Did you get a swimshort from GoedkopeZwembroeken.nl? Great! Then, of course, you want it to last as long as possible. No fading, no wear, no strange marks. The good news: with a few simple care tips, you can keep your swimshort in top condition - whether it's a snug swim boxer, sporty swim brief or relaxed swimshort.
Always rinse your swimshort after use
After a day of swimming, it's a good idea to rinse your swimshort immediately with lukewarm water. A quick rinse under the shower without shampoo or soap is perfect. Why? This prevents chlorine, salt or sand from soaking into the fabric and damaging your swimshort.
How to wash your swimshort properly
Hand washing is the best choice. No time or inclination? Then wash it at max. 30 degrees in the washing machine, preferably in a laundry bag and inside out. Use liquid detergent for delicates - it's gentler on the fabric. Fabric softener? Don't use it. It weakens the fibers and causes the swimshort to wear out faster.
Drying your swimshort? Not in the sun or dryer!
Never put your swimshort in the dryer. The heat makes the fabric brittle and causes the elastic to lose its strength. It's better to let your swimshort dry flat or hanging - out of the sun and certainly not on a radiator. Simply leave it in the shade so it can drip dry slowly.
Be careful with sunscreen
Sunscreen on your skin = great. Sunscreen on your swimshort = less ideal. The ingredients can cause the fabric to fade. So apply it thoroughly at least 30 minutes before putting on your swimshort. This gives the cream time to absorb, keeping your swimshort looking good.
Storing it? Only when it's REALLY dry
Never put a damp swimshort in your bag or closet. That's an invitation for bacteria and mold - and they won't do your swimshort any favors. Let it dry thoroughly before putting it away.
Bonus tips for a long swimshort lifespan:
- Don't swim in natural water wearing white or light-colored swimshorts - they can fade quickly.
- Don't use a plastic, airtight bag for wet swimshorts. Use a breathable fabric bag instead.
- Be careful with rough pool edges or sharp attractions - they can damage your swimshort.
- Avoid waterslides. Friction can cause scorch marks and pilling.
- Alternate between swimshorts if you sweat a lot - perspiration can damage the fabric.
