Initial Use: Before your first wear, a quick rinse in cool, clear water is recommended.
Care Instructions:
- Always rinse the costume thoroughly with cool, fresh water immediately after each use, especially after exposure to chlorine or salt water.
- Hand wash with a mild detergent is highly recommended. Do not use bleach or harsh chemicals.
- Gently squeeze out excess water; do not wring the fabric.
- Lay flat or hang to dry in the shade. Avoid direct sunlight and high heat, as this can degrade the polyester fabric and elastic.
- Do not tumble dry or iron.
Storage: Ensure the costume is completely dry before storing it in a cool, dry place to prevent mildew and fabric damage.
Compatibility: This swim costume is designed for general swim activities, including pool swimming, beachwear, and relaxed water recreation. The polyester material offers good resistance to chlorine and salt water, making it suitable for both chlorinated pools and the ocean. However, prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals or intense athletic swimming might reduce its lifespan over time.
