Question

i just bought a new speedo, because my old one faded. i'm going to the beach this weekend, and i have that speedo and a new nike swim suit. which would be better for the beach? would the saltwater harm the swim suit? what are the precautions i should take?

Answer 1

saltwater wont hurt either suit, wear whichever you want

Answer 2

LOL, saltwater is perfectly fine for them. some swimming races are held in saltwater at the beach

Answer 3

i would say you nike manly b/c your speedo will smell like salf for like a month or do. and somethings in the water might mess it up. b/c i had so swim a mile in the ocean b4 a swim meet and it messed up and jest looked really bad!

Answer 4

Make sure you soak your suit in cold water for at least 30 minutes, just like you would do if you swam laps in a pool. You need to dilute the salt water just like you would the chlorine. Then drip dry.

It won't make much of a difference which suit you use. Only if a suit is polyester and the other one is lycra.

Answer 5

Yes, saltwater won't do any more damage to a suit then chlorine will.  Just rinse it out well with a little woolite or something similar when you are finished for the day and it will be fine.
