Troubleshooting

Color fading

Rinse immediately after use in chlorinated or salt water. Wash in cold water with mild detergent and dry in the shade.

Stretching or loss of shape

Avoid wringing or twisting the fabric. Lay flat to dry and do not use fabric softeners.

Discomfort due to fit

Ensure you have selected the correct size based on the provided waist measurements. The low-rise, tiny cut is intentional; consider a different style if more coverage is desired.
