Removable shells
A shell is a piece of foam that is inserted into the swimsuit.
To leave our customers free to decide whether to keep them on or take them off, all our shells are removable from the swimsuit tops.
Everyone is free to add this shell, or not.
The sole purpose of these shells is to protect the modesty of teenage girls.
They help hide the tips of breasts when the swimsuit is wet.
This is not a shape-enhancing pad.
chest band
A wide band has been designed under the chest to guarantee a good fit and ensure that the jersey top doesn't ride up during the session.
Wide V-shaped straps
wide shoulder straps offer greater comfort for shoulders and back. Their V-shape frees up the arms and shoulders, offering the great amplitude needed for rowing without any discomfort. This sporty design also prevents the straps from falling off during a fall or ducking.
how do girls' swimsuits fit?
Our swimsuits for young surfers are designed with their growth in mind, which is why we systematically associate stature with size, i.e. the child's height, since age alone does not guarantee the right size. In fact, two 10-year-old girls can have totally different heights, measurements, weights and morphologies. We also recommend an in-cabin fitting if possible.
our girls' swimsuit statures
Here's the link between age and stature on our swimwear labels:
8/9 years: from 133 to 142 cm
10/11 years: from 143 to 150 cm
12/13 years: from 151 to 160 cm
14/15 years: from 161 to 169 cm
dry and wet cutting
To ensure a perfect fit in the water, we have to adjust our models in the 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.
How 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.
