FAQs
Can I use this suit in a heated pool?
Yes, but it is not recommended for use in pools heated above 32C to prevent the risk of your baby overheating.
Is this suit machine washable?
We recommend hand-washing to ensure the delicate fleece lining maintains its insulating properties and softness.
Does the suit provide UV protection?
While the suit provides physical coverage, please check the specific product label for official UPF ratings if intended for prolonged sun exposure.
What should I wear under the suit?
For swimming, most babies wear the suit on its own. For dry-land use, a light cotton vest underneath is sufficient.
How do I choose the right size?
The suit is designed to be a close, snug fit. Choose based on your baby's current age bracket, but consider sizing up if your baby is particularly active or tall.
Can this be used in the sea?
Yes, it is suitable for sea use; however, ensure you rinse it thoroughly with fresh water afterward to remove salt deposits.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty zipping up when wet
Gently pull the edges of the fabric together to relieve tension on the zipper track before sliding the fastener up.
Suit feels heavy after use
The fleece material is designed to absorb a small amount of water to insulate; simply wring the suit out gently and hang to air dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the fleece lining, always rinse the suit in cool, fresh water immediately after use to remove chlorine or salt. Hand-wash with mild detergent when necessary and allow the garment to air dry flat away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Do not iron or tumble dry, as high heat can damage the elastic properties and the integrity of the fleece. Always ensure the zipper is fully closed before use to prevent any snagging on pool equipment.
