TT Material Index
From the yarn to the skin. Four steps, in the order they are made, each set out with the document behind it.
The yarn begins as discarded nylon, including fishing nets recovered from the sea. Aquafil regenerates it into new nylon 6 yarn, which returns to the water as a swim short.
100% regenerated nylon 6 · ECONYL® yarn
Warp and weft are dyed in two different tones, then woven together in Italy for Swing, Gruppocinque’s performance line, near Lake Como. Each set of threads takes the light at its own angle, so the surface changes as the sun moves across it. 81 g/m². Colour fastness 4/5 to seawater and 4 to 5 to light.
Mill test sheet · Origin declaration, woven and dyed in Italy
A plain warp knit in 100% nylon, 70 g/m², knitted, dyed and finished in Portugal. No finish is applied after dyeing, so the knit meets the skin as it is.
Supplier data · Origin confirmed by the supplier, 2026
The lining is certified to OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 under certificate 9533CIT, which the supplier confirms for this article. This means an independent laboratory has tested the fabric against limits for several hundred regulated substances, limits often stricter than the law.

CARE
Rinse in fresh water after use. Machine wash cold, 30 °C max, or hand wash. Do not bleach, tumble dry, iron or dry clean. A cold, short wash keeps the fabric longer and releases fewer fibres into the water.
