Full details
This Slazenger LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ Boyleg Swimsuit is designed for active women seeking a durable and supportive swimwear option for lap swimming, water sports, and beach activities. Its key benefit lies in the LYCRA XTRA LIFE fabric, offering superior chlorine resistance and longevity. A potential consideration is that the boyleg cut provides full coverage, which may be more coverage than some prefer for casual wear. The swimsuit features a racerback design for freedom of movement and a secure, athletic fit.

FAQs
What makes the LYCRA XTRA LIFE fabric special?
LYCRA XTRA LIFE fabric is engineered to be highly resistant to chlorine damage, providing up to 10 times more durability than standard swimwear fabrics. This means it retains its shape, color, and elasticity for much longer, even with frequent use in chlorinated pools.
Is this swimsuit suitable for competitive swimming?
Yes, the athletic boyleg cut and racerback design offer a streamlined fit and full range of motion, making it suitable for training and competitive swimming.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the sizing guide provided by Slazenger. Try the swimsuit on to ensure it fits snugly without being uncomfortably tight. The boyleg cut should provide full coverage without riding up.
Can I use this swimsuit in the ocean?
Yes, the swimsuit is suitable for use in saltwater. However, it's crucial to rinse it thoroughly with fresh water immediately after swimming in the ocean to remove salt and sand.
What does '82% RECYCLED polyester' mean?
This indicates that a significant portion of the fabric used in this swimsuit is made from recycled materials, contributing to a more sustainable production process.
Will this swimsuit fade in the sun?
While the fabric is designed for durability, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can eventually cause colors to fade. It's recommended to rinse the suit and dry it out of direct sunlight.
Troubleshooting
Swimsuit loses elasticity quickly.
Ensure the swimsuit is rinsed thoroughly with cold, fresh water after each use to remove chlorine or salt. Follow the machine wash and care instructions precisely, avoiding harsh detergents or high temperatures.
Fabric feels stiff or rough.
This can sometimes occur with prolonged exposure to chlorine. Ensure proper rinsing and washing. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the fabric's performance over time.
Racerback feels restrictive.
Verify that the correct size has been selected. Ensure the straps are lying flat and not twisted. The racerback is designed for support, but a poorly fitted suit can feel constricting.
