FAQs

What does 'LYCRA XTRA LIFE' mean for the swimsuit's performance?

LYCRA XTRA LIFE fiber provides enhanced resistance to chlorine and heat, helping the swimsuit retain its shape and color for up to 10 times longer than suits made with ordinary elastane.

How do I best care for my swimsuit to maximize its lifespan?

Rinse in cold water after each use, machine wash at 40 degrees with mild detergent, and dry flat in the shade. Avoid bleach, ironing, dry cleaning, and tumble drying.

Is this swimsuit suitable for competitive swimming?

Yes, the durable construction and chlorine resistance make it suitable for regular training and competitive swimming where longevity and performance are important.

Can I use this swimsuit in a saltwater pool?

Yes, but it's crucial to rinse thoroughly with fresh water after use to remove salt residue, just as you would after swimming in the sea.

What is the fabric composition of the swimsuit?

The swimsuit is made from 82% Nylon and 18% Lycra.

Does the lining affect the swimsuit's water resistance or drag?

The full lining is designed for comfort and reassurance. While it adds a layer, its primary purpose is not water resistance or drag reduction, but rather to provide a smooth finish and support.

Troubleshooting

Swimsuit losing elasticity quickly

Ensure the swimsuit is rinsed thoroughly in cold water after every use to remove chlorine. Avoid harsh detergents and do not tumble dry.

Fading of color

Always dry the swimsuit in the shade and away from direct sunlight. While the LYCRA XTRA LIFE fiber offers color retention, prolonged sun exposure can still cause fading.

Discomfort or poor fit

Verify that the correct size has been selected. Ensure the swimsuit is properly rinsed and that no fabric care instructions have been overlooked, which could affect material properties.
