NAVY BOWEN SWIM BOTTOM

Love this performance/swim fabric and this bottom is just a great design. I love switching up front/back and changing up the ties.

I was devastated last year when I missed the launch of this suit so I eagerly ordered the set when it re-launched. I was initially devastated when I put the bottoms on, I thought they were too small. I followed the tutorial on pulling the leg openings to break the stay stitching and that helped a ton. It now feels compressive and secure. For reference I am 5’9” with about a 36” waist and 47” hips. I typically wear a large or xl in their other pants/underwear.

Great feel to the fabric. Ordered based on my measurements and the expectation that it fit tight, however I ended up bulging over the top and really felt uncomfortable with how I felt in it. I don’t know if it would have relaxed enough to feel more comfortable wearing, but not willing to risk it so sending back

For reference, I’m 5’4, waist 35” and hips 47”, I got a large and definitely could have gone up a size but tend to fluctuate down in the summer. I was skeptical when I opened the package, and even when I tried them on the first time. Second time though, I popped all those stay stitches, sat and moved in them a bit, and gave em a little stretch… now I love em. I would maaaaybe want a little more stretch in the waist which I find a bit high but I don’t have much torso. It’s a beautiful, thick material, and the quality is heavenly.

Too small. I couldn’t exchange this , only a return for store credit was offered which I declined since there was nothing else I wanted to purchase from them and I would have to pay the postage from Ontario to BC. Disappointed. I don’t find this style particularly flattering . The fabric is very thick and scuba like . There are stay stitches that pop when you first try it on. I think they should include information on a card with your purchase . I thought I had ripped the seam but it was fine . This was last year’s swim line . Not sure if they are offering a swim line again but I would not repurchase .
