FAQs

What material is this swimsuit made of?

The swimsuit is made of 80% Polyamide and 20% Elastane, with a minimum of 60% certified recycled nylon.

How should I wash this swimsuit?

It can be machine washed. It is recommended to wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and dry flat.

Does this swimsuit offer sun protection?

The product information does not specify any UPF rating or sun protection features. It is advisable to use additional sun protection.

What does 'Open Back Detail' mean?

This means the back of the swimsuit has a design that is open, exposing the skin, rather than being fully covered.

Is this swimsuit suitable for competitive swimming?

While comfortable for leisure, the design with a high neck and open back may not provide the optimal support and compression required for competitive swimming.

What is the benefit of using recycled nylon?

Using recycled nylon helps reduce waste and environmental impact compared to virgin nylon production.

Can I find this swimsuit in other sizes?

Yes, this style is available in various sizes. Please check the available product listings for different size options.

Troubleshooting

Swimsuit fading after washing

Ensure you are using a cold wash cycle and avoiding harsh detergents. Dry flat out of direct sunlight.

Loss of elasticity

Avoid prolonged exposure to high heat (like hot tubs) and rinse thoroughly after swimming in chlorinated or salt water. Ensure proper drying methods are followed.

Sizing seems incorrect

Refer to the brand's specific size chart for accurate measurements. Model's height and size worn (Luna is 5'10" and wears a UK size 8/S) can be a helpful reference point.
