FAQs

What is LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ fiber?

LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ is a specialized elastane fiber designed to resist damage from chlorine, lotions, and body oils, making swimwear last significantly longer (up to 10 times more) than garments with ordinary elastane. It helps maintain the suit's shape and fit over time.

What age group is this swimming suit designed for?

This specific variant of the Slazenger Boyleg Swimming Suit is designed for kids, specifically in the 9-10 UK age range.

What is the material composition of the swimsuit?

The swimsuit is made from a blend of 82% Recycled Polyester and 18% Lycra.

How should I wash this swimsuit?

It is machine washable at 40 degrees Celsius. For best results and to preserve the fabric, use a gentle cycle, avoid bleach, and air dry only.

Does this swimsuit offer good coverage?

Yes, the boyleg design provides additional coverage compared to traditional brief-cut swimsuits, offering a more modest and secure fit for young swimmers.

Is the black color available in other sizes?

Yes, while this guide focuses on the 9-10 size, the Slazenger LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ Boyleg Swimming Suit in black is typically available in other children's sizes.

Can this swimsuit be used for competitive swimming?

While it's designed for durability and comfort, its 'slick and simple' design is versatile for both recreational swimming and training. For high-level competitive use, specialized racing suits may offer different performance advantages, but this suit is suitable for general training and club use.

Troubleshooting

Suit appears to be losing elasticity or fading prematurely.

This is often due to improper care. Ensure you are rinsing the suit immediately after each use and following the washing instructions carefully: machine wash at 40 degrees Celsius and air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive heat.

The suit feels too tight or too loose.

Ensure you have the correct size. This specific variant is for age 9-10. Always refer to sizing charts if available. While the stretch-fit fabric offers flexibility, an incorrect base size will impact comfort and performance.

Fabric snagging or pilling occurs.

This can happen if the suit comes into contact with rough surfaces like concrete pool edges or velcro. Be mindful of where the wearer sits or rubs. Handle with care during washing to prevent damage from other items with zippers or hooks.

Care Instructions

To ensure the longevity of your Slazenger LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ Boyleg Swimming Suit, follow these care steps:

  1. Rinse Immediately: After each use, rinse the swimsuit thoroughly with cool, clean water to remove chlorine, salt, or lotions.
  2. Machine Wash: The suit is machine washable. Wash at `40 degrees Celsius` using a gentle cycle with similar colors.
  3. Use Mild Detergent: Avoid harsh detergents, bleach, or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the fabric's elasticity and chlorine resistance.
  4. Do Not Tumble Dry: Air dry the swimsuit flat in the shade. High heat from tumble dryers can damage the `LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™` fibers.
  5. Avoid Rough Surfaces: Be mindful of sitting or rubbing against rough pool decks or surfaces, as this can cause pilling or snagging.
