Frequently Asked Questions

 

SUSTAINABILITY

 

What is Salty Johnson swimwear made from?

All Salty Johnson swimwear is made from REPREVE® recycled polyester — a certified performance fibre made from post-consumer plastic bottles. Each garment uses approximately 11 recycled plastic bottles, verified through REPREVE's FiberPrint® traceability technology.

 

Is the recycled fabric claim verified?

Yes. REPREVE® uses FiberPrint® — a molecular tracer embedded in the yarn at manufacturing that allows independent third-party verification of recycled content. You can verify REPREVE® certification at repreve.com.

 

Is Salty Johnson swimwear UPF rated?

Yes. All Salty Johnson swimwear is rated UPF 50+ — the highest available sun protection rating. This means the fabric blocks over 98% of UV radiation.

Is the swimwear chlorine resistant?

Yes. REPREVE® recycled polyester is highly chlorine-resistant. Our swimwear is built for regular pool use — colour and fabric structure maintain integrity through repeated chlorine exposure far better than standard polyester or nylon alternatives.

 

SIZING & FIT

 

How do I find my size?

Men's swim briefs and board shorts are sized by waist measurement. Women's one-pieces are sized in standard Australian sizing (6–16). A full size guide with measurements is on every product page. If between sizes, size up for comfort or size down for a performance fit.

 

Do your swim briefs have a liner?

Yes. All Salty Johnson men's swim briefs include a full front liner for comfort and modesty, made from the same REPREVE® recycled fabric as the outer shell.

Do your women's one-pieces have removable padding?

Yes. All Salty Johnson women's one-piece swimsuits include removable padding as standard across the entire range.
