To extend the life of your Snorkelbear swim, we recommend the following:
- Avoid rough surfaces like rocks and pool edges (particularly for more delicate fabrics)
- rinse in fresh water immediately after use
- Hand-wash using a gentle soap and dry out of the sun; OR (as we like to do)
- wash in the shower after wear using your body soap or shampoo – rinse thoroughly and hang to dry in the shower
- do not line dry for long periods of time
- avoid drying in full sun
- do not machine wash, tumble dry, bleach or iron
If you absolutely have to machine wash, use a delicate cycle and a lingerie garment bag. We like the Guppyfriend, which catches microfibres and saves them from the ocean. You can purchase them
here.
