Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Katrisse swimming costume is designed for young girls, offering comfort and durability for beach or pool days. Its key benefit is the blend of a stretchy, robust fabric with UV protection, ensuring comfort and safeguarding skin. A minor consideration is that specific features like light foam cups are only included in older sizes (13 yrs+). This one-piece features a racer-back design for freedom of movement and is available in various vibrant patterns.

FAQs
What sizes are available for the light foam cups?
Light foam cups are included in sizes for children aged 13 years and older.
Can I wear this costume for sports other than swimming?
While the costume is designed for swimming with its durable and stretchy fabric, its UV protection and secure fit make it suitable for general beach or pool activities.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the size guide and ensure the costume fits snugly but comfortably. It should not restrict movement but should not be loose. The racer-back design should lie flat against the back.
Is this costume suitable for sensitive skin?
The costume is made from a blend of polyester and elastane, which is generally well-tolerated. It also offers UPF 30+ protection, which can help shield skin from the sun.
Are matching swim hats included?
No, matching swim hats (models RKC270 & RKC254) are available for purchase separately.
How should I wash the swimming costume?
Hand wash or machine wash on a delicate cycle at 30°C with a mild detergent. Rinse immediately after use in cold, fresh water.
What does UPF 30+ mean?
UPF 30+ indicates that the fabric provides a Ultraviolet Protection Factor of 30 or higher, meaning it blocks at least 97% of the sun's harmful UV radiation.
Troubleshooting
Strap slipping during wear
Ensure the size is correct. A slightly too-large costume may cause straps to slip. Check that the racer-back is lying flat against the back.
Fading of color after several uses
Rinse the costume in cold, fresh water immediately after each use, especially after swimming in chlorinated pools or saltwater. Always dry flat away from direct sunlight.
Fabric losing elasticity
Avoid prolonged exposure to high heat, such as leaving the costume in direct sunlight for extended periods or using a tumble dryer. Hand washing or using a delicate machine cycle at 30°C is recommended.
