Fabric Care
General rule for all our Swimwear fabrics
Hand Wash
Rinse your swimsuit as soon as possible in cool tap water after each time you wear it. If you have time to allow the suit to soak in cool water for 30 minutes, that's even better for the fabric. The soak will remove most of the chemicals, salt, sand, and body oil that can damage the fabric.
​
Plain water does not remove all of the salt or chlorine. Refill the sink with cool water and add just a teaspoon or less of a gentle liquid laundry detergent or a more natural solution, vinegar. Turn your swimsuit inside out and submerge it in the solution. Swish for several minutes and then rinse well.
Remove the bathing suit from the water, and then gently squeeze the water out of the fabric—don’t wring it as it can damage the shape.
Lay Flat in Shade
Spread your suit flat to dry in a spot out of direct sunlight. The UV rays from the sun can both fade and break down the fibers in your suit.
Helpful Tips
Instead of taking off the bathing suit and soaking it in cold water, just wear the suit into your post-swim shower.
Distilled white vinegar can be used as an alternative substitute for detergent when washing, as it both deodorizes and reduces bacteria on the fabric.
When using a Hot Tub, rinse out your suit as quickly as possible. Hot tubs offer a double whammy of excessive chemicals and high heat that will fade and stretch a suit out very quickly.
DO NOT
Do not wring out, bleach, iron, tumble dry, or dry clean. Do not let dry in the sun, colours will fade.
