FAQs

What age group is this swimsuit for?

This specific listing is for children aged 7-8 years. The Regatta Katrisse range is available in various sizes for different age groups.

Does the UPF 50+ protection wash out?

The UPF 50+ protection is woven into the fabric and is designed to be durable. Proper care and rinsing after each use will help maintain its effectiveness over time.

How do I clean the swimsuit?

The swimsuit can be machine washed at 30°C with similar colors. It's recommended to rinse it in cold water after each use and avoid tumble drying or ironing.

Is this swimsuit suitable for competitive swimming?

While the racer-back design allows for good movement, the primary design focus is on comfort and sun protection for recreational use. For competitive swimming, specialized suits may offer a more hydrodynamic fit.

What is the material composition?

The swimsuit is made from 85% Polyester and 15% Elastane, providing a durable, stretchy, and quick-drying fabric.

Can this swimsuit be tumble dried?

No, the swimsuit should not be tumble dried. It should be laid flat to dry to maintain its shape and fabric integrity.

Troubleshooting

Swimsuit feels tight or restrictive

Ensure the correct size has been purchased. Check measurements against the size guide. The stretch fabric should offer some give, but an incorrect size can cause discomfort.

Color fading after a few uses

Rinse the swimsuit thoroughly in cold water after each use, especially after swimming in chlorinated pools or saltwater. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not in use. Follow the recommended washing instructions.

Strap slipping during activity

Verify that the swimsuit is the correct size and fits snugly. The racer-back design is intended to prevent slippage, but a loose fit can still cause straps to slide. Ensure the garment is not overstretched.
