Nike Spider Back Swimsuit - Black - Size: 8

NIKE HydraStrong fabric is a premium material known for its exceptional durability and resistance to chlorine. It helps the swimsuit maintain its shape, elasticity, and color over extended periods of frequent use in chlorinated water, making it ideal for regular swimmers.

To maximize the life of your swimsuit, hand wash it in cold water separately immediately after each use. Use non-chlorine bleach if necessary, and line dry it. Do not iron, dry clean, or store it while wet. Following these steps prevents fabric damage and maintains its performance.

The Spider Back design, with its double spaghetti straps, provides moderate support. It's engineered to keep the suit secure during swimming while allowing maximum freedom of movement, particularly around the shoulder blades, without being overly restrictive.

Yes, this swimsuit is well-suited for competitive training and practice. Its HydraStrong fabric ensures durability for frequent use, and the Spider Back design provides unrestricted movement crucial for various strokes and turns. While it's great for training, some elite competitors might opt for suits with even more compression or specialized racing features for race day.

'Cheeky Bottom Coverage' refers to a cut that provides less coverage across the rear compared to a traditional full-coverage swimsuit. It's a modern, athletic style that also contributes to a greater range of leg movement.

'High-leg Height' means the leg opening of the swimsuit sits higher on the hips, above the natural waistline. This design enhances the aesthetic by elongating the legs and, more importantly, allows for a wider, more natural range of leg movement in the water without restriction.

This swimsuit is listed in UK women's dress sizes. For the best fit, we recommend consulting Nike's official sizing chart and taking your current body measurements (bust, waist, hips). A properly sized swimsuit should feel snug but not uncomfortably tight, allowing for full movement without gapping or bagging.

The Spider Back design is engineered for movement. Ensure you have the correct size. If it still feels restrictive, double-check that the straps are not twisted or pulling incorrectly. The design should allow for full shoulder mobility.

Verify that you are strictly following the care instructions. The NIKE HydraStrong fabric is highly durable, but improper care (like machine washing, drying, or storing wet) can accelerate wear. Always rinse thoroughly after use and hand wash cold.

The swimsuit features flat lock seams specifically to prevent chafing. Ensure your swimsuit size is correct; a suit that is too small or too large can lead to rubbing. Also, make sure no part of the suit is bunched up or creased.

This swimsuit offers moderate support and is lined for a secure fit. If you experience shifting, confirm your size is appropriate. A swimsuit that is too large will not offer adequate support and security during movement. For very high-impact activities, you may need a suit with more specific high-support features.
