Can I swim or exercise with my jewelry on?
Many people ask if it is safe to wear jewelry while swimming or exercising. The answer depends largely on the material the jewelry is made of. While some jewelry performs well in these conditions, others can be damaged. Here is a guide to what you need to know.
Why silver jewelry is not suitable for water and sweat
Silver jewelry, especially those made of 925 sterling silver, is beautiful and popular, but it is not ideal for use in water or during exercise. Silver can oxidize when exposed to moisture and sweat, which can lead to discoloration and loss of luster. In particular, contact with chlorinated water, salt water, and soaps can accelerate this process. Although silver jewelry can be repolished, repeated exposure to moisture will reduce its lifespan and beauty over time. Gold-plated silver jewelry will lose its coating over time if exposed to water.
The benefits of waterproof steel jewelry
Waterproof jewelry made of stainless steel is an excellent alternative for those who want jewelry that can be worn without worry in everyday life – even while bathing or exercising. Stainless steel is resistant to water, sweat and chemicals, making it ideal for an active lifestyle. It requires minimal maintenance and retains its shine even when exposed to moisture.
