Teen Swimwear for Ages 8 to 15
Teen swimwear at MINOTI covers ages 8 to 15, with swimming costumes for girls and swim shorts for boys. It is the kit that goes in the bag for school swimming lessons, club training and the local pool at the weekend, then comes on holiday for the beach. Sizes follow the older end of the MINOTI chart, so a 9-year-old and a 14-year-old can both find their size in one place.
Measure your child's height and pick the nearest centimetre size. An 11-year-old usually takes 152 cm. Swimwear should sit close to the body when dry, because the fabric gives a little in the water. If you're searching for a swimsuit, that is another name for the swimming costumes here. After chlorine or seawater, rinse in cold fresh water and dry out of direct sun. Check the care label for washing.

Your questions answered
MINOTI Teen Swimwear is a collection of swimming costumes for girls and swim shorts for boys aged 8 to 15, in height-based centimetre sizes from the MINOTI childrenswear chart, where a 10-year-old usually takes 146 cm.
What size swimming costume should a 12-year-old wear?
A 12-year-old usually takes 158 cm in MINOTI swimwear. If your child is tall or small for their age, go by height instead: measure them without shoes and choose the size closest to that number in centimetres.
How do I stop chlorine fading my child's swimwear?
Rinse it in cold fresh water within 30 minutes of swimming, then dry it flat in the shade. Keep it out of the tumble dryer and follow the care label. If your child swims two or three times a week, a second costume to swap between helps both last longer.
