Olaian Women’s Bandeau Swimsuit Top with Removable Padded Cups | Stylish & Comfortable Swimwear

This bandeau with a very simple design is perfect for surfers wanting to expose their shoulders and not needing a strong hold in the waves.

As female surfers of all levels, we have designed this swimsuit for beginner surfers surfing in broken waves.

YOU ARE A BEGINNER SURFER

You have just started surfing or only surf a few times a year, during your holidays or a surf trip. You stay where you can touch the bottom, in very small waves or broken waves. You surf for the joy of being in the water and for the feeling you get from it. During your sessions, you often fall but you fall in waves that are not very powerful. We have designed a wide range of swimsuits for you to suit your occasional practice and your body type.

SHAPE

The LAURA bandeau with removable cups is a bandeau with a sleek design, for surfers who do not need a strong hold in the waves. It is primarily aimed at those with a small bust who want to have their shoulders completely exposed.

STAYS IN PLACE IN THE WAVES: THE TEST

We design swimsuits that promise to stay in place in the waves. To test them, we use a panel of female surfers with different body shapes who will follow a test protocol in a pool at our design offices in Hendaye. This protocol aims to reproduce the sensations experienced by surfers when being thrown around by a wave. If this test is conclusive, we go surfing in the sea to test our swimwear in real conditions.

WHAT ARE PADDED CUPS?

Padded cups built in to a swimsuit top are flattering for your bust and sculpt your breasts into a rounded shape without having visible seams and avoiding irritation as opposed to cut and stitched foam pads. Olaian has kept you and your comfort in mind by favoring the use of padded cups in most of its models. The padded cups may be removable and, if so, they let you go up or down a half size.

DRY SIZING AND WET SIZING

To ensure a perfect fit in the water, it is important to choose the right size while you are dry because once they are in the water, swimsuits become looser. We therefore recommend you buy the correct size. The swimsuit needs to fit snugly against your body in the fitting room, you should feel supported. The spandex contained in certain components used in the design of our swimsuits softens and relaxes in the water.

LINING

This bikini top is fully lined, making the swimsuit less see-through when wet.

DO YOU WANT TO EXCHANGE YOUR SWIMSUIT?

Is the size or style not suitable for you? Would you like to exchange it at your Decathlon store? No problem, just be sure not to cut off the label of the swimsuit in case you want to exchange it.
