loosens around the crown of the hat, plus an adjustable chinstrap to keep it secure during active play. Together, these two adjustments allow one hat to fit a child through multiple stages of growth — in some styles, a single hat can last up to several years. The chinstrap also includes a breakaway safety release that opens under pressure, so it won't pose a risk during rough outdoor play.

Can Jan & Jul hats be used in the water or on rainy days?

Jan & Jul's Aqua-Dry styles are made with a water-repellent fabric treated with an eco-friendly, PFAS-free DWR coating (Bionic-Finish® Eco). These hats are quick-drying, lightweight and maintain their UPF 50+ protection wet or dry — ideal for beach days, pool time and rainy outdoor adventures. The cotton styles are not water-repellent, but breathable and excellent for sunny, dry conditions. If you're unsure which style suits your child's activities, our team at Billie le Kid is happy to help.

How do I care for and wash a Jan & Jul hat?

Most Jan & Jul styles — including cotton Floppy, Bucket and winter Knit hats — are machine washable on a gentle cycle with cold water, then laid flat or air dried. Insulated winter styles can be spot-cleaned and air dried to preserve the lining. Because the UPF 50+ protection comes from the fabric's weave and not from a chemical finish, it remains fully effective after repeated washing.
