MEASUREMENT GUIDE

About the measurements

The measurements you choose are garment measurements – meaning the size you want the garment to be.
Garment measurements do not have to match your body measurements, but instead determine the fit and how the garment sits on your body.

Choosing measurements in Econyl®

The garment is made from an elastic fabric consisting of 78% recycled polyamide and 22% extra long life elastane.

Swimwear often has garment measurements that are slightly smaller than body measurements in order to fit closely and provide support.
How tight you want the garment to be is up to you through your selected measurements.
