It gently supports the first swims, while allowing great freedom of movement to swim, play, and splash around without constraint. Comfortable and pleasant to wear, it turns every dive into a joyful expedition, for sunny and serene moments by the water!
Designed to accompany your children during their first swims, the Floating swimsuit for children promotes learning to swim in complete safety. Thanks to the FibreAir® (97% air), it helps your child adopt a natural horizontal position in the water, essential for learning to swim in good conditions. A key asset for contributing to the prevention of drowning from an early age.
Unlike traditional buoys, this integrated flotation system allows to limit vertical tilting, keep the head above water, and support movements without constraining them. Your child thus gains in autonomy, confidence, and freedom of movement. While parents enjoy true peace of mind.
Composed of 85% polyester and 15% spandex, the Floating swimsuit is both flexible, resistant, and comfortable. It perfectly adapts to your child's movements and ensures lasting comfort, even during extended swims in the pool or at the sea.
Designed to turn every swim into a moment of pleasure, this floating swimwear allows your child to play, explore, and progress in the water while reassuring parents at every moment. An ideal solution for learning to swim gently, enjoying the water with complete serenity, and creating beautiful aquatic memories.
