FAQs
Does this suit provide enough protection on its own?
The suit offers UPF 50+ protection for covered skin. Always apply sunscreen to exposed areas like the face, neck, and feet.
Can I put this in the tumble dryer?
No, you should never tumble dry the suit. Heat can damage the protective coating and the nylon material.
Is this suitable for both saltwater and chlorine?
Yes, it is designed for both environments, but be sure to rinse it well with fresh cold water after every use.
What does PFC-free mean?
It means the garment was manufactured without the use of perfluorinated compounds, which are often linked to environmental concerns.
How do I choose the right size for my child?
This specific model is sized for 3-year-olds; ensure the fit is snug but allows for full range of motion for comfortable swimming.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are thoroughly rinsing the suit to remove all salt or chlorine residue, which can cause stiffness.
Print appears faded
Avoid machine washing and ensure the suit is dried in a shaded area, as direct UV exposure while drying can accelerate print fading.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the suit is made of high-performance nylon, proper care is essential to maintain its UPF rating. You should only hand wash the garment in cold water. Avoid using harsh detergents, fabric softeners, or bleach, as these can break down the protective fibers of the fabric. Lay the suit flat to air dry away from direct sunlight to preserve the vibrant reef time print and ensure the fabric does not lose its shape. It is compatible with all standard water play environments, including chlorinated pools and saltwater beaches.
