Fabric and Care

A Love Letter about Wear & Care

Swimwear is meant to be enjoyed. Sun, salt, chlorine, sunscreen, and time will naturally leave their mark. Normal wear, gradual stretching, fading, snagging, or damage from improper care aren't considered defects — they're simply signs of a well lived life. There will be stories…

After each use, hand wash your garments in mild soap (gentle, non-bleach options without harsh ingredients like enzymes or brighteners), rinse well and hang to dry in the shade.

Do not leave it rolled up wet.
Do not soak.
Do not use bleach.
Do not iron.
Do not dry clean.
Avoid harsh, abrasive surfaces.

Swimming pools and hot tubs contain chlorine which may damage your garments.

Some suntan oils, sun creams, and body products (including mineral sunscreens and fake tans) may cause discoloration if they come in contact with your garments.

Some products may bleed when folded on themselves and left wet for long periods of time.

Coloured fabrics tend to fade if exposed to direct sunlight for long periods of time.

Please refer to specific care labels attached to each product.

 

Caring for Your Specialty & Foil Swimwear

Our foil, metallic and sparkly swimsuits are designed to make a statement—whether you’re poolside, at the beach, or soaking up the sun. These eye-catching pieces are crafted from specialty fabrics that require a little extra love to keep them looking their best.

Our foil fabrics undergo wash and abrasion testing before production to ensure they hold up to real wear. That said, these are fashion-forward pieces, not your everyday lap-swim suit. Durability can vary slightly by style, but in general:

What to avoid:

  • Hot tubs, spas, and natural hot springs – The combination of heat and chemicals will damage specialty fabrics quickly.

  • Heavily chlorinated pools – Chlorine levels vary, and high concentrations can affect foil finishes over time

  • Sun-drying without rinsing – Laying in the sun post-swim without rinsing can cause color to strip from the fabric.

Saltwater (ocean) is generally gentler than chlorine, but always rinse afterward. Freshwater (lakes) is fine too.

With proper care, you can expect your foil swimwear to last a full season of beach days and poolside moments.

If something doesn't feel right, call. Email. Ask us. We're always happy to take a look and help where we can.

We believe confidence should last — and so should the pieces that help to give you more.
