YOU'RE AN EXPERT SURFER
Surfing is your favorite sport. During your sessions, you paddle to the line up, passing the bar like a duck if you're on a shortboard, or like a turtle if you're on a longboard. You show your commitment in powerful waves of over a metre. Your swimsuit has to stay in place with every move, no matter how powerful the wave. We've designed a range of swimsuits to suit your intensive use 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
Totally adapted to surfing and bodyboarding, the ISA 1-piece swimsuit is the swimsuit for surfers who want to combine comfort and femininity. All its cut-outs have been designed to protect the tummy from rubbing against the board and wax, and to keep the shoulders and shoulder blades clear when paddling. The neckline and transparent effects make it particularly feminine.
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.
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.
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.
REMOVAL OF PLASTIC STICKERS FROM OUR SWIMWEAR
From 2022, all women's swimwear designed at Decathlon will be sold without plastic stickers. This sensible decision is strongly based on protecting our planet and limiting the use of plastic. 940 km of plastic will be saved every year!
Let's make this responsibility a shared commitment by keeping
your underwear when you go into the cabin.
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.
OLAIANDECATHLON'S SURF BRAND
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.
