FAQs
What does 'compressive fit' mean for this swimsuit?
A compressive fit means the fabric is designed to be very snug against your body, offering support to your muscles and potentially reducing drag by creating a smoother surface. The Adizero XX has a *very* compressive fit.
Is this swimsuit suitable for training or just racing?
This suit is specifically engineered for high-performance racing due to its advanced fabric, compressive fit, and drag-reducing features. While it can be worn for training, its longevity may be best preserved by limiting its use to competition.
How do I know if this swimsuit is FINA approved?
The product description states 'FINA approved 2020', meaning it meets the standards set by the Fédération Internationale de Natation for competitive swimwear during that approval period.
Can I wear this swimsuit if I'm not a competitive swimmer?
While the suit is designed for competitive performance, anyone seeking a highly supportive and low-drag swimsuit may find it beneficial. However, be aware of the very compressive nature.
What is the purpose of the strategically placed tape?
The strategically placed core-positioning tape is designed to help swimmers maintain a more streamlined and efficient body position in the water, aiding in propulsion and stability.
How should I wash this swimsuit?
Rinse immediately in cold water after each use. Hand wash gently with mild soap if needed, and lay flat to dry away from heat and direct sunlight. Do not use bleach, detergents, or fabric softeners.
Troubleshooting
Swimsuit feels too tight or restrictive
Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the adidas sizing chart. The Adizero line features a very compressive fit; consider trying a size up if you prefer less compression, though this may impact performance.
Gripper tape is uncomfortable or causing irritation
Ensure the suit is pulled up fully so the gripper tape is lying flat against the skin. If irritation persists, this suit may not be the best fit for your body shape.
Fabric losing its stretch or shape after a few uses
Follow the care instructions meticulously. Avoid exposing the suit to high heat, harsh chemicals, or prolonged direct sunlight, as these can degrade the elastane fibers.
