Activities

Above all, a swimsuit should be comfortable, so that you can perform your movements without irritation or pain. The shape of your swimsuit can make all the difference! V straps provide good overall support. The wide elastic under the bust also provides good support.

Chlorinated water can be harmful to swimsuits which are used repeatedly in the swimming pool. Spandex, the component that gives swimsuits their softness and stretch, is sensitive to chlorine. If you swim in pools occasionally, this material is fine. For regular or intensive use, opt for a 100% polyester material.

UV Protection Factor

All our UV-resistant rash guards are UPF 50+, meaning they offer maximum sun protection. 
The sleeve lengths vary, and they’re suitable for different water sports. That said, our line was primarily designed to meet the specific needs of surfers. 
Choose your rash guard based on the duration of your surf session: 1 hour, 2 hours, or 3 hours.

How to choose your rash guard (Part 1)

This Olaian rash guard blocks at least 98% of UVB rays and 95% of UVA rays (UPF 50+), guaranteeing effective protection from the sun. Ideal for water sports, they can be worn in or out of the water. The density of the textile fibres filters out UV rays for long-lasting protection, even after washing. Chlorine-resistant.

UV protection

1 hour: Occasional practice. Choose either a loose fit (easy to put on, comfortable when dry) or a tight fit (comfortable when wet). Look for a loop system so you can fasten the rash guard to your shorts.
2 hours: Regular practice. A rash guard with a drawstring and seamless underarm panels will improve fit and comfort in the water.
3 hours: Intensive practice. A style with added warmth will let you stay out longer.

How to choose a UV protection T-shirt (Part 2: )

At the beginner level, you are just learning to surf or surf only a few times a year. You ride small or broken waves in shallow bodies of water where your feet touch the bottom. We offer a wide range of swimwear for beginners of all body types.

Beginner surfers

UPF (ultraviolet protection factor) is an international standard that measures   the proportion of UV rays a fabric lets through to your skin. A UPF of 50+ means that the fabric blocks at least 98% of UVB rays and 95% of UVA rays.

What does UPF 50+ mean?

Our UV T-shirts meet the needs of the most demanding surfers. They’re also compatible with many other water sports, including kitesurfing, windsurfing, wakeboarding, water skiing, and stand-up paddle boarding.

Suitable for multiple water sports

This top is UV-resistant, but it doesn’t provide total sun protection. Consider other factors like reflections (off water, sand, etc.), temperature, and time of day. Wearing this top is just one part of staying safe in the sun. You should also wear sunglasses and a hat or cap, apply sunscreen regularly, and drink plenty of water.

Surfing Rash Guards, Surf T-Shirts & Leggings

Carefully designed to stay in place in waves of less than one metre.

Resistant to impact of waves

A secure fit so that intermediate surfers can ride without compromise. 

Screen

Accustomed to surfing in waves of less than one metre, the intermediate surfer takes a lot of risks. So it's crucial that she doesn't waste any time or attention readjusting her swimsuit! That’s why we designed this Nora bikini bottom. Its wide waistband with a body-shaping mesh provides a very good hold in the waves, as tested by our panel of intermediate surfers. With a medium cut.

High waist and body-hugging waistband

Swimsuits loosen slightly when wet, so it’s important to make sure your swimsuit provides adequate support and feels snug when you try it on. Keep in mind that the spandex in some of our swimsuits softens and relaxes in the water.

Size

You surf regularly. As an intermediate surfer, you’ll paddle out to the line-up and duck dive under breaking waves if you’re on a shortboard or do turtle rolls if you’re on a longboard. You can handle strong currents and frequent falls. You need a swimsuit that stays in place without restricting your movement. This piece is part of a comfortable range designed for regular surfing.

Intermediate surfers

Whether you’re surfing or swimming in the sea, you want a swimsuit that stays put. That’s why we test all our swimsuits in the waves. This model is designed for surfing, but is also suitable for other water sports, including stand-up paddle boarding, sailing, kitesurfing, and swimming.

A swimsuit made for water sports

Our swimsuits are designed to stay in place in the waves. Our women’s styles are tested by a panel of female surfers with different body types. They’re first tested in a pool under simulated surfing conditions, then worn during real sessions in the ocean.

At the pool, swimwear is exposed to the harmful effects of chlorine. Elastane, the fibre used to give the material its stretchiness and make it comfortable, is also sensitive to chlorine.

Do you swim occasionally? Then this material will be suitable for you.
If you swim regularly or intensively, opt for a 100% polyester swimsuit instead.

Which material should I choose for my swimsuit?

Minimal waste design means thinking differently about how a product is designed, right from the first sketch. The idea is to optimise all the pieces of fabric needed, to fit them together as well as possible in order to reduce material consumption and waste when cutting. Like a jigsaw puzzle! Today, we’re proud to be able to offer you this product designed using this method.
