Sun-kissed babes, we found the perfect swimsuit for all your summer adventures. Designed for the rigours of surfing, the Finisterre Women's Econyl Sula Bikini puts function first, while also delivering lovely vintage styling and a sustainable edge. 

That print tho

This bikini is a modern classic, and we adore the earthy colours and understated vibes. The abstract print, by artist Josephine Walker, is inspired by Cornish folklore, flora, and fauna. This suit lands in the perfect zone of flattering and cute, but not overly sexy. Every time I wear it, I get asked, “Where did you get that?” 

Performance Perks

Finisterre is a brand rooted in surf, and their swimsuits are built for the job. The top features a vintage-inspired cut with adjustable straps, ensuring you're comfy and supported. I appreciate the security of the wide back clasp and the lack of any ties. I find if a swimsuit requires tying the straps, it never feels as steadfast, plus knots can be uncomfortable under a wetsuit or life jacket. The Sula Bikini “holds the girls in place," so you can focus on fun without any wardrobe malfunctions. The SULA High Waist bottoms provide full to moderate coverage.

I find the style flattering and secure, never sliding down when diving into the water. If high-waisted tailoring isn’t your style, there is a bikini bottom option as well. While testing the Sula Bikini on a backpacking trip in the Grand Canyon of the Tuolumne River, I was impressed with how quickly it dried after my morning dips. It dried in early morning sun before I packed up. I rarely had to strap it to the outside of my pack! 

Sustainable Comfort That Lasts

The Sula Bikini is crafted from super-soft Econyl, a regenerated nylon made partially from fishing nets and carpet flooring. Along with being sustainable, Econyl is resistant to degradation from chlorine, UV and sea salt, so it will hold up, even when in heavy rotation. I’ve only owned the Sula for two months, and so far the quality feels top-notch. So far, it’s been on backpacking trips through Yosemite, cold plunges in Lake Tahoe, and stand-up paddle boarding and there is no degradation or fading.

Pros

• Eye-Catching Style: Unique Cornish folk print in lovely colors.

• Adjustable Fit: Straps and back strap adjustment for a custom, secure fit.

• Sport-Ready: Designed to keep you secure during water sports.

• Long-Lasting: Resistant to chlorine, saltwater, and UV rays.

• Sustainable: Made from recycled Econyl fabric.

Cons

• Price Tag: At $60 for the top and $55 for the bottoms, it's an investment, but worth it for the quality and eco benefits. This lady will last you years.

• Coverage:  No padding in the top so nips may show– but hey, our bodies are beautiful! Not everyone loves high-waisted styling.
