Keeping your swimsuit from slipping can be a common concern, especially when engaging in active water activities like paddle boarding, surfing and kayaking. The last think you want is a wardrobe malfunction when you are in the midst of riding a wave 😳
Here are some tips to help prevent your swimsuit from slipping:
-
Proper Fit: Ensure that you're wearing the right size swimsuit. A properly fitting swimsuit is less likely to slip off compared to one that is too loose or too tight. It is, however, generally better to have a tighter swimsuit over a loose one, so size down when in doubt and take note of online size guides when you have a bigger bust.
-
Adjustable Straps: If your swimsuit has adjustable straps or strings, make sure they are tightened securely to provide better support and prevent slipping. Double knots boys and gals 😉
-
Choose the Right Style: Opt for swimsuit styles that offer more coverage and support, such as one-pieces or swim tops with built-in underwire or adjustable bands.
-
Use Swimwear Tape or Fashion Tape: Fashion or swimwear tape can help secure the edges of your swimsuit to your skin, preventing any accidental slips, especially with low cut swimsuits.
-
Regularly Check Fit: Throughout your time wearing the swimsuit, periodically check for any signs of slipping or loosening or stretched fabric, and adjust as needed. No matter how good a make of swimsuit you have, all fabric eventually thins over years of use.
