Is this rash vest suitable for cold water?
This rash vest is designed primarily for sun protection and offers minimal thermal insulation. It is not intended for keeping warm in cold water.
Can I wear this in a chlorinated pool?
Yes, the fabric is suitable for use in chlorinated pools, but it is recommended to rinse the vest with fresh water immediately after swimming to preserve the fabric and color.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the product's sizing chart. This vest is designed for a snug, performance fit, so consider sizing up if you prefer a looser feel.
What does 'recycled polyester' mean for this product?
It means the polyester material used in the vest is made from recycled plastic, which helps reduce waste and environmental impact.
How should I care for my rash vest to ensure its longevity?
Rinse in cool fresh water after each use, hand wash with mild soap in cold water, and dry flat in the shade. Avoid bleach, wringing, and direct heat.
Troubleshooting
Rash develops from wearing
Ensure the garment is clean and free of salt or chlorine residue. Try rinsing thoroughly after each use. If irritation persists, consider if the fabric texture is the cause and explore alternative styles.
Color fading
Rinse immediately after use and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not in use. Follow washing instructions carefully, using cold water and mild soap. Do not dry in direct sunlight.
Stretch fabric losing elasticity
Avoid excessive heat, such as hot dryers or direct sunlight during drying. Hand wash in cold water and dry flat. Do not use harsh detergents or bleach.
