Full details

Its key benefit is providing excellent durability, chlorine resistance, and freedom of movement, thanks to the ECO Endurance+ fabric.

FAQs

What makes the ECO Endurance+ fabric eco-friendly?

The ECO Endurance+ fabric is made from 50% recycled materials, with one yarn specifically derived from 100% post-consumer waste, such as recycled plastic bottles.

How long can I expect this swimsuit to last with regular use?

Due to its 100% chlorine resistance and durable polyester blend, the Endurance+ Medalist swimsuit is designed for long-lasting wear, significantly outperforming standard swimwear in chlorinated pools.

Is this swimsuit suitable for competitive racing?

While excellent for training and fitness swimming, its cut and fabric are optimized for durability and comfort during regular use. For elite competition, swimmers might prefer suits with more advanced compression or hydrodynamic features.

Can I machine wash this swimsuit?

It is recommended to hand wash the swimsuit gently. Machine washing, especially with harsh detergents or high heat, can damage the fabric's fibers and reduce its lifespan.

What is the main benefit of the Medalist design?

The Medalist design is specifically crafted to provide excellent shoulder movement and flexibility, allowing swimmers to train in comfort without restriction.

Does the 'USA Red' color tend to fade?

The ECO Endurance+ fabric offers high colour performance, meaning it is designed to resist fading from chlorine and sunlight, helping the vibrant red color last longer.

What does 'medium leg' mean in terms of coverage?

A medium leg height offers a balanced level of coverage, sitting at a point that provides comfort and support without being overly high-cut or too low.

Troubleshooting

Swimsuit feels too tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Consult the size chart. The suit should feel snug but allow for full range of motion. Allow for a brief break-in period.

Color fading after a few uses.

This is unusual for ECO Endurance+ fabric. Ensure you are rinsing thoroughly after each use and avoiding prolonged sun exposure while wet. Use mild detergent only for washing.

Fabric pilling or snagging.

Avoid sitting or leaning on rough surfaces like concrete pool decks. Hand wash gently and dry flat to minimize stress on the fabric.

Straps feel uncomfortable or dig in.

Verify the size is correct. The Medalist design is intended to offer freedom; if discomfort persists, ensure the suit is not too small overall.
