Troubleshooting
Swimsuit feels loose after a few wears.
Ensure the correct size was purchased. Polyester can retain its shape well, but significant stretching might indicate an improperly fitted suit or excessive wear beyond its lifespan.
Discoloration of the fabric.
Rinse immediately after swimming to remove chlorine. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying, and follow the recommended washing instructions to prevent color loss.
Straps are digging into shoulders.
While straps are fixed, ensure the swimsuit is the correct size. If the suit fits correctly elsewhere, this may be a personal comfort issue related to the racerback design.
