FAQs

What materials is the Regatta Sakari Swim Costume made from?

It is made from 85% recycled Polyester and 15% Elastane, providing a soft-touch stretch fabric that is both comfortable and supportive.

Is this swim costume suitable for competitive swimming?

The Regatta Sakari Swim Costume is designed for leisure swimming, beachwear, and casual water activities. While durable, it is not specifically engineered for the demands of competitive swimming or high-performance athletics.

How should I wash my swim costume?

For best results and to maintain its longevity, we recommend hand washing your costume in cold water with a mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly after use and air dry flat or hang in the shade. Do not bleach, iron, or tumble dry.

Does this costume offer UV protection?

While the fabric provides a basic level of sun protection, there is no specific UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) rating provided. For extended sun exposure, it is always recommended to use additional sun protection measures.

How effective is the tummy control panel?

The integrated tummy control panel is designed to provide a smooth and flattering silhouette, offering gentle support and enhancing your natural shape without feeling overly restrictive.

Is this product sustainable?

Yes, a significant portion of the material (85% Polyester) is made from recycled plastic bottles, making it a more environmentally conscious choice.

Troubleshooting

Fabric losing elasticity or becoming baggy.

This is often caused by exposure to harsh chemicals or high heat. Always rinse immediately after use, hand wash in cold water with mild detergent, and air dry away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Avoid prolonged exposure to highly chlorinated water if possible.

Color fading.

Fading can occur over time due to sun exposure and chlorine. To minimize this, rinse the costume in fresh water immediately after swimming, wash as directed, and always air dry in the shade. Avoid leaving it to dry in direct sunlight for extended periods.

General discomfort or improper fit.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The Regatta Sakari Swim Costume is designed for a flattering fit, but if it feels too tight or loose, consider trying a different size. While this specific model does not mention adjustable straps, a proper initial fit is key.

Care Instructions

To ensure your Regatta Sakari Swim Costume remains in excellent condition and maintains its flattering fit, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Rinse Immediately: After each use, rinse your swim costume thoroughly in cool, fresh water. This helps remove chlorine, salt, sand, and sun cream residues.
  2. Hand Wash Recommended: For best results, hand wash with a mild detergent in cold water. Avoid harsh soaps or bleaches.
  3. Do Not Wring: Gently squeeze out excess water. Wringing can damage the fabric fibers and elasticity.
  4. Dry Flat or Line Dry: Lay the costume flat on a clean towel or hang it in a shaded area to air dry. Avoid direct sunlight, which can cause colors to fade and fabric to degrade.
  5. Avoid High Heat: Do not tumble dry, iron, or use hot water. High heat can damage the Elastane, leading to a loss of stretch and shape.
  6. Store Properly: Ensure the costume is completely dry before storing it in a cool, dry place to prevent mildew and odors.
