The Ultimate Guide: How Often Should You Wash Your Swimsuit?

Ideal Swimwear Washing Frequency

To maintain fabric integrity and longevity, swimsuits should be rinsed after every use (especially after exposure to chlorine, saltwater, or hot springs) and machine-washed every 3-5 wears. Overwashing can damage elasticity, while infrequent cleaning leads to odor and fabric degradation.

Optimal Swimwear Washing Frequency

For maximum longevity, rinse swimsuits immediately after each use (especially after chlorine/saltwater exposure) and perform a full wash every 3-5 wears. Over-washing degrades elasticity, while insufficient cleaning causes bacterial growth and fabric breakdown.

Why Dongguan LanTeng Sports Products Co., Ltd. Ensures Longer-Lasting Swimwear?

LanTeng’s swimwear excels in durability due to advanced fabric engineering and strict quality control:

1. Superior Elasticity & Recovery

   • Uses high-grade nylon-spandex (80/20 or 78/22 blends) with >85% elastic recovery rate, preventing sagging even after repeated wear.

   • Low shrinkage (<5%) – Retains shape after washing.

2. Exceptional Colorfastness

   • Chlorine resistance (ISO 105-E03 standard) – Withstands 100+ hours of chlorinated water exposure without fading.

   • Rubbing & perspiration colorfastness (4-5级) – Prevents dye transfer to skin or towels.

   • UV resistance (ISO 105-B02) – Colors stay vibrant even under prolonged sunlight.

3. Reinforced Stitching & Fabric Technology

   • Flatlock seams reduce chafing and extend garment life.

   • PBT (polybutylene terephthalate) yarn for chlorine-proof durability.

Practical Care Tips for Buyers & Consumers

✅ Hand Wash Preferred – Use cold water & mild detergent; avoid bleach.
✅ Avoid Wringing – Gently press out water to prevent fiber damage.
✅ Dry Flat in Shade – Direct sunlight weakens spandex.
✅ Rotate Swimsuits – Let each suit rest 24+ hours to regain elasticity.
