Caring for Your Swimwear and Activewear

At Zahara, we believe in the lasting quality and performance of our swimwear and activewear. To ensure that your items stay in top condition and provide you with the best experience, follow these easy care instructions:

For Swimwear:

Avoid Sun and Heat: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and high heat can cause color fading and material damage. Avoid leaving your swimwear in these conditions.

Gentle Hand Wash: To clean your swimwear, gently hand wash it in cold water using a mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly, especially if sunscreen was applied.

Drying the Right Way: Lay your swimwear flat to dry in a shaded area. Hanging by the straps can lead to stretching. Direct sunlight can fade colors, so avoid it during drying.

Remove Sand and Debris: After a beach day, make sure to shake off or gently brush away sand and debris. This keeps the fabric intact and ready for your next adventure.

Cold Water Only: Stick to cold water for washing. Warm or hot water can affect elasticity and shape.

No Dry Cleaning: Avoid dry cleaning, as the chemicals can harm the fabric's properties.

Store with Care: Keep your swimwear in a well-ventilated, dry place. Direct sunlight during storage can lead to fading and damage.

Zippers Need Love Too: Rinse swimwear with zippers thoroughly to remove saltwater and sand. This preserves the functionality and lifespan of the zippers.

For Activewear:

Mind Extreme Conditions: Just like swimwear, keep your activewear away from direct sunlight and excessive heat for prolonged time periods. These conditions can compromise the material and colors.

Delicate Wash: When it's time to clean your activewear, opt for a gentle wash in cold water using a mild detergent. Rinse well.

Drying Care: Lay your activewear flat to air dry. Avoid hanging by the straps to prevent stretching. Keep it away from direct sunlight during drying.

Post-Workout Cleanup: After outdoor activities, remove any dirt or particles. This prevents damage and ensures freshness.

Cold Water Wash Only: Stick to cold water for washing your activewear. Hot water and vigorous washing can lead to unwanted wear and tear.

No to Dry Cleaning: Just like with swimwear, never dry clean your activewear.

Smart Storage: Store your activewear in a dry, well-ventilated area. Prevent moisture buildup and color fading by avoiding direct sunlight.

Zipper Care: Activewear with zippers should be rinsed thoroughly after wear to remove saltwater and sand. This maintains zipper functionality.

By following these care instructions, you'll extend the life and quality of your swimwear and activewear from Zahara.

Enjoy your workouts and outdoor adventures with confidence!
