FAQs

Can I machine wash the Regatta Aceana Bikini Short?

No, these bikini shorts require hand washing only. Machine washing can damage the delicate fabric and print, leading to premature wear and tear.

What materials are these bikini shorts made from?

They are made from a blend of 85% Polyester and 15% Elastane, offering a comfortable stretch and durability.

Do these shorts offer good coverage?

Yes, they are specifically cut to sit above the hip and provide good, modest coverage for the bottom, ensuring comfort and confidence.

How should I dry these bikini shorts?

After gently squeezing out excess water, lay them flat or hang them to air dry in the shade. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the fabric fibers.

Are they suitable for swimming in chlorinated pools?

Yes, they are suitable for pool use. However, to prolong their lifespan and maintain color vibrancy, it is highly recommended to rinse them thoroughly with fresh water immediately after exiting a chlorinated pool.

Will the floral print fade over time?

The signature Regatta print is designed to be durable. Following the recommended hand wash and air dry instructions, especially rinsing after use and avoiding direct prolonged sunlight when drying, will help preserve its vibrancy for longer.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels stiff or rough after washing.

Ensure you are using a very mild detergent and rinsing the shorts thoroughly after hand washing. Residue from detergents can sometimes make fabric feel stiff. Also, avoid using excessively hot water.

Color appears to be fading or dull.

To prevent color fading, always rinse your shorts in fresh water immediately after use in chlorinated or salt water. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying, and ensure you are only hand washing with mild detergents.

Shorts feel stretched out or lose shape.

The elastane in the fabric helps retain shape. Ensure you are not exposing the shorts to high heat (e.g., hot tubs for extended periods, tumble drying) and always follow the hand wash and air dry instructions. Overstretching when wet should also be avoided.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

There is no complex setup required for the Regatta Aceana Bikini Short. Simply wear as you would any swimwear bottom.

Compatibility:

These bikini shorts are designed to be a versatile bottom. They can be paired with a wide range of bikini tops, tankini tops, or rash guards depending on your personal style and activity needs.

Care:

Proper care is crucial to maintain the quality and lifespan of your bikini shorts. Always follow these instructions:

  1. Hand Wash Only: Use cool or lukewarm water with a mild detergent. Gently agitate the water and squeeze the fabric. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
  2. Rinse Thoroughly: After washing, rinse the shorts completely under cool, fresh water to remove all detergent residues.
  3. Avoid Bleach: Do not use any bleaching agents, as they can damage the fabric and fade the print.
  4. Do Not Tumble Dry: Gently squeeze out excess water, but do not wring forcefully. Lay flat or hang to air dry in the shade. Direct sunlight can cause colors to fade over time.
  5. Do Not Iron: The fabric blend is designed to be wrinkle-resistant. Ironing can damage the elastane fibers.
  6. Rinse After Use: Immediately rinse your bikini shorts in fresh water after swimming in chlorinated pools or saltwater to remove chemicals and salt, which can degrade the fabric.
