FAQs
What is the main advantage of the Endurance®+ fabric?
The Endurance®+ fabric is 100% chlorine-resistant, meaning it is engineered to last much longer than conventional swimwear fabrics when exposed to pool chemicals. It also offers quick-drying properties and maintains its shape.
Why do you recommend sizing up?
Speedo suits are noted to run smaller than many other brands. Sizing up ensures a more comfortable, less restrictive fit, especially considering the legsuit style which covers more of the body.
Is this legsuit suitable for competitive swimming?
While durable and comfortable, the Essential Endurance Legsuit is primarily designed for leisure swimming and fitness classes due to its coverage and fit. For competitive racing, Speedo offers specific performance suits.
How should I wash the legsuit?
The legsuit is machine washable at 40°C on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Always rinse in cold water immediately after use and drip dry in the shade.
What does '4-way stretch technology' mean for comfort?
4-way stretch technology allows the fabric to stretch in all directions, providing a softer feel against the skin and ensuring freedom of movement without feeling constricting.
Can I use this suit in a saltwater pool or the sea?
The Endurance®+ fabric is primarily designed for chlorine resistance. While it can be worn in saltwater, it's essential to rinse it thoroughly with fresh water immediately after use to prevent salt damage and wear.
What is the material composition of the legsuit?
The legsuit is composed of 53% Polyester and 47% PBT (Polybutylene Terephthalate), a blend optimized for durability and chlorine resistance.
Troubleshooting
Suit feels too tight or small
Speedo suits tend to run smaller. For a more comfortable fit, we recommend sizing up from your usual size.
Fabric losing elasticity or color fading
Ensure the suit is rinsed thoroughly after every swim to remove chlorine. Follow the washing instructions carefully, avoiding bleach and high heat drying.
Chafing or discomfort during swimming
Check that the sizing is correct (consider sizing up if it's too tight). Ensure the legsuit is properly rinsed and dried according to care instructions.
Snags or pulls in the fabric
Avoid contact with rough surfaces like pool edges or textured shower floors. If minor snags occur, carefully trim any loose threads without cutting into the fabric.
