Full details
Designed for adult female swimmers, this Speedo Colourblock Splice Muscleback swimsuit offers exceptional durability and comfort for regular pool use. Its key benefit is the high chlorine resistance and shape retention provided by Enduraflex and CREORA® HighClo™ technologies, ensuring it lasts longer.

FAQs
What does CREORA® HighClo™ technology do?
CREORA® HighClo™ technology allows the fabric to retain its shape and elasticity for longer, even after repeated exposure to chlorine. This means your swimsuit will fit like new for more swimming sessions.
Is this swimsuit suitable for open water swimming?
This swimsuit is engineered for pool swimming. While durable, prolonged exposure to natural elements and varying water conditions in open water may affect its longevity compared to pool use.
How do I know if I have the right size?
The swimsuit is sized according to UK dress sizes. We recommend checking the Speedo size guide for precise measurements to ensure the best fit. A snug fit is generally preferred for performance swimwear.
What does OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified mean?
This certification means that every component of the textile has been tested for harmful substances and is therefore harmless for human health. It assures you that the fabric is safe for your skin.
Can I machine wash this swimsuit?
It is strongly recommended to hand wash the swimsuit to preserve the fabric's integrity and elasticity. Machine washing, even on a delicate cycle, can be too harsh.
How much of the swimsuit is made from recycled materials?
The swimsuit is made from 80% recycled nylon and 20% elastane, with at least 50% of the polyamide content being recycled.
Troubleshooting
Swimsuit feels looser than before
Ensure you are rinsing thoroughly after each swim to remove chlorine buildup. Follow the hand wash and dry flat instructions carefully. If the issue persists, the fabric's elasticity may have naturally decreased with extensive use.
Fading colour
Rinse immediately after swimming and dry away from direct sunlight. While the fabric is chlorine resistant, prolonged exposure to UV rays can still cause fading over time.
Skin irritation
Ensure the swimsuit is rinsed thoroughly after swimming and washed according to care instructions. The OEKO-TEX® certification indicates the fabric itself is free from harmful substances, so irritation is likely due to residual chlorine or detergent.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This is a ready-to-wear swimsuit. Ensure you have selected the correct UK dress size.
Compatibility:
- Best Use: Regular pool swimming, training sessions, and fitness swimming.
- Not Recommended For: Prolonged exposure to high levels of salt water or harsh chemicals found in some hot tubs, as this may degrade the fabric faster than chlorine.
Care Instructions:
To maximize the lifespan of your Speedo swimsuit:
- Rinse Immediately: After each use, rinse thoroughly with cold, fresh water to remove chlorine and salt.
- Hand Wash: Gently hand wash using a mild detergent (like those specifically for swimwear or delicates).
- Do Not Wring: Avoid wringing out the fabric, as this can damage the fibres and stretch.
- Dry Flat: Lay the swimsuit flat to dry away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Direct heat can degrade the elasticity.
- Do Not Tumble Dry: Never use a tumble dryer.
- Do Not Iron: Ironing can damage the fabric.
