FAQs
What material are the Zoggs Cottesloe Hip Racers made from?
They are made from Ecolast+™ fabric, which consists of 55% Recycled Polyester and 45% Polyester P.B.T.
Are these suitable for competitive swimming?
While designed for comfort and durability in fitness and leisure swimming, their 29cm leg length and regular fit make them a solid choice for training. For elite competition, swimmers may prefer suits with a more streamlined profile.
How do I know which size to order?
Refer to the size guide provided by Zoggs, using your waist measurement (UK sizes) to select the best fit. The product listed is for Waist Size 32.
Can I machine wash these swim trunks?
It is recommended to hand wash them gently with mild detergent. Avoid machine washing to preserve the fabric's integrity and shape retention.
What is the leg length of these swim shorts?
The leg length is 29cm.
Are these available in other colors?
Yes, besides black, they are also available in navy.
How does the Ecolast+™ fabric contribute to sustainability?
Ecolast+™ fabric utilizes REPREVE yarn, which is made from recycled plastic waste, making these swim trunks an environmentally conscious choice.
Troubleshooting
Swim trunks feel too tight or too loose
Adjust the internal drawstring to achieve a secure and comfortable fit. If the overall size is incorrect, consider exchanging for a different waist size.
Color fading after a few uses
Ensure you are rinsing the trunks with fresh water immediately after each swim and avoiding prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not in use. Follow the recommended washing instructions.
Material losing elasticity
This is unlikely due to the Ecolast+™ fabric's excellent shape retention. Ensure proper care, avoiding harsh chemicals and excessive heat, which can degrade elasticity.
