Product Information
Full details
This Slazenger LYCRA XTRA LIFE Swimsuit is designed for young female swimmers aged 9-10, offering durability and comfort for both training and leisure. Its key benefit is the advanced LYCRA XTRA LIFE fiber, which provides superior chlorine resistance for extended wear. A potential caveat for some users might be the thin shoulder straps, which, while streamlined, may not offer the same support as wider straps for very active or competitive swimmers.

Troubleshooting
Swimsuit loses elasticity quickly
Ensure the swimsuit is rinsed thoroughly with cold water after each use to remove chlorine. Machine wash at 40 degrees as recommended and avoid drying in direct sunlight.
Discoloration of the fabric
While the LYCRA XTRA LIFE fiber offers good color retention, prolonged exposure to strong sunlight after washing can cause fading. Always dry the swimsuit in shade.
Skin irritation
Ensure the swimsuit is properly rinsed after use to remove any residual pool chemicals. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.
