Wash frequency affects your swim trunks life
How often you wash your swim trunks will play a big part in how long they will stay fresh. Even if washing on a mild program, each wash will wear on the fabric and material. How often you wash your swim trunks also depends on how you’re storing them.
To extend the life of your swim trunks, we recommend that you wash them inside out. This will help preserve the color and material. If you’re washing them with other clothes, make sure to use a mild detergent and avoid using fabric softener as this can damage the material.
Also, make sure to let your swim trunks air dry. Avoid putting them in the dryer as the heat can shrink or damage the material.
If you follow these simple tips, you can enjoy your swim trunks for many summers to come!
