Liewood Dove swim vest - Polyester

No, the Liewood Dove Swim Vest is a swimming aid designed to help children build confidence in the water. It provides buoyancy but is not a life-saving device. Constant and attentive adult supervision is always required when children are in or around water.

The swim vest is available in three sizes based on weight: Size 1 (11-15 kg), Size 2 (15-19 kg), and Size 3 (19-30 kg). It is crucial that the vest fits snugly around your child's chest to ensure safe buoyancy. Refer to the product details for specific weight recommendations.

The vest is designed for use during water activities. While the neoprene is soft, it's recommended to allow your child breaks from wearing the vest, especially if they are not actively swimming, to ensure comfort and allow skin to breathe.

You should hand wash the vest with similar colors using a mild detergent. Make sure to close the zipper, Velcro, and buttons before washing. Rinse thoroughly and hang dry in the shade.

For safety and proper buoyancy, the vest must fit snugly. If it feels loose, double-check that you have selected the correct size according to your child's weight. Ensure the front zipper is fully closed and the leg strap is securely fastened and adjusted between the legs.

The vest features long sleeves, which provide a degree of sun protection. However, it is not rated for specific UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) and should be complemented with sunscreen and other sun protection measures for prolonged sun exposure.

Ensure the vest is the correct size for the child's weight. The vest needs to fit snugly for safety, but if it causes significant discomfort, consult the sizing guide and consider the next size up if within the weight range, ensuring the leg strap is properly adjusted.

Verify that the vest is the correct size and fits snugly. Ensure the zipper is fully closed and the leg strap is secured. This vest is a swimming aid, not a life-saving device; constant adult supervision is required.

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric taut on either side of the zipper as you close it. If it persists, check for debris or damage to the zipper teeth.

Ensure you have followed the care instructions: hand wash, hang dry, and do not use harsh chemicals or heat. Air drying in the shade usually prevents stiffness.
