Troubleshooting
Wetsuit seems too tight or too loose.
Refer to the size guide and ensure you have selected the correct size for your baby's current measurements. A snug fit is ideal, but it should not restrict movement or breathing.
Velcro fastening is irritating the baby's skin.
Ensure the Velcro is securely fastened and that the baby's skin is not caught within it. For added comfort, a thin layer or bodysuit can be worn underneath.
Reduced warmth or insulation.
Check that the wetsuit is properly fitted and that there are no large gaps where water can easily enter and exit. Ensure the fleece lining is clean and dry.
Material feels stiff after washing.
Avoid using fabric softeners or harsh detergents. Always rinse thoroughly after swimming and air dry, as recommended in the care instructions.
