I purchased this here during my pregnancy and used it once. The previous owner said they bought it new and used it about 10 times. It has strings, so it stayed in place and didn't ride up or slip down, allowing me to swim comfortably. I think it can still be used. There is some slight pilling on the back of the pants. Please check the photo (6th image). I will fold it as small as possible for shipping. Please understand that this is a used item before purchasing.
