AQUARESIST technology
Products holding the AQUARESIST label are guaranteed to be resistant to chlorine. They will maintain their elasticity and are UV resistant. For these reasons they are recommended for regular or intensive pool use.
Material
Main fabric: 100% polyester. Our engineers developed a polyester-based fabric and replaced the elastane fibre with PBT fibre, which is stretchy enough to provide user comfort but, more importantly, is unaffected by chlorine. This PBT thread also has the advantage of quick drying. It only loses 3 to 4% resistance throughout its lifespan. Another plus: Even the brightest of colours will retain their colour fastness
Lining
This swimsuit is lined at the front with recycled material.
ECO-DESIGN:
The current version has less than 17% environmental impact on the finished product in comparison to the previous version’s finished product:
- the lining is made of 100% recycled polyester
- the previous version had a full lining and the new version has a lining only in the front part to allow faster drying and better comfort of the swimming costume
Why doesn’t my swimsuit have a hygienic sticker?
“As of 2022, all women’s swimwear designed at Decathlon are made without plastic stickers. If all the stickers were in a line, that would make 940km of plastic saved every year!
This meaningful decision is strongly based on protecting our planet and limiting the use of plastics.
Let’s make this responsibility a common commitment by making sure
to keep your underwear on when you go in the fitting room. "
