ujumisriided

Ujumisriided is the Estonian term for swimwear. These garments are designed for swimming and water activities, intended to reduce drag, provide coverage and support, and dry quickly after immersion. The term encompasses a range of garments worn at pools, beaches, and during training or competitive swimming in Estonia and elsewhere.

Common varieties include one-piece swimsuits, two-piece sets such as bikinis, swim trunks or boardshorts for men, rash guards with long or short sleeves, and modest designs such as swim dresses or burkinis. Athletes may use specialized racing suits or practice suits with tighter fit and reduced drag.

Most ujumisriided are made from synthetic blends such as polyester or nylon with elastane or spandex to provide stretch. Fabrics are chosen for quick drying, durability in chlorinated water, and resistance to fading. Some items incorporate UPF fabric for sun protection.

Designs vary by activity: racing suits prioritize compression and minimal seams; recreational suits emphasize comfort and movement. Care instructions typically include rinsing after use, washing in mild detergent with cool water, avoiding fabric softeners, and air drying away from direct heat to preserve elasticity and color.

Environmental considerations influence material choices, with increasing use of recycled polyester or nylon. In many regions, ujumisriided reflect cultural norms of swimwear, while in others, modest or specialized designs provide additional coverage.
