Whether we’re basking on the beach, or training for a triathlon at a local pool, between the swimming, sunscreen, and sweat, our swimwear really takes a beating. After all the time and energy you’ve spent finding your perfect swimsuit, you should know how to follow the right laundering rules that will keep it looking great season to season.

Here are our guidelines for the best swimwear care!

1. As soon as you can, rinse your swimming suit in cool water. This will remove the bulk of the damaging particles until you’ve got the time to wash it properly. Chlorine, salt, sand, dirt, suntan lotion, and sunscreen are all very hard on your swimsuit and the longer they are allowed to stay in the fabric, the more damage they’ll do.
2. Never put a dirty suit in a plastic bag. This is a breeding ground for odor-causing bacteria and will make your swimsuit break down more quickly.
3. Wash your swimming suit every time you wear it.
4. Always use a gentle, natural swimsuit cleaner. Regular detergents are often too harsh for delicate fabrics.
5. Never put a swimming suit in the washing machine or dryer. Always hand wash and air dry your swimming suits.
6. Treat stains as quickly as possible with Stain Remover Spray.
7. Avoid wearing the same swimming suit more than once in 24 hours. This gives the fabric time to return to its normal shape and reduces the chances of warping and stretching.
8. Avoid sitting on concrete or pavement. The rough surface will snag your suit.
