YOU ARE A CONFIRMED SURFER
You surf regularly. During your sessions, you paddle to the line up, pass the bar like a duck if you're on a shortboard, or like a turtle if you're on a longboard, then surf waves of less than a metre. You often fall and are used to being shaken underwater. Your swimsuit needs to meet the demands of your sport and stay in place with every movement. We've designed a range of swimsuits to suit your regular practice and your body type.
ACTIVE AT THE BEACH!
Whether you're a surfer or enjoying a swim in the sea, you don't want to lose your swimsuit! That's why we test all our swimwear in the waves. Each model is designed for surfing, but is also suitable for other water sports: stand-up paddling, windsurfing, kite surfing, swimming and more.
MORPHOLOGY
When surfing, a wave can take your swimsuit off at any moment, which is why we designed the BEA bra. Very feminine with its V-neckline mounted on a basque, it has a very good fit thanks to its double back adjustment (top of the back then around the chest) and is suitable for all body types and all water sports.
WAVE HOLDING TEST
We design swimsuits whose promise is to hold up in the wave. To evaluate them, we call on a panel of surfers with different morphologies to follow a pool test protocol in our design offices in Hendaye. The aim of this protocol is to reproduce the sensations experienced by the surfer when she is tossed about by a wave. If the test is conclusive, we head out to sea to test our swimwear in real-life conditions.
BEAUTIFUL IN OUR SWIMSUITS
For 6 years, we've been working to support women's bodies with one obsession: making women feel beautiful in our swimwear. Breasts are not crushed, buttocks are not emphasized, cleavage is enhanced. Our mission is to ensure that every woman, whatever her body type or size, finds a swimsuit that suits her.
DRY CUTTING AND WET CUTTING
To ensure a perfect fit in the water, we have to adjust our models when dry, because once in the water, swimwear relaxes. We therefore advise you to choose the right size. The swimsuit must fit snugly on your body in the cabin, so you feel supported. The elastane contained in some of the components used in our swimsuits softens and relaxes in the water.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO EXCHANGE YOUR SWIMSUIT?
The size or model doesn't suit you? Would you like to make an exchange at your local Decathlon store? No problem, just make sure you don't cut the label off the swimsuit in case you want to exchange it.
OLAIANTHE SURF BRAND FROM DECATHLON
Based in Hendaye, in the south-west of France, OLAIAN is the new surf and bodyboard brand from Decathlon. In our "feet in the water" offices, we can design a swimsuit in a day, then test it directly in the sea to check how it holds up in the wave.
