My son started wearing sunglasses when he was 2 months old. He is now over 2 years old. I have tried many brands:
- Julbo - best fit for infants. I cut the legs of his first pair in half so they would not go past his ears. That worked great for the first few months. Then the next pair (around 7mo) fit without adjustments. They fit close to the head but are not tight, s they never bothered him. They can be thrown, chewed on, licked, and nothing happens to them. They have no parts that could pinch or crews that could be swallowed. But around 18m, the wrap style started to annoy my son.
Baby Banz - too rigid for infants and too wrapped / tight for toddlers. My son hated the strap around his head even though he has no problem wearing hats. They might be ok if they just happen to fit your baby's face shape perfectly, but otherwise, they look uncomfortable and my son hated them.
- Roshambo - too big for infants but great quality and fit for toddlers. They can be chewed on and thrown without breaking or, so far, scratching. The legs have never gotten unhinged. The lense is pretty dark, which sometimes annoyed my toddler when the sun wasn't too bright, but he loves them in the sun.
- Mustachifier - I bought these a couple of months aggo despite loving his current Roshambos because the frame looks like mine, and my son likes that. But I am very disappointed. The fit is weird, tilted down somehow, like it has too much separation between the forehead and the top of the frame, even when it is pushed up against the bridge of the nose. Also, the lenses keep falling off the frames and are already scratched. And the screw of one leg fell off yesterday. My son is older now, so he has not given these sunglasses the rough treatment that the Roshambos or Julbos got, and still these fell apart in just a few weeks. And the texture of the frame is less bendable than Roshambos, more like grownup glasses, so it left marks on his nose and I am sure would have broken if my son still chewed on things and threw things on the floor. The lense is not as dak, which probably means his eyes are not as protected.
So.... Going back to Roshambo for my toddler and Julbo for my infant.

They fold his ears over(see photo) and to be snug enough to where they don’t need to be readjusted the center part leaves a huge mark on my sons forehead
Scratch very easy. So if your child takes these off and throws them off the stroller- scratched to hell.
They say polarized and uva and uvb but my son still drastically squints. They don’t change much of the light coming in.
For reference- son is 9 months. 21 lbs.
Ill be buying (reluctantly) a few other versions on amazon until we have that “go to” pair

I'm hoping he'll enjoy them more when they are a little more snug
