Can I swim with this product?

I agree with the "temporary immersion" theory. I would think chlorine or salt water would eventually mess with the band or screen. The thought is that you don't have to worry about it getting wet when it rains, or washing your hands, or a quick shower.

This device is IP67 Rated. The first digit (6) is the dust rating, 6 is the maximum rating and the device is completely dust proof. The second digit (7) is the water rating, 7 is defined specifically as "Protection against temporary immersion between 15cm and 1m for 30 minutes". Up to you if you take the risk, in theory you could swim laps for 25 minutes (not recreational, diving, etc) and be fine.

All of the documentation I have found online states water resistant.Which usually means as long as you aren't diving with it you should be ok. My concern though would be the optical sensor on the back used for measuring heart rate. I personally would not swim with it on.

I would worry about the chemicals in the pool more than the water. I wouldn't do it.

I understand it is water resistant, so you can work out and shower with it, however, their website says to remove it before swimming. Hope that helps.

I don't know. I tried to find out if I can wear it swimming, but googling did not provide answers. I would guess given its construction that it is not waterproof.

Sorry it isn't water resistant you can exercise with it but can't go swimming with it. There are three holes on the bottom so it can fill up with water if you swim.

Maybe try one in the bathtub first?I know this product lives up to all it's other claims, if it says it floats , I bet it does!

No, it is waterproof, but i wouldn't recommend swimming with it. It will probably slip off, the elasic band wears out after awhile. I had to keep pulling it up after a month of wearing.

I have not tried this with swimming, I don't think it was meant to do that. I have used it to exercise - and it did get wet with sweat and still works, no issues

Yes. I would not sybmerge the product in deep water but I use it in the shower almost daily.

Yes absolutely! I wouldn't leave it submerged more than an hour but yes you can use it in the pool!

I've never tried while swimming but I would think it would be fine. The only time I lose it is when I'm doing push-ups or burpees.

Yes, as long as you are not swimming since it says to use water to wash it away.

No but it is made of soft silicon so I would imagine sand would stick to it and get inside it which would be irritating. I don't think it would be a problem to swim with it in a pool.

I'm not a big swimmer, however, it is really moisturizing so I would assume that it would be good for that.

I would never use a weight training vest such as this one for swimming. For one it is dangerous to have any excess weight on yourself when in a pool of water even with proper supervision. If you want to get the maximum benefit from this product, stick to using it for walking, jogging, hiking and running though adjust the weight accordingly. You don't want to exceed 15-20 lbs for running/jogging but start out slow with the weight for walking/hiking as you'll feel it in your quads, traps and hamstrings.

I monitor chlorine levels with dip sticks.As long as pool is clear and chlorine level adequet it is safe to swim.I shock only when cloudy appearance or chlorine level low.

The bottle does not state that you can not swim immediately .the chemical stays in the filter

I don't see why not. Just make sure the three zip locks are well sealed and the edges are still good. I have used it in heavy rain with no problem but haven't tried to swim with it.
