Order before 16:00 on working days and we ship the same day!
A swim ring that looks like it came straight out of 1975, but is made to today's standards. That is Petites Pommes: inflatable swim rings, arm bands and pools with hand-printed retro patterns in muted, pastel shades. They stand out against the bright plastic at the edge of the pool, and they are built to last several seasons. Order before 4 pm on a working day and your order ships the same day.
Have a look at all our paddling pools and swim accessories as well.
For the swim rings it comes down to the diameter: 45 and 60 cm are for children, 120 cm is the size an adult fits in, and two children will happily share it. The arm bands are a different thing altogether: they go on the upper arm and are intended for children aged 2 to 6 weighing 15 to 30 kg. The Henry pool is suitable from 3 years.
An inflatable swim ring is a toy, not a swimming aid. It is no substitute for supervision. For the arm bands the supplier states: wear on the upper arm only, inflate all air chambers fully, never over-inflate or use compressed air, and check the seams regularly for tears.
For the pool, two rules the supplier sets out explicitly: empty it when it is not in use, and never set it up on concrete, asphalt or any other hard surface. Always supervise children around water, even in a shallow pool.
Rinse with clean water after use, or wipe it down with a damp cloth. Then let it dry completely before folding it up: trapped water is the main cause of bacterial growth and staining. Store everything in the cotton bag it came in and keep it out of direct sunlight. UV light makes PVC brittle over time. That way a single ring easily survives several summers, which is exactly the point.
We would rather sell one thing that lasts four summers than four things that last one. Petites Pommes fits that: inflatable toys that were not designed to end up in the bin after the holidays, the repair patch included with the swim rings being the clearest proof. That it also looks good on a terrace or at the beach is a bonus.
Three: 45, 60 and 120 cm in diameter, in eighteen colours. The 120 cm is the adult size.
A swim ring is the ring you sit in. The arm bands go on the upper arm and are intended for children aged 2 to 6 weighing 15 to 30 kg.
Because the pattern is printed by hand. Small colour differences are part of the process and make every piece unique. They are not a fault.
The products are free from BPA and phthalates and are assessed against strict EU standards. The swim rings are made from 0.3 mm PVC.
A repair patch is included with the swim rings. You can mend a small leak yourself; nothing needs throwing away.
Let it dry completely, fold it up and keep it in the organic cotton bag it came in, out of direct sunlight.
No. An inflatable swim ring is a toy, not a safety device. Always supervise children in or near water.
