Troubleshooting

Swim brief feels too tight or too loose

Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the ellesse sizing chart. If between sizes, consider the minimal cut and choose based on your preference for tighter or looser fit.

Discomfort during wear

Verify the correct size. Ensure the waistband and leg openings are not digging into the skin. Rinse thoroughly after each use to remove salt or chlorine residue which can affect fabric feel.

Fading of color

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and harsh chemicals like chlorine or strong detergents. Always follow the recommended hand-wash and dry-flat instructions.
