Swimwear Care

Proper Care for Swimwear

Swimwear Do's

Before First Use Only: We recommend customers to soak swimwear in a mixture of vinegar and water for approx. 30 minutes. (1 tablespoon per 1 quart of water). This will slow down fading and keep bright colors vibrant longer.

• Rinse your swimsuit in cool water immediately after swimming in chlorinated water or salt water.
• Wash your swimwear separately until any excess dye washes out. Most swimsuit will bleed a little first few times that it is washed. This is normal, bleeding will stop.
• Hand wash in cool water. Use a mild liquid soap and roll swimsuit in a towel to get any excess water, then hang to dry completely 

  Swimwear Don'ts

  • Do not sit on the pool edge or boat without using a towel. Abrasiveness causes snagged bottoms.
  • Do not rub the front of your suit along the inner edge of the pool. The Lycra filaments will snag causing them to break. Your suit will have that "pilled" look.
  • Do not machine wash or dry. Do not bleach your swimsuit, iron it, wash it with whites or put in the dryer. Excessive dryer heat will destroy your swimsuit. Washing machines and detergents are too harsh and will lead to premature swimsuit breakdown. Use extra caution with holographic or metallic fabrics, they are very delicate. In accordance with Health Department Regulations, ABSOLUTELY NO SWIMWEAR will be returned or exchanged once worn, soiled or washed. In the unlikely event of a manufacturers defect, each case will be handled on an individual basis, working closely with manufacturer to rectify the problem.
