Extended Product Information

FAQs

What age group is this swimming suit designed for?

This specific swimming suit is for children aged `9-10` years, as indicated by the size. Other sizes may be available depending on the product listing.

How does LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ benefit the swimming suit?

`LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™` fiber provides superior resistance to chlorine, allowing the swimming suit to last up to 10 times longer than suits made with ordinary elastane. This helps maintain its shape, fit, and color over time.

What is the material composition of the swimming suit?

The swimming suit is made from `82% Recycled Polyester` and `18% Lycra`, offering a balance of durability, stretch, and comfort.

Can I machine wash this swimming suit?

Yes, it is machine washable. For best results and to preserve the fabric's properties, please wash at `40 degrees Celsius` using a mild detergent.

Is this suit suitable for competitive swimming?

The `slick and simple` design makes it practical and comfortable for regular training, swimming lessons, and recreational swimming. While durable, it's primarily designed for general use rather than high-performance competitive racing that might require specialized features.

What are the advantages of a boyleg design?

The `boyleg design` offers increased coverage compared to traditional brief-cut swimwear, providing a secure and comfortable fit, especially for active movements in the water, and a modest aesthetic.

Is the "cut out back panel" merely decorative?

The `cut out back panel` is both a stylistic element and contributes to the suit's `stretch-fit` by allowing greater freedom of movement and reducing fabric bunching, enhancing comfort during swimming.

Troubleshooting

The swimming suit feels too tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure the correct size has been chosen. While `stretch-fit`, an ill-fitting suit can restrict movement. Consult a sizing guide if necessary, as children's sizes can vary.

The fabric appears to be stretching out or losing elasticity faster than expected.

Although made with `LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™` for durability, prolonged exposure to high chlorine levels without proper rinsing or improper washing temperatures can affect fabric integrity. Always rinse thoroughly after use and machine wash at `40 degrees Celsius`.

The color seems to be fading.

While chlorine-resistant, no fabric is completely impervious to fading over extreme periods or with improper care. Ensure regular rinsing and correct washing temperature. Avoid drying in direct harsh sunlight for extended periods.

The suit causes skin irritation.

Ensure the suit is properly rinsed after each use to remove chlorine or salt residues. If irritation persists, check the fabric composition for any known sensitivities. Ensure it's not too tight, causing chafing.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly durable due to chlorine-resistant LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™
  • Comfortable and flexible stretch-fit fabric for active movement
  • Enhanced longevity compared to regular swimwear, saving replacement costs
  • Made with environmentally conscious recycled polyester
  • Practical and modest boyleg design for secure coverage

Cons

  • Slick and simple design might lack elaborate patterns or features some prefer
  • Specific sizing (9-10 years) requires careful selection for optimal fit
  • Info needed: No specific built-in sun protection rating is provided

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

No specific 'setup' is required beyond ensuring the correct size for a comfortable and secure fit. Refer to standard children's clothing size guides if unsure, as an appropriate fit is essential for comfort and performance in the water.

Compatibility

This swimming suit is designed for use in all standard chlorinated swimming pools. It's suitable for various swimming activities, from swimming lessons and casual dips to more active recreational use.

Care

To maximize the lifespan and maintain the properties of your swimming suit, follow these care instructions:

  1. Rinse Immediately: After each use, especially in chlorinated or saltwater, rinse the suit thoroughly with cool, fresh water.
  2. Machine Wash: Machine wash at `40 degrees Celsius` using a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or harsh cleaning agents.
  3. Avoid Softeners: Fabric softeners can sometimes degrade the elastic fibers over time.
  4. Air Dry: Lay flat or hang to air dry in the shade. Avoid direct sunlight or high heat sources (like radiators or tumble dryers), as these can damage the `Lycra` fibers and cause fading.
