Product Information
Full details
The Mountain Warehouse Active Swimsuit Bottoms are ideal for women seeking comfortable, durable swimwear that offers sun protection and freedom of movement both in and out of the water. Made from stretchy, chlorine and saltwater-resistant fabric with UPF 50+ protection, these bottoms provide excellent coverage. A potential consideration is that they are designed for active use, so while versatile, they might offer a more athletic fit than a traditional bikini bottom.

FAQs
What is UPF 50+ protection?
UPF 50+ stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor 50+. It means the fabric blocks over 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays, offering excellent protection for your skin.
Are these suitable for competitive swimming?
While the stretchy fabric allows for freedom of movement, these bottoms are designed more for leisure and active use rather than high-performance competitive swimming, which may require specialized suits.
Can I wear these for activities other than swimming?
Yes, their comfortable and durable design makes them suitable for various activities both in and out of the water, such as beach volleyball, paddleboarding, or hiking in wet conditions.
How should I dry these swimsuit bottoms?
Always dry them flat in the shade. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can damage the fabric and reduce its stretchiness and UV protection.
Will the color bleed?
Proper care, including immediate rinsing in cold water after use and avoiding harsh detergents, helps prevent color bleeding. However, like most dyed fabrics, some minimal color loss can occur over extended use.
What is the main benefit of the chlorine and saltwater resistance?
This feature means the fabric is engineered to withstand the damaging effects of pool chemicals and salt, helping the swimsuit maintain its shape, color, and elasticity for longer, especially with frequent use.
Troubleshooting
Swimsuit feels too tight or restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Refer to the sizing guide. If the fit is still not right, consider the next size up for a looser feel, though this may impact performance.
Fading of color after multiple uses.
Rinse thoroughly in cold fresh water immediately after each use. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not in use, and always dry flat in the shade.
Fabric feels less stretchy over time.
Ensure proper care by hand washing with mild detergent and avoiding harsh chemicals, bleach, or tumble drying, which can degrade the fabric's elasticity.
