FAQs
What makes Endurance+ fabric different?
Endurance+ fabric is a Speedo exclusive blend (53% Polyester, 47% PBT Polyester) designed for superior chlorine resistance and shape retention compared to standard swimwear materials. It's also quick-drying and offers UPF 50+ protection.
Is this swimsuit suitable for competitive swimming?
While the Endurance+ fabric is durable and offers good flexibility, this Medalist design is primarily intended for regular training sessions and swim lessons. Competitive swimmers may prefer suits with a more streamlined cut and ultra-lightweight materials.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
Refer to the UK children's dress size guide provided by Speedo. It's recommended to measure your child and compare it to the sizing chart to find the best fit, ensuring comfort and proper function.
Can I use this swimsuit in a saltwater pool?
Yes, the swimsuit is suitable for both chlorinated pools and saltwater. However, it is crucial to rinse it thoroughly in fresh water after every use, regardless of the water type.
What does 'Post-Consumer Waste' mean in the description?
It means the fabric is made from materials that have been used by consumers and then recycled. In this case, 100% of the polyester in the fabric is derived from post-consumer waste, making the swimsuit more environmentally friendly.
How often should I replace my swimsuit?
With proper care (rinsing after each use, hand washing, drying flat), this Endurance+ swimsuit is designed for longevity. However, even the most durable suits will eventually wear out with frequent use. Look for signs of lost elasticity or significant color fading as indicators for replacement.
Troubleshooting
Swimsuit losing elasticity or color fading quickly.
Ensure the swimsuit is rinsed thoroughly in fresh water immediately after each use to remove chlorine. Avoid using harsh detergents or leaving the suit to soak.
Fabric feels less smooth or pilled.
This can sometimes occur from contact with rough surfaces like pool edges or abrasive mats. Always ensure the swimsuit is laid flat to dry and avoid sitting on rough surfaces.
Swimsuit feels stiff after washing.
This might be due to mineral buildup from pool water. Try a gentle hand wash with a mild detergent and ensure it's rinsed thoroughly. Avoid fabric softeners.
