🩱Swimwear That Lasts in Chlorine Designed For Movement, Support, And Confidence
If you love aquafit, aquacise, or any kind of aqua fitness class, you know your swimsuit works harder than a typical beach suit. Constant movement, chlorine exposure, and frequent washes can quickly wear out regular swimwear. That’s why the right chlorine-resistant swimsuit makes all the difference.
At Swimwear Express (By Appointment Only) in Winnipeg, we help women 45+ find supportive, comfortable, and confidence-boosting aquafit swimsuits that move with you, not against you.
💧 Why Fabric Matters In The Pool
Chlorine breaks down Lycra and elastane quickly, causing fading and sagging. For regular pool workouts, choose polyester or PBT fabrics that hold their color and shape.
Gabar - our most trusted brand for aquafit and aquacise swimwear, made from durable polyester designed to resist chlorine damage.
Finz and Maxine - also offer select chlorine-resistant swimwear options when available.
Polyester swimsuits can last up to 10 times longer than traditional Lycra styles, making them a smart choice for women who swim or exercise weekly. They’re also quick-drying, fade-resistant, and comfortable enough for extended wear.
🩱 How To Choose The Right Aquafit Swimsuit
Choose chlorine-resistant polyester or PBT fabric for lasting performance.
Look for wide straps and built-in bust support for confidence and comfort.
Pick modest cuts that stay in place during active water movement.
Avoid string ties or delicate details that can shift or snag in class.
These features help you feel supported and comfortable from warm-up to cool-down.
💪 Support That Stays Put During Class
Aqua fitness classes are full of motion - jogging, kicking, twisting, reaching. The last thing you want is to adjust your straps every few minutes. Look for:
Wide adjustable straps or racerback designs for shoulder stability
Built-in shelf bras or soft cup support for comfort and security
Modest leg lines and higher necklines to prevent ride-up or gaping
These aqua fitness swimsuits are built for movement - they support, flatter, and stay put through every routine.
🌸 Styles That Work For Aquafit & Aquacise
One-piece suits offer easy coverage and stay in place through any movement.
Kneesuits or legsuits add extra hold for high-energy workouts.
If you prefer a two-piece, choose a tankini top with secure swim shorts - skip string ties or loose cuts that shift in the water.
Most women love a classic chlorine-resistant one-piece for aquafit. It’s reliable, flattering, and designed to make you feel comfortable from start to finish.
💕 Fit Confidence For Every Body
Feeling confident in your suit matters as much as performance. That’s why Swimwear Express offers personalized fittings to help you find your ideal balance of comfort, support, and style.
Gabar’s shaping designs feature gentle tummy control, soft linings, and supportive stretch fabrics that enhance your shape while keeping you secure. Whether you prefer a modest one-piece or a colorful patterned style, there’s a suit that fits your body beautifully - and lasts season after season.
Featured Brand: Gabar – trusted by women across Canada for chlorine-resistant, supportive aquafit and aquacise swimwear available exclusively at Swimwear Express in Winnipeg.
