FAQs
What is the primary material of this swimsuit?
The swimsuit is primarily made of 80% Polyamide and 20% Elastane. It also incorporates a minimum of 60% certified recycled nylon.
How should I wash this swimsuit?
It is recommended to machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colours using a mild detergent. Do not bleach and do not tumble dry.
What does the 'open back' detail mean?
The open back means the back of the swimsuit has a cutout or is significantly exposed, offering a stylish design feature.
Is this swimsuit suitable for swimming laps?
While comfortable for general swimming, the high neck and open back design are primarily focused on style rather than the high-performance support needed for competitive lap swimming.
What is the fit like? I usually wear a UK size 6.
The model wears a UK size 8/S. For a UK size 6, you might consider the corresponding size. It's advisable to check the specific measurements if available or consider sizing up if you prefer a more relaxed fit.
Can I tumble dry this swimsuit?
No, you should not tumble dry this swimsuit. Lay it flat to dry away from direct sunlight to maintain its shape and material integrity.
Does the recycled nylon affect the feel of the swimsuit?
The blend of materials is designed for comfort and durability. While made with recycled nylon, the overall feel should remain smooth and flexible, similar to traditional swimwear.
Troubleshooting
Swimsuit feels tight or restrictive
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try gently stretching the fabric while damp or allow it to fully relax after washing as per care instructions.
Colour fading after washing
Always wash with similar colours using a mild detergent. Avoid direct sunlight when drying; lay flat in the shade.
Elasticity seems reduced
Avoid harsh chemicals, high temperatures, and tumble drying, as these can degrade the elastane over time. Follow the care instructions precisely.
