This is the women's swimwear section of Surf Inc. Most of it is one-piece swimsuits, with the Lombok Bikini top and bottom as the two-piece exception. Retro Swimsuit is the line named on most of them, which is why the shapes repeat rather than spread across a dozen silhouettes. Our women's surf swimwear is a short range built mostly around one-piece cuts.
Style that makes waves – women's swimwear in modern cuts

Composition is printed on the product page. Across the range, composition reads like this:
78 percent polyamide with 22 percent elastane,
100 percent polyester, or
no composition line on the product page.
Fabric weight is given as 210, so the material is close to identical from one swimsuit to the next. We are not going to tell you the fabric dries fast, resists chlorine or blocks sun, because none of that is written on the styles and we do not test for it. What the styles carry is the fibre split and the weight, and those are the two things you can plan around.
Designed to perform – women's swimwear that fits and lasts

Two construction details are recorded often enough to name. Embroidery appears on 8 of the 9, so the marking on most pieces is stitched rather than printed. A zip is listed on 7 of the 9, and that is the detail that gives the Retro Swimsuit its front-opening shape. The remaining two styles do not mention one.
Past that, the styles say nothing about linings, cup support, strap adjustment or where the seams fall, so we will not describe those either. Where a fit detail decides the purchase for you, read the product product page and the size chart. Where the product page is silent, we would rather tell you it is silent.
Sustainable choices – women's swimwear with impact

A one-piece leaves the rest of the outfit to whatever goes over it. Pull women's shorts on over it for the walk back, or take a dress to go straight from the water into town. Lighter layers sit in women's tops, and hats and bags cover the rest of what ends up in the car.
If the cut here is not the one you want, two neighbouring pages are worth opening. Bodysuits use the same close one-piece silhouette but are made for dry wear, and men's swim shorts are the only other swim category we stock.

Do you sell bikinis? Yes. Most of the range is one-piece swimsuits, and the Lombok Bikini top and bottom are the two-piece option. The Lombok Bikini bra and bottom are sold separately, so you can choose a different size for each.
What are the swimsuits made of? Some list 78 percent polyamide with 22 percent elastane. Others list 100 percent polyester. Some carry no composition line, so check that product page before ordering.
Is the fabric chlorine resistant or quick drying? We make no such claim. The styles record composition and a fabric weight of 210, and nothing about chlorine, salt water, drying time or sun protection.
Do the swimsuits have a zip? Most of them list one. A couple do not, so read the product page if that detail matters.
Which line do most of the swimsuits belong to? Retro Swimsuit, which is why the shapes repeat across the range.
