FAQs

What kind of activities is this swimsuit best suited for?

This Speedo Hyperboom Racerback Swimsuit is ideal for regular fitness training, lap swimming, aqua aerobics, and any active water sports where durability, comfort, and enhanced freedom of movement are desired.

What is EnduraFlex fabric?

EnduraFlex is a durable Speedo fabric designed for excellent shape retention, a comfortable fit, and superior chlorine resistance. A key feature is that the nylon yarns within EnduraFlex are made from 100% pre-consumer waste, making it a more environmentally conscious choice.

What does CREORA® HighClo™ mean?

CREORA® HighClo™ is a specialized technology incorporated into the fabric that provides significantly higher chlorine resistance compared to standard swimwear materials. This innovation helps the swimsuit maintain its shape, elasticity, and color for a much longer period, even with frequent exposure to chlorinated water.

How does the racerback design benefit swimming?

The racerback design offers exceptional freedom of shoulder movement, which is critical for performing various swimming strokes efficiently and without restriction. It also provides increased back coverage for added comfort and support during your swim sessions.

Does this swimsuit offer sun protection?

While the dense knit of swimwear fabrics generally provides some level of UV protection, a specific UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) rating is not provided for this swimsuit. For prolonged sun exposure, it's always recommended to use additional sun protection measures like sunscreen or cover-ups.

Is there bust padding in this swimsuit?

This swimsuit features a comfortable bust shelf liner, which is an internal fabric layer with an elasticated band designed for light support. It does not include removable or fixed padded inserts.

Can I machine wash this swimsuit?

For optimal care and to extend the life of your swimsuit, hand washing in cool water with a mild detergent is highly recommended. If you must machine wash, use a gentle cycle with cold water and place the suit in a mesh laundry bag to protect it.

Troubleshooting

The swimsuit feels too tight or uncomfortable during swimming, even in my usual size.

Speedo swimsuits, especially performance styles like the racerback, are designed for a snug fit to reduce drag. However, if it restricts movement or causes discomfort, double-check your measurements against Speedo's sizing chart. If you're between sizes or prefer a slightly looser fit for comfort, consider trying the next size up. The fabric should allow for full range of motion without digging into the skin.

The fabric seems to be losing its elasticity or shape prematurely, despite proper care.

While the EnduraFlex fabric with CREORA® HighClo™ is highly chlorine resistant, prolonged and very frequent exposure to extremely high chlorine concentrations (e.g., in some public pools or hot tubs) without immediate rinsing can still impact elasticity over time. Ensure you are rinsing thoroughly with cool, fresh water immediately after every swim and avoiding harsh detergents. If you swim daily, consider rotating between two or more swimsuits to allow each garment to fully recover and rest.

The color of my swimsuit appears to be fading more quickly than expected.

Fading can occur over time due to a combination of chlorine exposure and direct sunlight during drying. Always rinse your swimsuit immediately after use and avoid leaving it wet in a bag. When drying, always do so in a shaded area away from direct sunlight. While the CREORA® HighClo™ technology offers superior color retention, extreme conditions can still have an effect. Ensure mild detergent is used for washing.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High Chlorine Resistance: Extends the suit's lifespan significantly in chlorinated water, making it ideal for frequent use.
  • Excellent Shape Retention: Ensures a consistent and comfortable fit over many uses, resisting stretching and bagging.
  • Enhanced Freedom of Movement: The racerback design specifically supports a full range of shoulder motion for effective swimming.
  • Light Bust Support: Offers comfort and a secure feeling without heavy padding, suitable for active training.
  • Sustainable Choice: Manufactured using recycled pre-consumer waste nylon, contributing to a reduced environmental impact.

Cons

  • Performance-Oriented Fit: Designed for training, it may feel snug compared to leisure swimwear, which might not be preferred by all.
  • Specific Aesthetic: The iconic boom logo stripe and bright pink accents, while sporty, might not align with all personal style preferences.
  • No Adjustable Straps: The fixed racerback design does not allow for strap adjustments, relying on overall suit sizing for fit.

This swimsuit requires no complex setup; simply put it on and adjust for comfort.

Compatibility

Designed for adult females, the Speedo Hyperboom Racerback Swimsuit is suitable for various body types due to its shape-retaining fabric. For the most accurate fit, always refer to the official Speedo sizing guide. It is an excellent choice for individuals engaged in fitness swimming, aqua aerobics, or regular lap swimming.

Care Instructions

To maximize the lifespan and maintain the performance of your swimsuit:

  1. Rinse Immediately: After each use, rinse your swimsuit thoroughly in cool, fresh water to remove chlorine, saltwater, and body oils.
  2. Hand Wash Recommended: Gently hand wash with a mild, non-detergent soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals, bleach, or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the fabric and elasticity.
  3. Do Not Tumble Dry: Gently squeeze out excess water. Do not wring or twist the suit. Lay flat or hang to dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area.
  4. Avoid Direct Heat: Keep the swimsuit away from direct sunlight, radiators, or hot surfaces, as high heat can damage the fabric's elasticity and color.
  5. Avoid Rough Surfaces: Be mindful when sitting or leaning against rough surfaces (e.g., pool decks, unvarnished benches) to prevent snagging or pilling the fabric.
  6. Store Properly: Ensure the suit is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew and odor.
