FAQs
What does 'shaping swimsuit' mean?
A shaping swimsuit uses fabric technology and design elements like ruching to create a smoother, more streamlined silhouette, offering a flattering effect on the body.
Is this swimsuit suitable for competitive swimming?
While designed for regular swim sessions, its medium bust support and fabric composition make it suitable for training and fitness swimming rather than high-level competitive racing where more specialized suits might be preferred.
How does the recycled polyamide benefit the environment?
Using recycled polyamide conserves resources and reduces waste by repurposing materials that would otherwise be discarded, contributing to a more sustainable production cycle.
Can I machine wash this swimsuit?
It is recommended to hand wash the swimsuit with a mild detergent. Machine washing can be too harsh and may damage the fabric's integrity and elasticity.
What is Xtra Life™ elastane?
Xtra Life™ elastane is a type of elastane fiber that provides increased resistance to chlorine, heat, and UV rays compared to standard elastane, ensuring the swimsuit retains its shape and softness for longer.
What does OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification mean?
This certification indicates that the product has been tested for harmful substances and is therefore safe for human health. It's an independent verification of product safety.
Does the swimsuit have padding or underwire?
No, this swimsuit is non-padded and non-underwired, focusing on a natural fit and comfort with built-in bust support through its construction.
Troubleshooting
Swimsuit losing elasticity
Ensure the swimsuit is rinsed thoroughly after each use and is dried flat away from direct heat and sunlight. Avoid machine washing and harsh detergents.
Color fading
Rinsing immediately after use and drying out of direct sunlight helps preserve color. While durable, prolonged exposure to strong UV rays can cause fading over time.
Fit feels too tight or too loose
The adjustable straps help personalize the fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size based on the size chart. The material is designed to offer gentle shaping.
