FAQs
Is this legsuit suitable for competitive swimming?
While designed for durability and performance, this legsuit is primarily for training, fitness, and recreational swimming. For competitive racing, you might consider Speedo's FINA-approved racing suits, which are designed for maximum compression and hydrodynamics.
Does the bust shelf liner offer enough support for larger cup sizes?
The legsuit features a classic bust shelf liner, which provides light support. For individuals with larger cup sizes or those seeking more substantial support during high-impact water activities, an additional sports bra designed for water might be considered for enhanced comfort, though the suit is designed to hold the bust in place for most activities.
How does the recycled material affect the suit's performance?
The use of recycled post-consumer waste in one of the yarns does not compromise the performance or durability of the Endurance+ fabric. It retains all the benefits, including 100% chlorine resistance, quick-drying properties, and shape retention, while being more environmentally friendly.
Can I machine wash this legsuit?
For optimal longevity and to preserve the fabric's integrity, hand washing in cool water with mild detergent is recommended. Machine washing, even on a gentle cycle, can be harsher on swimwear and may reduce its lifespan.
Will the HyperBoom logo print fade over time?
The HyperBoom logo print, like the rest of the Endurance+ fabric, is designed for long-lasting performance and color retention, especially with its 100% chlorine resistance. Following proper care instructions will help prevent premature fading.
What size should I choose if I'm between sizes?
Speedo swimwear generally has a snug fit for optimal performance. If you are between sizes, consider your preference for fit: size down for a tighter, more performance-oriented feel, or size up for slightly more comfort and ease of movement. Always refer to the brand's size chart for accurate measurements.
Troubleshooting
Suit feels loose after a few wears.
Ensure you are following proper care instructions, especially rinsing after each use and avoiding high heat drying, which can damage elastic fibers. If the suit consistently feels loose, re-evaluate your size.
Fabric appears discolored or faded.
While 100% chlorine resistant, extreme chemical exposure or improper care can still affect color. Always rinse immediately after use. If the issue persists, review the pool's chemical balance or consider if prolonged exposure to direct sunlight during drying is a factor.
Fabric has snags or pilling.
Endurance+ fabric is durable, but snags can occur from contact with rough surfaces (e.g., pool decks, benches). Be cautious of where you sit or rub against. Pilling can sometimes be gently removed with a fabric shaver, but prevention is key.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Superior Durability: Endurance+ fabric provides exceptional longevity, making it a cost-effective choice over time.
- Excellent Chlorine Resistance: Guarantees the suit maintains its shape and color even with frequent use in chlorinated pools.
- Increased Coverage: Ideal for swimmers desiring more modesty, sun protection, or a streamlined feel in the water.
- Light Support: The bust shelf liner offers comfortable, light support for a range of aquatic activities.
- Eco-Conscious Choice: Incorporates recycled materials, appealing to environmentally aware consumers.
- Quick Drying: Enhances comfort post-swim and makes the suit easy to manage.
Cons
- Specific Style: The legsuit design may not be preferred by all swimmers or suitable for casual lounging.
- Limited Bust Support for High Impact: While offering light support, it might not be sufficient for very high-impact water activities or those requiring maximum bust support.
- Less Sun Exposure: The increased coverage means less skin is exposed to sunlight, which could be a factor for those seeking to tan.
Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup
This legsuit requires no special setup. Simply put it on as you would any swimsuit. Ensure a snug but comfortable fit to optimize performance and support.
Compatibility
- Activities: Designed for swimming, water aerobics, aqua fitness, and general pool use. It is highly compatible with chlorinated pools due to its specialized fabric.
- User: Suitable for adult female swimmers seeking extra coverage and durable swimwear.
Care
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your Speedo HyperBoom Legsuit.
- Rinse Immediately: After each use, rinse your legsuit thoroughly in cool, clean tap water to remove chlorine, salt, or body oils.
- Hand Wash Recommended: For best results, hand wash with a mild detergent. Avoid harsh soaps or bleach, as these can damage the fabric.
- Do Not Wring: Gently squeeze out excess water. Wringing can distort the suit's shape and damage the fibers.
- Dry Flat in Shade: Lay the legsuit flat on a clean, dry surface or hang it in a shaded area. Direct sunlight and high heat (like from a dryer) can degrade the fabric and elastic over time.
- Avoid Rough Surfaces: Be mindful when sitting on pool edges or abrasive surfaces, as this can cause pilling or snagging.
- Storage: Ensure the suit is completely dry before storing it to prevent mildew and odor.
