Caro Structured and Adjustable Back Bikini Swimsuit Top

Main fabric: 80.0% Polyamide, 20.0% Spandex ; Lining: 100.0% Polyester cationic

You are learning to surf or surf only a few times a year, during a vacation or on a surf trip. You stay where you can still touch the bottom of the sea floor, in tiny waves or broken waves. You surf for the joy of being in the water and for the feeling you get from it. During your sessions, you often fall, but you fall in waves that are not very powerful. We have designed a wide range of swimwear for you to suit your occasional practice and your body shape.

The Caro swimsuit is a small bikini top providing a back that is both structured and very open. The bust darts enhance the chest without squashing it. The knotted back makes it possible to adjust it in the best possible way, just like the straps, which are also adjustable.

Whether you be a surfer or enjoy bathing in the sea, you don’t want to lose your swimsuit! This is why we test all our swimsuits in the waves. Each model is designed for surfing and perfectly suits other water sports: stand-up paddleboarding, sailing, kite surfing, bathing, etc.

We design swimsuits that promise to stay in place in the waves. To test them, we use a panel of female surfers with different body shapes who follow a test protocol in a pool at our design offices in Hendaye, southwest France. The protocol is designed to reproduce the sensations experienced by surfers when being thrown around by a wave. If this test is conclusive, we go surfing in the sea to test our swimwear in real conditions.

Shaped cups built in to the swimsuit top are flattering for your bust and sculpt your breasts into a rounded shape while avoiding visible seams and irritation as opposed to cut and stitched foam pads. Olaian has kept you and your comfort in mind by favoring the use of padded cups in most of its models. If the padded cups are removable, they let you go up or down a half size.

To ensure a perfect fit in the water, it is important to choose the right size while you are dry because once they are in the water, swimsuits become looser. We therefore recommend you buy the correct size. The swimsuit needs to fit snugly against your body in the fitting room, and you should feel supported. The spandex content in certain components used in the design of our swimsuits softens and relaxes in the water.

Is the size or style not suitable for you? Would you like to exchange it at your Decathlon store? No problem, just be sure not to cut off the label of the swimsuit in case you want to exchange it.

Based in Hendaye, in Southwest France, Olaian is Decathlon's new surfing and bodyboarding brand. In our offices at the water's edge, we can design a swimsuit and then on the same day test it directly in the sea to make sure it stays in place in the waves.

This product has been tested in use in Hendaye and has been subjected to numerous laboratory tests to guarantee the quality of use for which it was designed: tests on the fabric's stretch and stability, colorfastness when subject to friction, washing, sea water, chlorinated water, and exposure to light, and the product's overall performance after several washes.
