Swimwear has to endure a lot of external stresses from sun, sand, salty baths and more. Here are a few of our best tips on how to make them last over the seasons.
1. Always check the care label
Always check the care label on your swim shorts to see if there are any specific washing instructions. Some materials may require special care, such as hand washing or a gentle cycle.
2. Rinse immediately after use
3. Wash in cool water
When it comes time to wash your swim shorts, use cool water and a mild detergent. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as they can damage the material and cause fading.
4. Use a gentle cycle
If your washing machine has a delicate or gentle cycle, use that to wash your swim shorts. This will help prevent any stretching, tearing, or snagging of the fabric.
5. Air dry
To dry your swim shorts, lay them flat or hang them up to air dry. Avoid using a dryer, as the heat can damage the material and cause shrinkage.
