Enjoy your swimwear for as long as possible. Proper care ensures longevity, colour vibrancy, and fabric integrity. Follow these simple guidelines to keep your swimwear looking and feeling its best.
1. Rinse Immediately After Use
After swimming, rinse your swimwear in cold, fresh water to remove chlorine, salt, and other chemicals that can damage the fabric. Preferably, rinse before you leave the pool or beach.
2. Hand Wash with Mild Detergent
Use a gentle detergent and lukewarm water to hand wash your swimwear. Avoid harsh detergents, bleach, and fabric softeners, as they can break down fibres and fade colours.
3. Avoid Excessive Soaking
Do not soak swimwear for extended periods, as this can weaken the elasticity of the fabric.
4. Dry Flat in the Shade
Lay your swimwear flat to dry in a shaded area. Direct sunlight can cause fading, while tumble drying can damage the fabric and elastic.
5. Do Not Wring or Twist
Gently squeeze out excess water instead of wringing or twisting, which can misshape the garment.
6. Rotate Your Swimwear
If you swim frequently, alternate between multiple swimsuits to allow each piece adequate time to recover its shape.
7. Avoid Rough Surfaces
Sitting on rough surfaces, such as pool edges or decks, can cause pilling. Always sit on a towel to protect the fabric. This is especially important for printed swimwear, which may be more prone to pilling.
8. Store Properly
Ensure your swimwear is completely dry before storing it. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
9. Be Mindful of Chemicals and Lotions
Some sunscreens, tanning oils, deodorants, makeup, and perfumes can stain or degrade swimwear fabric. Apply them carefully and allow them to dry before putting on your swimwear.
10. Heated Pools and Chlorine Exposure
Chlorine and heated pools can accelerate fabric wear, particularly affecting the rubber and elastic components. If you frequently swim in chlorinated pools, consider choosing chlorine-resistant swimwear to extend the garment’s lifespan. Over time, exposure to chlorine may still cause some fading and loss of elasticity.
By following these care tips, you’ll extend the life of your swimwear and keep it looking fresh and stylish. Enjoy the water with confidence!
