Can the Babolat Play Skirt be machine washed?

The Babolat Play Skirt, as described, is a standalone skirt and does not specify built-in shorts or pockets. We recommend pairing it with your preferred athletic shorts or briefs.
What colors are available for the Babolat Play Skirt?
This specific product is the Babolat Play Skirt in Black. Other variants of the Babolat Play Skirt may be available in different colors and sizes, such as blue or white, and for different age groups (kids or adults).
Is this skirt suitable for casual everyday wear?
While designed for athletic performance, its comfortable fit and versatile black color mean it can also be worn for casual activities or light exercise. However, its primary purpose is sports use.
What does 'Play Skirt' mean?
A 'Play Skirt' is Babolat's designation for an athletic skirt designed for active play, particularly in racket sports. It emphasizes freedom of movement and performance characteristics suitable for the court.
Troubleshooting
The skirt feels too tight or restrictive during movement.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. While this variant is Size 16, individual body shapes can vary. Consider if a larger size would offer more comfort, or if athletic underwear is causing restriction. The skirt should allow for full, unhindered athletic motion.
The fabric feels too warm or clammy during intense play.
While polyester is moisture-wicking, in extremely hot and humid conditions, any fabric can feel warm. Ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking athletic underwear. Take breaks to cool down and hydrate. For future purchases, consider lighter colors if heat absorption is a consistent issue.
Fabric appears to be pilling or snagging after use/washing.
To prevent pilling, wash the skirt inside out and avoid washing it with items that have zippers or rough textures. For snags, be careful when in contact with rough surfaces, rackets, or velcro. Hand washing or using a delicate cycle can also help preserve the fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility

Product Care
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your Babolat Play Skirt. Always refer to the garment's care label for precise instructions, but general guidelines for polyester apparel include:
- Washing: Machine wash cold with like colors. Using a gentle cycle can help maintain fabric integrity.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, which can damage the polyester fibers and color.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or, preferably, hang to air dry. High heat can cause polyester to lose its shape or damage its elastic properties over time.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a very low heat setting. Polyester generally resists wrinkles well, so ironing may not be needed. Do not iron over any logos or prints.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
