FAQs

What is UPF 40+ protection?

UPF 40+ stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor 40+, meaning the fabric blocks at least 97.5% of the sun's harmful UV rays when worn.

How does EnduraBrite fabric differ from standard swimwear fabric?

EnduraBrite fabric offers higher chlorine resistance, meaning it retains its color and shape for longer compared to standard fabrics when exposed to chlorinated pool water.

Is this swimsuit suitable for competitive swimming?

While designed for durability and comfort during water activities, it's primarily suited for recreational swimming, beach play, and general pool use rather than competitive racing.

Can I machine wash this swimsuit?

It is recommended to hand wash the swimsuit gently with mild detergent to preserve the fabric's integrity and color. Machine washing and high heat can damage the fibers.

What does CREORA® HighClo™ mean for the swimsuit?

CREORA® HighClo™ technology ensures the swimsuit maintains its shape and fit over time, even with frequent use in chlorinated water, resisting stretching and degradation.

How do I know if I've chosen the correct size?

The swimsuit should fit snugly against the body without causing discomfort or restricting movement. Refer to the Speedo sizing guide for children's UK sizes and compare with your child's measurements.

What is the main advantage of the long sleeves?

The long sleeves provide extra coverage and UPF 40+ sun protection for the arms, reducing the need for sunscreen on those areas during prolonged sun exposure.

Troubleshooting

Color fading or loss of stretch

Ensure the suit is rinsed thoroughly with cold, fresh water after every use and hand-washed with mild detergent. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.

Zipper is difficult to use

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently glide the zipper up and down. If needed, apply a tiny amount of petroleum jelly or wax to the zipper teeth (ensure it doesn't stain the fabric).

Sizing feels off

Refer to the brand's sizing chart for accurate measurements. Ensure the suit fits snugly but comfortably without restricting movement. A slightly snug fit is expected for performance swimwear.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This swimsuit requires no setup upon arrival; it is ready to wear. It is compatible with all standard swimming environments, including chlorinated pools and saltwater. To maintain the quality and longevity of the swimsuit:

  1. Rinse Immediately: After each use, rinse the swimsuit thoroughly in cold, fresh water to remove chlorine, salt, and sunscreen residues.
  2. Hand Wash: Wash gently by hand with a mild detergent. Avoid using harsh chemicals, bleach, or fabric softeners.
  3. Do Not Tumble Dry: Lay the swimsuit flat to dry in the shade. Avoid direct sunlight, which can fade colors.
  4. Avoid Wringing: Gently squeeze out excess water without wringing or twisting the fabric.
  5. Store Properly: Store in a cool, dry place once fully dry.
