Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Using your Speedo Aquashorts is straightforward. Simply put them on as you would any swimwear. The internal drawcord allows you to adjust the waist for a secure and comfortable fit. Ensure it's tied snugly but not too tight to avoid discomfort.
Compatibility
These aquashorts are designed for junior boys aged 9-10 (UK sizing) and are perfectly suited for:
- Swimming lessons
- Casual swimming at pools or beaches
- Water-based activities
- School sports days involving water
They are compatible with standard swimwear accessories like goggles, swimming caps, and rash vests.
Care
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your aquashorts and help maintain their shape and color:
- Rinse Immediately: After each use, rinse your shorts thoroughly in cool, clean water. This helps remove chlorine, salt water, and body oils that can degrade the fabric over time.
- Hand Wash Recommended: For best results, hand wash with a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or fabric softeners, as these can break down the `EnduraFlex` material and `CREORA® HighClo™` technology.
- Do Not Wring: Gently squeeze out excess water. Wringing can stretch and damage the fabric fibers, affecting shape retention.
- Dry Flat in Shade: Lay flat or hang to dry in a well-ventilated, shaded area. Direct sunlight and high heat (e.g., from a dryer) can cause fading, material breakdown, and loss of elasticity.
- Avoid Rough Surfaces: Be mindful when sitting on abrasive surfaces (like concrete pool edges), as this can cause pilling or snagging on the fabric.
- Hygiene Label: Remember that for returns, the hygiene label must remain attached and intact. Do not remove it unless you are certain you will keep the product.
