Our fabrics are imported from Italy and the pieces are ethically hand-made in Indonesia while designed in Singapore. 

Most products from our Core Collection will be restocked. Do join our waiting list to be notified when the item is restocked. For other products, they are not guaranteed to be restocked as we do not wish to over-produce. All fabrics are available seasonally hence we cannot be sure that we are able to produce them whenever we want.

Yes we are - from production to distribution, we ensure that we always put the environment first. Our swimwear is fully made with Econyl and Repreve fabrics.

We suggest hand washing our products with cool tap water and gentle fabric detergent. Lay your swimwear flat on a towel to air dry. Do avoid using a dryer or any high heat. You can also find our wash care guide here.

Each roll of fabric may have slight differences in fabric composition. Therefore, there may be slight material variances. However, we strive for material consistency and take material variance with high importance in order to maintain our swimwear quality.

Please note that your accumulated spending will only be carried forward for the purpose of upgrading your membership tier. However, once your tier cycle concludes, or even if you continue to remain in the same tier, the accumulated balance will be reset to $0. 

To become a SunLover, you must first achieve the SunChaser tier, which requires a minimum spending of $300. Any excess balance from this amount will contribute to your total accumulated spending of $600, which is necessary to reach the SunLover tier. Since you have spent $650, $300 goes to qualifying for SunChaser and the remaining $350 goes to chalking up accumulated spend to reach SunLover tier. You will simply need to spend another $250 to qualify for SunLover tier. 

Another example: You made a purchase of $950 that enables you to qualify for the SunLover tier. Out of the total amount, $300 will contribute towards your SunChaser tier. With $650 remaining, you have met the minimum spending requirement of $600 beyond the SunChaser tier.

Yes, the welcome discount and birthday discount can be used in our showroom. Kindly note that these discounts are a one-time use discount code.

Your tier cycle starts when you first join our Sunset Club. Each tier cycle lasts for 12 months unless your current tier is upgraded.

E.g. I joined the loyalty program on 1 Jan 2023 and got upgraded to SunChaser on 1 June 2023. Your new membership tier will end on 1 June 2024 unless you maintain your status or get upgraded.

Sunset Points will only be rewarded after your order has been fulfilled and marked as complete. If you've not received your Sunset Points after your order have been shipped out, please drop us an email at contact@alignswim.com

You will automatically be a member when you sign up for an account.
There are three tiers of membership. If you spend $300 in 12 months, you will be upgraded to a SunChaser member. If you spend $600 after SunChaser in 12 months, you will be upgraded to a SunLover member. 

Sunbather - Spend $0-$299 within 12 months

SunChaser - Spend $300 after SunBather within 12 months
*To maintain SunChaser status, accumulated spending of $300 will be taken into renewal

SunLover - Spend $600 after SunChaser within 12 months 
*To maintain SunChaser status, accumulated spending of $600 will be taken into renewal

You can refer to our membership page for more information.

Sunset points can be earned through cash purchases. For every $1 spent, 1 point will be earned. You can redeem 200 points for $2 off your next purchase. 

Yes, Sunset Points have a validity of a year from the date of issue. Kindly note that Sunset points cannot be redeemed for cash, refunded or transferred. 

To maintain your membership, you will need to spend $300 and $600 within 12 months for SunChaser and SunLover respectively. There are no minimum spend requirement for SunBather as it is our basic tier. Accumulated spending before reaching the tier will not be taken into account for renewal. 

For example: On your first order, you made a purchase totaling $450, which qualifies you for the SunChaser tier. Out of this amount, $300 will be allocated towards your SunChaser tier, while the excess $150 will be added to your accumulated spending for a potential upgrade to the SunLover tier. It's important to note that the excess amount does not contribute to maintaining your membership since you have just reached the SunChaser tier.

To maintain your membership, you will need to spend an additional $300 within 12 months, which will count towards both maintaining your account and your total accumulated spend.
