Care instructions – ION Surfkini

Washing: Rinse the bikini in cold, clean water after each use, especially after wearing it in salt water or chlorinated water. Machine wash at max. 30 °C on a gentle cycle without fabric softener, or hand wash with mild soap. Avoid bleach and ironing.

Drying: Air-dry the bikini flat or hanging in the shade. Avoid tumble dryers, direct sunlight, and heat sources such as radiators, as heat can damage the elastane fibers and cause the fabric to lose its shape.
