Slazenger Swimsuit - Black - 9-10

This specific swimsuit is sized for junior girls, typically within the 9-10 years age group, based on UK children's sizing. Please refer to a size chart for detailed measurements if unsure.

Yes, its classic design, streamlined fit, and durable LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ fabric make it suitable for both competitive training sessions and casual recreational swimming.

LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ fiber provides significantly enhanced resistance to chlorine, UV rays, and suntan lotions/oils. This helps the swimsuit maintain its shape, fit, and color up to 10 times longer than swimsuits made with standard elastane, offering excellent durability.

While the fabric provides a physical barrier, this swimsuit is not specifically rated for UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor). It is always recommended to use additional sun protection, such as sunscreen, especially during extended sun exposure.

To maximize its lifespan, always rinse the swimsuit in cool, clean water immediately after swimming. Machine wash it at 40°C (104°F) with a mild detergent on a gentle cycle. Air dry it flat in the shade. Avoid tumble drying, ironing, and harsh chemicals like bleach or fabric softener.

Yes, the swimsuit is made with 82% Recycled Nylon, contributing to a more sustainable product choice by utilizing recycled materials.

Ensure the swimsuit's size (e.g., 9-10 for this variant) corresponds accurately with the child's measurements. A swimsuit should be snug for performance but not restrictive. If discomfort persists, a different size might be needed.

While equipped with LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ for enhanced resistance, improper care can still accelerate wear. Always rinse thoroughly after use and strictly follow the washing instructions (40°C, mild detergent, air dry). High chemical concentrations in pools or prolonged exposure to strong sunlight during drying can contribute to degradation.

The thin straps are designed for freedom of movement. If they cause discomfort, re-check the sizing; a swimsuit that is too small can pull on the straps. Adjusting the swimsuit's position on the body might also alleviate pressure points.

This can occur with repeated washing and friction. To help minimize this, turn the swimsuit inside out before washing. Avoid scrubbing or applying direct friction to the logo area during cleaning or drying.
