FAQs

What makes LYCRA XTRA LIFE fiber different?

LYCRA XTRA LIFE fiber is engineered to resist damage from chlorine and heat, lasting up to 10 times longer than ordinary elastane fibers, maintaining the shape and fit of your swimsuit.

What is the fabric composition of this swimsuit?

The swimsuit is made from 82% Nylon and 18% Lycra.

How should I wash this swimsuit?

You can machine wash the swimsuit at 40 degrees Celsius. Always rinse with cool, fresh water after use.

Can I use this swimsuit in a chlorinated pool?

Yes, this swimsuit is specifically designed with LYCRA XTRA LIFE fiber to withstand chlorine and maintain its integrity in chlorinated pools.

What does 'shape retentive' mean?

Shape retentive fabric means the material is designed to stretch and recover its original shape, ensuring a snug and supportive fit that doesn't become baggy over time.

Is this swimsuit suitable for competitive swimming?

While durable and comfortable, this is a basic swimsuit. Its design is suitable for recreational swimming and fitness, but may not offer the specific hydrodynamic features required for competitive racing.

Troubleshooting

Swimsuit losing elasticity quickly

Ensure the swimsuit is always rinsed thoroughly with fresh water after each use to remove chlorine and salt, which are common causes of material degradation. Follow machine washing instructions carefully.

Fading color

While the LYCRA XTRA LIFE fiber is durable, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading. Always dry the swimsuit flat in the shade rather than in direct sunlight.

Fabric pilling or snagging

Avoid contact with rough surfaces, such as pool decks or rocks, which can snag or pill the fabric. Hand washing or using a mesh laundry bag can also help protect the material.
