FAQs
What is LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ fiber?
LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ fiber is a specialized elastane designed to be highly resistant to chlorine, sunscreens, and heat. This significantly extends the lifespan of swimwear, making it last up to 10 times longer than swimsuits made with ordinary elastane.
Is this swimsuit suitable for frequent use in chlorinated pools?
Yes, absolutely. The primary benefit of the LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ fiber is its enhanced resistance to chlorine, making this swimsuit ideal for regular swimming lessons, training, or frequent leisure use in chlorinated environments.
How should I wash this swimsuit?
Machine wash at 40 degrees Celsius with a mild detergent. After washing, rinse thoroughly with cool water and air dry. Do not tumble dry, bleach, or use fabric softeners.
What is the material composition of the swimsuit?
The swimsuit is made from 82% Recycled Nylon and 18% LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ fiber. This blend provides durability, stretch, and shape retention.
What does "boyleg" mean for a swimsuit?
A boyleg swimsuit features a short leg cut that extends further down the thigh compared to traditional brief or high-cut styles. It offers more coverage and a secure, comfortable fit.
How do I ensure I get the correct size?
It's recommended to consult the official Slazenger sizing guide, usually available on their website or the product page. Measurements for chest, waist, and hips are typically used to find the best fit.
Can I wear this swimsuit for beach use as well?
Yes, the swimsuit is perfectly suitable for beach use. Its durable fabric and comfortable design make it versatile for both pool and open water activities. Just remember to rinse thoroughly after exposure to saltwater and sand.
Troubleshooting
Swimsuit feels stretched or has lost its shape quickly.
Ensure you are rinsing the swimsuit immediately after each use and washing it according to the care instructions (machine wash at 40°C, air dry). While the fabric is shape-retentive and chlorine-resistant, improper care or exposure to extremely harsh chemicals can still affect its lifespan.
Color appears to be fading.
Fading can occur from prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals or intense sunlight. Always rinse thoroughly after use and wash as directed. Store away from direct sunlight.
Discomfort or chafing during wear.
Check that you have the correct size. A swimsuit that is too small can cause discomfort, while one that is too large can bunch. Refer to the Slazenger sizing guide. Ensure straps are adjusted if applicable (though this is a fixed racer-back).
Fabric feels rough or stiff after washing.
This can sometimes happen with mineral buildup from hard water or residue from detergents. Ensure you are using a mild detergent and rinsing thoroughly. Avoid using fabric softeners.
