    If you know Eyesnug, you may have already spotted a smaller and rather more colourful addition to our range. Snugsee is our junior wraparound sunglasses brand, created specifically around the needs of babies, toddlers and children.

    Designed to sit closer around the eye area than traditional children's sunglasses, Snugsee combines UV400 protection with flexible wraparound frames, child-specific sizing and plenty of colour.

    The aim is simple. To make sunglasses that give kids effective protection outdoors, while still looking and feeling like something they actually want to wear.

    Junior wraparound sunglasses designed specifically for children

    Snugsee isn’t just an adult frame made smaller. It’s designed specifically for children from the start.

    The range comes in three child-specific sizes, approximately 1–2 years, 3–5 years and 6–12 years, helping create a closer and more comfortable fit as children grow.

    The wraparound shape provides greater coverage around the sides of the eyes than a traditional flatter frame. As well as protecting against bright sunlight and glare, this closer coverage can help reduce the amount of wind, pollen, dust and other airborne irritants reaching the eye area.

    This may be particularly helpful for children who experience hay fever, allergies or light sensitivity. Sunglasses aren't a treatment for allergies, but wraparound designs can provide an additional physical barrier when children are outdoors.

    Snug Fit or Classic Fit?

    Snugsee junior wraparound sunglasses are available in two different fits.

    Classic Fit is the lighter, more minimal option. The flexible wraparound frame sits close around the face without additional padding, making it a great everyday choice for school runs, parks, holidays and outdoor play.

    Snug Fit provides additional coverage for children who benefit from an even closer fit. These models have a soft EVA Snug Shield, which sits discretely around the inside of the frame to help minimise gaps around the eyes.

    That extra coverage can be particularly useful during pollen season, on windy days or for children whose eyes are easily irritated outdoors.

    Three different lens options

    Different children and different adventures call for different lenses, so Snugsee offers three choices:

    • Signature lenses are smoke-tinted everyday lenses for general outdoor play and everyday glare reduction.
    • Polarised lenses provide maximum glare reduction, particularly around reflective surfaces such as water, sand and roads.
    • REVO lenses feature a mirrored coating for enhanced glare reduction in bright conditions, with a colourful sporty finish.

    All three options provide Category 3 UV400 protection, alongside anti-fog and anti-scratch coatings.

    You can compare them in more detail in the Snugsee children's sunglasses lens guide.

    Recognised by the Junior Design Awards

    Snugsee launched with a mission to help more children enjoy being outdoors without sensitive eyes getting in the way.

    In its first year, the brand has already been shortlisted for the Junior Design Awards 2026 in the Best Health & Wellbeing Brand (Children) category, alongside four other children's health and wellbeing brands.

    For us, that recognition is particularly special because Snugsee was created around a very real problem. Traditional children's sunglasses can leave significant gaps around the eyes, precisely where bright light, wind and airborne irritants can get through.

    You can read more about Snugsee's Junior Design Awards shortlist and the story behind the brand on the Snugsee website here.
