We have a side by side Combi Twin Savvy and the only sun shades I find for a side by side covers the whole front of the stroller. Are there any other styles out there? I would think my twins would not like being totally covered.
 
I found my answer looking at the archives on here. Ray Shade at Target.com is exactly what I was hoping for. I just ordered one and got the 2 day shipping so it will arrive in time.
 
The two options I've found are the RayShade (approx $25 for a double) and the Protect-a-Bub (approx $50).

RayShades come in navy or black, attach with velcro, have pockets for storage, and are a stretchy material with a slight shiny sheen.

Protect-a-Bubs come in black (or navy I think) and some have contrasting color piping on the edges. They attach with ties and are a matte material with mesh-like openings. Of the two, this fabric seems like it will breathe more and be cooler, but at twice the price, it may not be enough of a difference to be worthwhile.
 
I have a Ray Shade for my double. It was a LIFESAVER in WDW. It is perfect for using all day. You can adjust the amount of coverage to above the kids to the full front of the stroller. I have very fair skinned kids and DD hates the sun getting in her eyes, so she would let me know when I needed to pull down the shade.
The kids didn't have any sunburn between the ray shade and morning sunscreen, they were not hot, and when DS napped in the stroller I could pull it all the way down. It is so lightweight that it is not stifling and folded with the stroller easily. I love it and so did the kids. I had at least 10 people stop me and ask about it. Love, love, love the ray shade!

Oh great! I have a protect-a-bub single at home, but just ordered a rayshade double for our next Disney trip. Much as I love my protect-a-bub, I wish it had a handy pocket that you can store it in like the ray shade and it doesn't fold very well with my umbrella style stroller. Now that I know the rayshade isn't too hot and folds nicely, the last of my worries about it are gone.
