Sustainable & ethically sourced swimwear at our forefront.
We are starting to see a shift to slow living and people using nature and the ocean as their play ground - solitude. It has been a huge shift this year for people’s mental health and lifestyle choices. We want to be a part of that shift.
With sustainable and ethically sourced swimwear at the forefront of where we are going, and our roots deep in the cold Cornish waters, we swim together in sisterhood and strength.
Sale & Last Chance
Based by the sea in Cornwall, UK
We come from a lifetime love affair with the sea and, more recently, cold water swimming.
Being lucky enough to swim along the beautiful Cornish coast, we want to protect this by stocking sustainable swimwear and clothing.
