Seeking SPF Shirts for Toddlers

Last year I got my son a surfer type water shirt that was rated 50 SPF. I can't find any this year. My son has an allergy to sunblock and the only block he can wear isn't water proof so I really need to find one of these shirts to make it easier for him to play in the water this summer. I got a "rash guard" shirt at Children's Place that is made to wear in the water, but it doesn't say it has an SPF so I am guessing it won't help any more than a regular shirt. Has anyone seen the ones specifically to guard against sun anywhere? Thanks.

What can I do next?

So What Happened?™

I did look at Target - that's where I got one last year. But when I looked this week, they only had them up to 12 month sizes! I'll need a 2 or 3T. Maybe there were just out of stock. I'll look again and try a different Target. Thanks for the websites too. That's a great option if I can't find one locally. Ya'll are great! Thanks.

A friend just bought me one for my son at her Dermatologist. I think it was only $25. I think it is also 100% on the sun blockage.
