FAQs
Is this swimsuit suitable for competitive swimming?
While comfortable and functional for general use, the non-wired padded cups and design are primarily suited for leisure activities rather than high-intensity competitive swimming which may require more specialized support.
How do I know which size to order?
Refer to the specific sizing chart provided by the retailer. Measure your bust, waist, and hip circumference and compare these measurements to the chart to find the best fit.
Can I machine wash this swimsuit?
It is recommended to hand wash the swimsuit in cold water with a mild detergent. Machine washing, especially on higher cycles or with harsh detergents, can damage the fabric and reduce its lifespan.
What does UPF 50+ protection mean?
UPF 50+ indicates that the fabric blocks over 98% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation, offering excellent protection against sunburn and long-term skin damage.
Is the tummy control panel restrictive?
The tummy control panel is designed to offer a flattering shape through gentle support. It should not be overly restrictive, allowing for comfortable movement.
How do I care for the recycled fabric?
Care for the recycled fabric the same way as conventional swimwear: rinse after use, hand wash with mild detergent, and dry flat away from direct heat. This helps preserve the fabric's integrity and environmental benefits.
Does the print fade over time?
Following the care instructions, particularly rinsing after use and avoiding harsh chemicals, will help to maintain the vibrancy of the print.
Troubleshooting
Swimsuit feels too tight or loose
Adjust the shoulder straps. If the issue persists, re-check the size against the product's sizing guide and consider if a different size is needed.
Strap adjustment is difficult
Ensure the strap is not twisted. Gently pull the adjuster while holding the strap firmly. If it remains stiff, check for any debris caught in the adjuster.
Fabric fading or losing elasticity
Follow the care instructions diligently. Rinse immediately after use, hand wash in cold water, and avoid harsh chemicals or high heat drying.
Padding in cups is uneven
Remove the padding, smooth it out, and reinsert it ensuring it lies flat within the cup lining.
