Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or difficult to slide
Ensure the fabric is flat and not caught in the zipper teeth; gently work the zipper up and down while the suit is dry to loosen.
Straps are slipping during movement
Try converting the straps to a crossed configuration to secure them firmly against the shoulders.
Fabric appears to lose elasticity over time
Ensure you are hand-washing with mild detergent and strictly avoiding heat sources like dryers or radiators.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Zip Tide swimsuit, always rinse the garment in cold, fresh water immediately after use in chlorinated pools or saltwater to remove residues. Avoid wringing or twisting the fabric, as this can damage the elasticity. Lay the suit flat to dry in the shade, away from direct sunlight, which can fade the vibrant red color. When adjusting the straps or the zipper, ensure you are not pulling on the fabric, but rather sliding the hardware smoothly. For the best fit, reference the UK dress size equivalents: Medium corresponds to a UK 12, Large to a UK 16, and XL to a UK 22.
