What is the fabric composition of this swimsuit?
The swimsuit is made from 82% Recycled Nylon and 18% Lycra, combining sustainability with high-performance stretch and durability.
Does this swimsuit offer UV protection?

How long can I expect this swimsuit to last?

What type of activities is the boyleg cut best for?

Troubleshooting
Swimsuit feels stretched out or loose after a few wears.
Ensure you are following the care instructions precisely. High heat from tumble drying or direct sunlight, and harsh chemicals, can compromise the fabric's elasticity. Always rinse immediately after use and air dry in the shade.
Color appears to be fading, despite chlorine resistance.
While highly chlorine resistant, extreme or prolonged exposure to very high chlorine concentrations or intense UV rays can still affect color over time. Ensure proper rinsing after each use and avoid leaving the swimsuit exposed to strong sun for extended periods when not in use.
Discomfort or chafing during prolonged swimming.
Verify that you have selected the correct size. A swimsuit that is too small or too large can cause chafing. Ensure all seams are lying flat and there are no wrinkles in the fabric when worn. If possible, test for comfort before extended use.
Fabric feels rough or stiff after washing.
This can sometimes happen if detergent residue remains. Ensure the swimsuit is thoroughly rinsed during washing. Avoid using excessive detergent or fabric softeners, which can build up on the fibers. A second rinse cycle might help.

Care Instructions
Proper care is crucial to maximize the lifespan of your Slazenger LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ Boyleg Swimsuit, especially given its chlorine-resistant properties.
- Rinse Immediately: After every use, thoroughly rinse your swimsuit in cool, fresh water. This helps remove chlorine, saltwater, and body oils.
- Machine Wash: The swimsuit is machine washable at 40 degrees Celsius. Place it in a mesh laundry bag to protect it from snags and tangles with other garments.
- Use Mild Detergent: Opt for a mild, non-bleach detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the LYCRA® fibers.
- Do Not Bleach: Bleach will severely damage the fabric and its chlorine resistance.
- Air Dry: Lay the swimsuit flat or hang it in a shaded area to air dry. Avoid direct sunlight and do not use a tumble dryer, as high heat can damage the fabric's elasticity and shape retention.
- Do Not Iron: Ironing is not recommended as heat can damage the fabric.
