Mountain Warehouse Active Short Swimsuit Bottoms - Black - Size 16

These bottoms are designed for active water sports and general wear. While they offer freedom of movement, they may not provide the specific hydrodynamic features required for competitive racing compared to specialized racing suits.

Refer to the product's size chart and take accurate measurements. The bottoms should fit snugly without digging in or feeling too loose, allowing for comfortable movement.

Yes, the UPF 50+ rating provides excellent sun protection for the covered areas, making them suitable for sunbathing.

UPF 50+ protection means the fabric blocks over 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays, significantly reducing the risk of sunburn and long-term skin damage during outdoor activities.

This feature means the fabric is treated to resist the damaging effects of chlorine and salt, which can otherwise degrade swimwear material, cause fading, and reduce elasticity over time. This ensures the swimsuit lasts longer with frequent use in pools or the sea.

They are ideal for water sports such as surfing, paddleboarding, kayaking, beach volleyball, as well as for general swimming, snorkeling, and beach or poolside activities where comfort and sun protection are desired.

Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the size guide. The stretchy fabric should offer comfort, but if it feels overly constrictive, a larger size may be needed.

While designed to be chlorine and saltwater resistant, always rinse thoroughly with cold, fresh water immediately after each use to remove residual chemicals or salt.

Follow the recommended care instructions carefully, particularly regarding washing temperature and drying methods. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, which can damage the fabric's elasticity.
