_"When my children came back from the beach one day with sunburnt thighs and backside cheeks I knew I had to do better, and to do more for kids to keep them sun-safe...." - Emily Gradon, Tribe Tropical Founder _

A PERFECT ADDITION TO OUR TROPIC OF UNICORN™ RANGE, OUR NEW SWIM / ACTIVE SKORTS OFFER STYLE, SUN-PROTECTION AND MODESTY FOR FEMININE ADVENTURERS!

CARE

To ensure longevity of your swimwear, please:

* Rinse immediately after use to clean out salt and chlorine.
* Ideally hand-wash as often as possible as this will ensure longevity of the fabric

(if machine-washing please use a garment bag, cold water & low spin cycle) 

* Do not wring, rub, soak or bleach swimwear. 
* Dry in the shade – never tumble dry.  
* Do not leave rolled up wet or store when damp.
* Do not iron or dry clean.
* Take care when dressing as over-stretched zips risk disconnecting or the plastic teeth may break, as can happen with any zip.
