What is Extra Life Lycra? What ExtraLife Lycra Swimwear Do We Sell?Xtra Life Lycra delivers the properties of Lycra, such as the soft feeling and beautiful fit but also gives swimwear a longer life with less fading and without becoming as baggy. Xtra Life Lycra is resistant to chlorine and pool chemicals 5 - 10 times longer than regular Elastane. This makes Xtra Life Lycra an excellent choice as fitness or training swimwear for male and females. But choose a swimsuit with a high Polyester content and less Lycra, for longer life. We sell Xtra Life Lycra swimwear in both www.acquawear.com (Korean Swimwear and Kneesuits) and www.curvybathers.com (Kneesuits) shops. Our Korean made Kneesuits Jkuss and Tornado are extremely popular, because of the outstanding prints, soft and body hugging fabrics and styles with Lycra content 20%, see individual listings.

What is Chlorine Proof Swimwear? Does Acquawear Sell Chlorine Proof Swimwear?100% Polyester and PBT swimwear fabrics are by far the most durable and long lasting. Although not as comfortable against the skin as Lycra based fabrics, Polyester/PBT blends are without a doubt the best training swimwear for men and women, due to their incredibly long lifespan. Chlorine proof swimwear has less stretch and thus provides a tighter fit and some people, maybe not as used to regular swim training, might find it constricting and need some time to get used to. The fabrics are less stretchy than Lycra so make sure that you check the size and measurements charts and read the advice of how the suits fit given by the seller, as they most likely have feedback not only from the manufacturer, but also from the customers. Swimsuits made of 100% polyester should retain their colour for at least a year of regular use, but most last much longer and are called chlorine proof for this reason. Chlorine resistant (proof) swimsuits also keep their shape because polyester isn't destroyed by chlorine like nylon or Spandex. Most of the top swimwear brands feature a range of durable PBT or 100% Polyester swimwear, and some brands manufacture exclusively their colourful swimsuits from durable fabrics. All our Delfina custom printed swimwear (except Kneesuits) for women or guys and for clubs are made out of chlorine proof fabrics and are the best choice for maximum swimsuit life and value for money. We stock also Korean brands in small sizes on our Acquawear website (Jkuss, Hoog and TSNine) chlorine proof swimsuits, just look for "T" in the product code and description (Tough, 100% Polyester).

What are Sustainable Eco Fabrics? Do we Use Sustainable Eco Fabrics in Our Swimwwear?Eco Fabrics - Carvico Xlance Eco For all our Delfina custom made swimwear (for Men and Women) SINCE 2021 (except Kneesuits), we use the Eco fabric Xlance, newly released by the Italian manufacturer Carvico.

How is Lycra Used in Swimwear?Lycra (also known as Spandex or Elastane) is always mixed with another fibre, usually polyamide (known also as nylon) to give it resilience and stretch. A Lycra swimsuit will generally last less than 2-3 months if exposed to chlorine regularly, it will fade and becomes baggy as the chlorine breaks down the fibres. Lycra swimwear is a choice for leisure swimmers and those who seldom visit the pool, swim in open water or take a dip on holiday. The material is soft against the skin, very comfortable and the prices are generally cheaper.
-
How should my swimwear fit?For the best fit, our swimwear made from Xlance Eco fabric should be snug, not baggy. This ensures you achieve the ideal shape in the water. The fabric has excellent stretch, so it will conform to your body comfortably. Make sure your suit is tight enough to provide support but not so tight that it restricts movement. A well-fitted suit enhances your swimming experience and performance.

Swimwear Care AdviceIt is so easy to come home tired from the pool, lake, river or beach and just stick the swimsuit in the washing machine, together with the towel, and dry it after on a hot radiator or even stick it in the dryer! But please, DON’T DO IT!!! If you want your suit to last, keep its colours and shape, just DON’T DO IT! Remember to never wash your swimming costume with detergents or in a washing machine. Just give it a good rinse straight after exiting the pool and hang the suit to dry away from a source of heat, and this will ensure the longest possible lifespan for your swimsuit, whatever fabric it's made from. We have a lot of personal experiences in using swimwear, and if you think your suit has become a bit grubby with body oils or the algae from river / lake, just hand-wash it a bit more thoroughly in a basin, with some Fairy Liquid or any dish soap and hang it on a banister. Swimsuits that haven't been properly cared for, as per the manufacturer's label / seller's instructions - swimwear that has been machined washed, put in spinners, centrifuges, dryers will void any warranty.
-
Do you sell my personal details? Do you share them with Third Party?The answer is a definite NO. We don't work with any other companies and our website doesn't let Google or any other companies advertise on it. The only personal data we use is for orders' delivery and replying to your questions. We email up to three newsletters / month, but if you don't want to receive them in the future, please unsubscribe at any time.
-
How can I pay for the items? Do I get a refund if I change my mind and return it?We take Credit and Debit Cards through our provider, Stripe. We sometimes add Paypal to the checkout, but as their fees are double and non refundable for returns we prefer the Credit Card payments which are as safe as Paypal. Yes, you can return for a product refund (postage will not be refunded) or exchange. We prefer if you can accept an exchange, especially if your return is after the 14 days. If you are in doubt of what size you need, please ask for more advice. If you change your mind, you have to let us know within 14 days.

