FOUR MUST-HAVES FOR BOYS' SWIMSUITS
Your child is sure to find his dream model in the variety of boys' swim shorts. Pay attention to the following details the next time you buy them, and the swim shorts will become your child's new favorite piece:
- To ensure that your little one feels comfortable in his new summer must-have, the right material is essential. Tight-fitting boys' swim trunks are usually made of polyamide with a touch of elastane, while for loose swim shorts, polyester is the best choice. Both synthetic fibers dry quickly and hardly absorb any water. We do not recommend models made of natural fibers such as cotton or linen, as these only look good on land.
- After swimming, many people leave their swimwear on, but this is not actually very healthy. Because the clothes dry on the skin, the pelvic area cools down quickly - cystitis is inevitable! It is therefore best to choose boys' swimwear with a water-repellent coating.
- Prints, prints and more prints: With boys' swim shorts, your little one can finally dare to do something! Hardly any other item of clothing is enhanced as well with bright colors and patterns as boys' swim shorts. Whether you want a sea look or decorated with your little one's favorite animals - add an exciting accent to your kids' summer outfit with the modern designs.
- Even among the youngest children, the issue of sustainability is playing an increasingly important role. Some fashion brands We therefore offer absolutely casual models made from recycled polyester that is fished out of the oceans. This way, your little one will not only look incredibly cool, but will also do something good for Mother Nature.
HOW TO CARE FOR AND CLEAN BOYS' SWIM SUITS
To ensure that your kids can enjoy their swimwear for a long time, you should follow these care tips:
- First, read the manufacturer's care instructions, which are sewn into the swimming trunks. This will tell you whether you can wash them in the washing machine. If so, you can wash the swimming trunks every few weeks as a delicate wash in the washing machine at 30° C.
- If the boys' swimming trunks cannot be put in the washing machine, you can clean them by hand with a mild detergent and rinse them thoroughly with clean water.
- Basically, swimming trunks should always be rinsed with cold water after swimming to remove chlorine and salt water as well as sand, dirt and sunscreen residue from the fibers.
- And what's the best way to get the excess water out of your swimwear? Since wringing damages the material of the swimwear, you can simply squeeze it out with a towel.
- Before you hang the swimwear back in the wardrobe, it should be completely dry. It's best to leave it hanging on a line and make sure it's not exposed to the sun, as UV light can bleach the beautiful colors. And the tumble dryer is also a no-no for boys' swim trunks!
