Choosing the Right Swimsuit for Women: Durability and Comfort matter

 

When it comes to choosing the perfect swimsuit for women, finding one that balances style, comfort and durability is essential. At Jaze Swim, we believe that a well-crafted swimsuit not only looks good but also performs well and stands the test of time. Here's a guide on how to choose the best swimsuit with a focus on durability, fabric quality and fit.

 

Why Durability Should Be a Priority

Swimsuits are subjected to harsh conditions, such as chlorine, saltwater and UV rays, which can wear down poor-quality materials quickly. Choosing a durable swimsuit ensures it lasts longer and retains its shape, color and performance. Look for swimwear designed to withstand frequent use, especially if you're a regular swimmer or spend a lot of time at the beach.

 

Best Fabrics for Durability

  • Polyester: This fabric is renowned for its durability and chlorine resistance. Unlike other materials, polyester holds its shape and color even after many swims. It’s a go-to choice for competitive swimmers and those who use pools regularly.
  • Nylon/Spandex Blend: This blend offers excellent flexibility and comfort but may not be as chlorine-resistant as polyester. If you're looking for a balance between stretch and durability, opt for swimsuits that combine both fabrics with higher polyester content.
  • X-Play: Jaze Swimwear uses a combination of sustainable materials in its swimsuits. Specifically, the fabric consists of 78% recycled polyester (regenerated from PET plastic bottles) and 22% XLANCE® elastomer, which provides durability and elasticity. This fabric blend, called X-PLAY, is designed to be both comfortable and high-performance, ideal for use in chlorinated water and active sportswear. It offers features such as resistance to chlorine, UV protection, and resistance to sun creams and oils, making it durable for long-term use
  • Eco-Friendly Materials: Sustainability is important and many swimwear brands, including Jaze Swim, are offering eco-friendly options made from recycled materials. These are not only durable but also help reduce environmental impact, making them a win-win for conscious consumers.

Chlorine and UV Resistance

Regular exposure to chlorine and sunlight can cause swimsuits to fade, lose elasticity, and weaken over time. Swimsuits made from chlorine-resistant fabric, such as polyester, maintain their structural integrity longer. In addition, UV protection is crucial to prevent color fading and fabric breakdown, especially if you swim outdoors.

Tip: Rinsing your swimsuit with fresh water after each swim helps prolong its lifespan by removing chlorine, salt and other harsh elements.

 

Comfort and Fit for Performance

While durability is crucial, comfort and fit are equally important. A high-quality swimsuit should provide a snug yet comfortable fit that doesn't restrict movement. Features like flatlock stitching, adjustable straps and seamless construction reduce chafing and ensure you can move freely in the water.

  • Snug Fit: A swimsuit that fits well should hug the body without being too tight. This ensures minimal drag in the water and better performance during swimming.
  • Straps and Support: Adjustable straps are key for finding the perfect fit, especially due to the different body proportions. This ensures the swimsuit stays in place even during rigorous swimming sessions.
