Womens Swimsuits That Are Easy to Put on
After a new sport swimsuit for your weekly cross-training session at the lido? Or perhaps you're training for your first triathlon and are looking for a sport swimsuit to slip under your wetsuit – or even to wear al fresco for wild swims in the sea?
Whether you're buying a sport swimsuit for the first time, or your current cozzy is down to its last threads and you're in need of an upgrade (pronto!), we've got you covered...
What to look for in a sport swimsuit
Like a good sports bra or well-fitting running shorts, the best women's swimsuits won't move or slip as you power through the water. Here's what else you should be looking for when choosing the best sport swimsuit for you:
- Support: For larger breasted swimmers, look for one-piece supportive swimming costumes that offer some sort of bust support in the form of padding or cups.
- UV protection: If you're planning on doing some of your training in your local lido or, if you're lucky enough, the sea, finding a sport swimsuit with UV protection is wise when it comes to protecting your skin from the sun's harmful rays.
- Fully lined: This simply means that every part of the swimsuit has an inner lining, which is designed to prevent the swimsuit from going see-through when wet.
- Chlorine-resistant: One of the reasons you might find yourself buying a new swimsuit every summer is that you're not investing in chlorine-resistant swimsuits. The chlorine in the pool damages the spandex found in most swimming costumes, causing them to not be as stretchy and the colours to yellow or fade. If you're planning on doing some proper swimming training, it's worth investing in a chlorine-resistant Lycra swimming costume, that will be better designed to cope with chlorine exposure.
- Design extras: Some of the swimsuits on this list will have racerback straps, allowing you to move freely whatever stroke you're focusing on, others will have a zipped front to make wiggling in and out of the swimsuit that little bit easier.
How to take care of your swimsuit
Like running kit, if you're going to invest in a good sport swimsuit, it's worth reading the washing tag to make sure you look after it properly. Most swimsuits will need to be rinsed off under a cool tap as soon as you get out of the pool to remove the chemicals and chlorine from the pool. Of course, just soaking the swimsuit in cold water won't fully remove the chlorine from the fabric, so as soon as you get home, make sure you properly wash your swimming costume following the product's instructions.
Like your running kit, you'll also want to avoid exposing your swimsuit to high heat, so make sure you air dry your costume rather than putting it in the tumble dryer.
