Slazenger LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ Boyleg Swimming Suit - Blue - 9-10

LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ is a specialized fiber engineered for swimwear that provides enhanced durability. It's designed to resist degradation from chlorine, heat, and sunscreen up to 10 times longer than standard elastane fibers, helping the suit maintain its shape and fit over time.

Yes, its chlorine-resistant LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ fiber makes it highly durable and suitable for frequent use, such as daily swimming lessons or regular training sessions.

This particular variant of the swimming suit is designed for children aged 9-10 years old.

The suit is machine washable at 40 degrees Celsius. It's recommended to rinse it in cold, fresh water immediately after use, and then machine wash with a mild detergent. Do not tumble dry; air dry in the shade.

The suit is made from a fabric blend of 82% Recycled Polyester and 18% Lycra, offering both durability and stretch.

Info needed: The product description does not specify a UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) rating for this swimming suit. It is always recommended to use additional sun protection, such as sunscreen, when exposed to the sun.

Using recycled polyester helps reduce waste and the environmental impact associated with manufacturing new polyester. It provides a sustainable option without compromising on the fabric's quality or performance characteristics required for swimwear.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Refer to the Slazenger size guide for children's swimwear to confirm measurements. Swimwear should fit snugly but not restrict movement.

Verify that care instructions are being followed. Exposure to high chlorine levels without immediate rinsing, washing with hot water above 40 degrees, or using harsh detergents can degrade the LYCRA® fibers. Always rinse in cold water after use and machine wash at 40 degrees.

While the suit is designed to be chlorine-resistant, prolonged exposure to strong chemicals or intense sunlight can cause fading over time. Rinse the suit promptly after each use and dry it in the shade away from direct sunlight.

This can occur from rubbing against rough surfaces like pool edges, concrete, or velcro. Be mindful when sitting or leaning on such surfaces. Minor pilling can sometimes be carefully trimmed with small scissors.
