FAQs

What does UPF 50+ mean?

What is the fabric made of?

The fabric is made from 85% recycled polyester and 15% elastane.

How should I care for my bikini shorts?

Rinse immediately after use, machine wash at 30°C with similar colours, do not bleach, do not tumble dry, and do not iron. Lay flat to dry.

Can I wear these for intense water sports?

Yes, the design and fabric offer a secure fit and freedom of movement suitable for active water sports.

What sizes are available?

Does this come with a matching top?

No, this product is for the bikini short only and needs to be paired with a separate bikini top.

Is the recycled polyester good for the environment?

Using recycled polyester helps to reduce waste and the demand for virgin polyester, making it a more sustainable choice.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels stiff after washing

Ensure you have rinsed thoroughly after use to remove salt or chlorine, and avoid using fabric softeners which can degrade the fabric's properties.

Color fading

Wash inside out with similar colours and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying. Store away from direct light when not in use.

Reduced stretchiness

Avoid high temperatures during washing and drying. Ensure you follow the recommended washing temperatures and do not iron.