How does the swimwear sizing compare to the ladies UK clothing sizing?The swimwear size on our website is the same as the Lingerie and Swimwear Sizing you use when buying a bra. We have measured some of the swimsuits (each individual style and size) and put them in a table for you to compare the measurements to the swimsuit you currently wear. Please see individual product for its own measurements chart. For all Waterpolo swimsuits, bear in mind that they are lined with the same fabric as the swimsuit, so that would make a difference to the fitting, so please allow an extra size up for the extra thickness. Manufacturer's chart with equivalent sizes also available for our eco friendly swim costumes.
-
Can I have a custom print made for myself and how long does it take for a custom print item to arrive? Can I customise the style?Any past print can be made for you, but the minimum order is five pieces, so if you get together with friends and family, you can place this very small order together. It takes approximately 3 weeks to receive your custom suits. You can see the styles available on the Clubs page, but it is not possible to change or customise any of the features, except add personalisation.

3. Fes la teva comandaEl disseny s'adaptarà ara a totes les peces que necessiteu com a part del vostre kit, però en el futur es poden afegir més peces. També has de decidir si cal personalitzar algun element i triar la ubicació, la mida i el tipus de lletra dels noms o inicials. Hi ha una tarifa addicional de 2,50 £/nom/peça. El disseny complet s'ha d'aprovar i els membres hauran d'escollir mides i estils. Els nostres kits són de la màxima qualitat i es fabriquen en una instal·lació moderna de la UE. Els teixits utilitzats per al vestit de bany són resistents al clor i totalment folrats amb folre blanc (folre negre disponible per un 10%) addicional. Els calçotets de bany de waterpolo masculí estan fets de teixit doble. En general, les talles disponibles van de la talla 20 a la 40, però alguns estils de dona estan disponibles fins a la talla 48 (roba del Regne Unit 24/26). Un cop feta la comanda, enviarem la nostra factura que s'ha de pagar estrictament abans de l'enviament de la comanda. Només triguen entre 3 i 4 setmanes a rebre la teva comanda (segons el tipus d'enviament necessari: Express o Economy). Les comandes repetides no es limiten a cap quantitat, però si la comanda és inferior a 5 peces, s'afegeix una tarifa administrativa de 20 £ a la factura final. La comanda mínima de xandalls és de 10 peces en tot moment, incloses les comandes de nou. Potser trobareu que serà més econòmic fer una comanda repetida més gran, ja que l'enviament pot ser força important. L'enviament és addicional i inclou una tarifa d'enviament especial addicional des d'Irlanda del Nord a la Gran Bretanya (si s'envia directament des de la nostra fàbrica de la UE, els clients haurien de pagar impostos duaners). Tingueu en compte que els preus que apareixen al lloc web en el moment de fer la comanda són els que pagareu per la vostra comanda. Tingueu en compte que els preus poden canviar d'una comanda a una altra; per exemple. un augment del preu de fàbrica del 18% a partir de l'1 d'agost.

2. Trieu les vostres plantilles/estilsTenim una àmplia gamma de plantilles que es poden personalitzar. Et recomanem que comencis amb un vestit de bany i un parell de jammers o calçotets i quan el disseny estigui aprovat el transferim a tots els articles que necessites com a part del teu equip. És la manera més fàcil i ràpida! Si sou molt especial el to de color, envieu-nos el codi Pantone o us enviarem la mostra de color de la tela. Els colors de la resolució de la pantalla són més clars que l'ombra de la tela, per la qual cosa no us recomanem que trieu els colors sense veure la mostra de color de la tela. Tan aviat com aprovis el disseny, pots començar a triar les peces del kit. Per experiència, trobem que els membres del club prefereixen triar quin tipus de vestit poden portar, ja que diferents vestits s'ajusten a diferents tipus de cos, de manera que com més opcions tinguin, més probabilitats tindran de demanar. No oblidis que a les plantilles de vestits de bany del club s'inclouen peces de vestits de bany professionals (vestits de bany homologats per la FINA), vestits de carreres que es poden personalitzar segons les necessitats del teu club. Els xandalls es poden demanar per separat, però tingueu en compte que la comanda mínima de xandalls és de 10 peces en tot moment, incloses les comandes de nou. Per tal de tallar, recomanem a tots els membres del club que comprovin les taules de talles i/o la taula de talles del vestit de bany (on s'inclou). Tenim alguns kits de mida per a formes antigues, però per a totes les formes incloses a la secció Plantilles, utilitzeu els gràfics que s'ofereixen, ja que el fabricant ja no ofereix kits de mida.

Reasons For Wearing a Swim Hat- To make you more streamlined when swimming, especially for competitive swimmers. A swimming cap should keep your hair out of your face when swimming and will reduce water drag. - To protect your hair from chlorine damage: Especially if you wet your hair before putting your cap on and go in the pool, the caps will prevent your hair from becoming saturated with the chlorinated water. - Hygiene: People who swim without a cap lose hair in the pool which in turn will clog up the filters. - Warmth: If you swim in open water a swimming hat will help to keep you warm in the cold water. You could also double up the caps.
-
Swim Caps MisconceptionsThey are not designed to keep your hair dry! If you read the instructions on our RAS swimming caps, they recommend you wet your hair before putting the cap on! Although some caps will do a good job keeping your hair dry, this is not their scope. If you want to keep your hair dry as much as possible, you can use a silicone cap which gives a tight fit and should keep most of the water out, or wear 2 caps.
