Water use is at the owner's discretion. While many of our pieces are suitable for pool or ocean water, they are not intended for strenuous physical water activity or prolonged exposure to heavily chlorinated water. It is important to note that sun tan lotions, spas, and chlorinated pools contain harsh chemicals that may cause damage to your item. *Please be aware that colors on our swimwear may experience bleeding while handwashing the item. We recommend taking extra precautions to preserve the vibrancy of these colors. *Please take note that even with the protectant we apply, metals may undergo some color change over time. However, with proper care, you can help maintain the shine and newness of your metal items for an extended period. However, we cannot accept exchanges or refunds for damaged items once they have been worn, as we have no way of knowing how the item was cared for. **** Water use is at your own discretion.
