Product Information
Full details
The Slazenger LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ Boyleg Swimsuit in Blue (Size 8) is designed for active adult women seeking a durable and comfortable swimwear option for training or recreational water activities. Its primary benefit is the exceptional longevity and chlorine resistance provided by the LYCRA XTRA LIFE fabric. A potential consideration is that the athletic cut, while providing security, may offer less flexibility for those seeking a more form-fitting style. This swimsuit features a racerback design for support and freedom of movement, and an athletic boyleg cut for full coverage.

FAQs
What does LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ mean for my swimsuit?
LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ fabric is engineered to provide a much longer lifespan for your swimsuit compared to conventional swimwear. It offers superior resistance to chlorine, heat, and UV rays, meaning it retains its shape and color for extended periods.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the brand's specific size chart for the Slazenger LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ Boyleg Swimsuit. Measurements should be taken around the bust, waist, and hips. The model shown is UK size 8.
Is this swimsuit suitable for competitive swimming?
While designed for active use and offering good range of motion, its primary focus is on durability and coverage for training and recreational activities rather than the ultra-streamlined fit often preferred for competitive racing.
Can I use this swimsuit in the ocean?
Yes, the durable construction is suitable for use in both pool and sea environments. It is recommended to rinse the swimsuit with fresh water after swimming in the ocean to remove salt and sand.
What is the material composition?
The swimsuit is made from 82% recycled polyester and 18% LYCRA, offering both performance and a more sustainable material choice.
How should I wash this swimsuit?
Machine wash at 40°C with a mild detergent and similar colors. Avoid bleach, ironing, and dry cleaning. Always rinse in cold, fresh water after use.
What are the benefits of the boyleg cut?
The boyleg cut provides additional coverage on the leg, offering a secure and modest silhouette that is less likely to ride up during active water sports or swimming.
Troubleshooting
Swimsuit losing elasticity
Ensure the swimsuit is rinsed thoroughly with fresh water after each use to remove chlorine or salt, which can degrade elastic fibers. Follow the recommended washing and drying instructions.
Discoloration or fading
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying. Always rinse immediately after swimming. Washing at the recommended temperature (40°C) and with mild detergent helps preserve color.
Chafing or discomfort during activity
Ensure the correct size is selected. The athletic cut provides coverage, but if discomfort persists, consider if the fit is too tight or if a different style might be more suitable for your specific activity.
