FAQs
What does LYCRA XTRA LIFE mean for the swimsuit?
LYCRA XTRA LIFE fiber is a special type of elastane that is significantly more resistant to chlorine damage compared to standard elastane. This means the swimsuit will maintain its shape and elasticity up to 10 times longer, offering better durability and value.
Is this swimsuit suitable for competitive swimming?
Yes, the streamlined design with thin shoulder straps and open back is suitable for training and competitive swimming, allowing for a full range of motion. However, some swimmers may prefer wider straps for added support during intense sessions.
How should I clean the swimsuit?
You can machine wash the swimsuit at 40 degrees Celsius. It is crucial to rinse it thoroughly in cold, fresh water immediately after each use to remove chlorine and salt.
Can I use bleach or put this in the dryer?
No, you should not use bleach, iron, or dry clean this swimsuit. It should also not be tumble dried. Always dry flat away from direct sunlight.
What is the fabric composition?
The fabric is composed of 82% Recycled Nylon and 18% Elastane.
What age group is this swimsuit for?
This swimsuit is designed for junior girls, with this specific model being size 7-8.
How does the recycled nylon benefit the environment?
Using recycled nylon helps reduce waste and the demand for virgin raw materials, contributing to a more sustainable production process.
Troubleshooting
Swimsuit loses elasticity or shape quickly.
Ensure the swimsuit is rinsed thoroughly with cold, fresh water immediately after each use. Avoid prolonged exposure to heat and direct sunlight during drying. Check that the care label instructions are being followed precisely, especially regarding washing temperature and detergents.
Color fading after a few uses.
Rinse the swimsuit immediately after use. Avoid harsh detergents and bleaching agents. Dry the swimsuit flat, away from direct sunlight. While the fabric is chlorine-resistant, prolonged exposure to strong sunlight can cause fading over time.
Chafing or discomfort from straps.
Ensure the correct size is being worn. If discomfort persists, consider trying a swimsuit with wider straps if available. The current design features thin straps for a streamlined fit.
