If you are regularly swimming in chlorine Endurance + range is most suited as it’s 100% chlorine resistant.

For all other fabrics; when worn in chlorine it’s especially important to follow these steps and enjoy wearing your Speedo’s time and time again.

Always

  • Rinse with fresh, cold water after use or follow instructions on care label to prevent garment from becoming chlorine damaged over time.
  • Dry in the shade after rinsing & do not hang in direct sun light.
  • Occasionally hand-wash with mild soap – do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  • Apply sunscreen approximately 15 minutes before putting on your costume, as oil and/or lotion can deteriorate the fabric.

 

And remember to never

  • Sit on any abrasive surfaces that can snag the suit.
  • Leave swimwear rolled in a wet towel – use caution as your towel could be holding in the chlorinated water!
  • Leave hanging dripping wet, without first rinsing as above.
  • Use tumble dryer or heater.
  • Soak or bleach.
  • Or leave your swimwear in direct sunlight.
