Product Information

Full details

This Speedo Contour Eclipse Swimsuit is designed for adult female swimmers seeking enhanced comfort and support during pool activities. Its key benefit is the all-over body shaping combined with chlorine-resistant fabric for lasting wear. A potential consideration is that it offers medium bust support and is non-padded, which may not suit everyone's preference. Key features include a racerback design, fixed straps, and Lycra Xtra Life technology for durability.

FAQs

What does 'Shape Comprex' mean?

'Shape Comprex' refers to the integration of shapewear innovation within the swimsuit's design, providing all-over body shaping and support for a flattering fit.

How long does Lycra Xtra Life last?

Lycra Xtra Life is designed to last twice as long as standard swimwear fabric when exposed to pool chlorine, maintaining shape and fit.

Is this swimsuit suitable for competitive swimming?

While durable and supportive, it is designed with body shaping features and medium bust support, making it more suited for fitness and recreational swimming rather than high-level competitive racing.

What does OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification mean for this swimsuit?

This certification means that the swimsuit has been tested and verified to be free from harmful substances, ensuring it is safe for your skin.

Can I machine wash this swimsuit?

No, hand washing in cold water with mild detergent is recommended. Machine washing, bleaching, or tumble drying can damage the fabric and its shaping properties.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the brand's specific size guide, which usually correlates UK dress sizes with other measurements. It's important to get an accurate measurement of your bust, waist, and hips.

What is the benefit of using recycled polyamide?

Using recycled polyamide helps to conserve resources and reduce waste in manufacturing, making the swimsuit a more sustainable choice without compromising on quality or performance.

Troubleshooting

Swimsuit feels too tight or restrictive.

Ensure the straps are properly adjusted. If it remains too tight, consider if the size is correct or if the shaping feature is not suitable for your preference. Allow for a brief break-in period.

Swimsuit is stretching out or losing shape.

Ensure the swimsuit is rinsed thoroughly with cold, fresh water after each use and is hand-washed only. Avoid harsh detergents and direct sunlight when drying, as these can degrade the fabric.

Straps are digging into shoulders.

Adjust the straps to a more comfortable setting. If discomfort persists, the size or fit of the suit might not be optimal for your body shape.

Fabric color fading.

Rinse immediately after use to remove chlorine. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct light.
