FAQs

What makes the Ecolast+ fabric sustainable?

Ecolast+ fabric is made using REPREVE® yarn, which is derived from recycled plastic waste. This process helps to reduce the amount of plastic pollution and supports a more circular economy.

How does the Atomback design benefit my swimming?

The Atomback design features an open back and wider straps, which allows for a greater range of motion in the shoulders and upper back, contributing to a more efficient and comfortable swimming stroke.

Is this swimsuit suitable for competitive swimming?

The Zoggs Mettle Pink Atomback Swimsuit is rated at Zoggs Support Level 1, making it ideal for regular training, fitness swimming, and recreational use. For highly competitive swimming that requires maximum support, you might consider suits with a higher support rating.

Can I machine wash this swimsuit?

It is recommended to hand wash the swimsuit gently with a mild detergent. Machine washing, especially on a high heat or spin cycle, can damage the fabric and reduce its lifespan.

What does UPF 50+ mean?

UPF 50+ stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor 50+. It means the fabric blocks at least 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays, offering excellent protection for your skin during outdoor activities.

How do the slimming side panels work?

The side panels feature a contrast print design that creates a visual illusion, making the torso appear slimmer and more streamlined.

What is the warranty period for this swimsuit?

The swimsuit comes with a Lifetime Guarantee, indicating Zoggs' confidence in the durability and quality of the Ecolast+ fabric, particularly its chlorine resistance.

Troubleshooting

Swimsuit fading quickly

Ensure you rinse the swimsuit thoroughly with fresh water after every use to remove chlorine. Avoid leaving it wet in a bag for extended periods.

Loss of elasticity or shape

This swimsuit is designed for superior shape retention. If you notice a loss of elasticity, ensure you are following the hand-wash and flat-dry care instructions and avoiding harsh detergents or high heat.

Discomfort or chafing

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The medium leg height and front lining are designed for comfort, but a poor fit can lead to discomfort. Consult the size guide if unsure.

Reduced sun protection effectiveness

The UPF 50+ rating is inherent to the fabric. This rating will not diminish with proper care. If you suspect reduced effectiveness, ensure the suit is not damaged or overly worn.
