Product Information
Full details
The Speedo Medley Logo Medalist Swimsuit is designed for adult female swimmers who engage in regular pool training and fitness sessions. Its primary benefit is the signature medalist back design, which maximizes shoulder movement and provides superior flexibility for every stroke. While it offers excellent durability and performance for daily use, swimmers should note that it is a specialized athletic suit rather than a decorative fashion piece, so care must be taken to rinse it thoroughly after exposure to pool chemicals.

FAQs
Is this swimsuit suitable for competitive swimming?
Yes, the design is excellent for training sessions and regular fitness swimming where shoulder flexibility is critical.
How do I determine the right size?
This model follows standard UK dress sizing; choose your current dress size for an athletic, snug fit.
Can I wash this in a washing machine?
It is highly recommended to hand wash in cold water to preserve the fabric's integrity and elasticity.
Does the material provide UV protection?
While Speedo uses high-quality polyester, this suit is designed primarily for indoor or outdoor chlorine pool use rather than as a UPF-rated sun garment.
What does the medalist design actually do?
It positions straps to avoid the shoulder blades, allowing for maximum range of motion and comfort during repetitive strokes.
Troubleshooting
Suit feels too tight around the shoulders
Ensure the straps are sitting correctly in the center of the shoulder blades; the medalist cut may feel more structured than casual swimwear.
Fabric color fading after heavy use
Always rinse thoroughly after use and avoid high-temperature washing or tumble drying, which degrade technical fabrics.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your swimsuit, always rinse it with cool, fresh water immediately after each session in the pool to remove chlorine or saltwater. Avoid wringing out the suit, as this can damage the elasticity of the fabric; instead, gently press it between two towels. Do not store the wet suit inside a plastic bag for extended periods, as this can encourage mold growth and fabric decay. When selecting your size, refer to standard UK dress sizing, ensuring a snug fit that stays secure without restricting your breathing or movement.
