Ski Banz Review and Giveaway! Closed!


"In 2001, Baby Banz, Inc. found its start in "the land down under," one of the harshest UV climates in the world. One Australian’s fruitless search for a proper pair of baby sunglasses for his infant son forced him to take action, leading to the development of the Original Baby Banz sunglasses. First introduced to the American market in 2002, Baby Banz are best known for their unique wrap-around, banded design and 100% UV protective lenses. Often imitated, but never duplicated, Baby Banz continue to be the standard for baby and children's sunglasses and UV protection worldwide."

Baby Banz was kind enough to send me a pair of Ski Banz for Lovebug. Although they are recommended for older toddlers, I thought we would give them a try anyway. I had high hopes of being able to take her out in the snow this winter. However, the weather has a different plan. It is way too cold here. We have plenty of snow, but the freezing cold temperatures are just too much for a little one.

Eye protection is very important to me. Even one snowball thrown at the face is one too many. I remember getting hit around the eye when I was little, and am very lucky that I have no damage from it. My daughter's vision is priceless, so even though the Ski Banz are a little expensive, at $35, they are well worth it.

The Ski Banz are absolutely awesome though! At one year old, they fit her face well, and still have a lot of room to grow in! The strap on the back has a very large size adjustment, it even fit my head! Lovebug has played with and really put the Ski Banz to the test. Even though she hasn't been able to wear them outside, they are still holding up nicely! I can't wait to try them on her when we are able to get out in the snow!

Baby Banz has more than just Ski Banz! They also offer sunglasses, earmuffs, and UV protectant clothing for your little ones!



Baby Banz has generously offered to give one Moma Lovebug reader a pair of Ski Banz!
