You are learning to surf or surf only a few times a year, during your holidays or on a surf trip. You stay where you can touch the bottom, 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 activity and your body shape.

The fabric of this OLAIAN UV-resistant product blocks at least 98% of UVB radiation and 95% of UVA (UPF 50+). This guarantees effective protection from the sun. It can be used both in and out of the water, for water or nautical sports. The density of the textile fibers filters out UV rays, for long-lasting protection, even after washing. Warning: The spandex in the fibers may deteriorate in chlorinated water.

These leggings help protect you from rubbing against the board, especially around the knees when lying down on the board and inner thighs when sitting on the board.

UPF is a sun protection factor (Ultra Violet Protection Factor) and is standardized worldwide. It defines the protection level of a fabric and more precisely the proportion of UV rays it lets through. To meet the standards, it must block at least 95% of UV rays. UPF 50+ means that the fabric blocks at least 95 % of UVA and 98 % of UVB rays.

The body-shaping waistband helps the leggings stay in place even when you fall off the board in the waves. The cord located at the front of the waistband is designed to be attached to a UV protection T-shirt and prevent it from riding up. Caution: This cord cannot be used to tighten the waist.We recommend wearing a OLAIAN 500 women's UV protection T-shirt (available in short-sleeved and long-sleeved versions) in addition to these leggings in order to be well protected.

Our UV protection leggings are designed to meet the needs of the most demanding surfers.Our design choices also make them compatible with other water sports such as swimming, kite surfing, windsurfing, wakeboarding, waterskiing, sea wading, or SUP (stand-up paddleboarding).

Although these leggings protect you from the sun, phenomena such as reflections (from water, sand, etc.), heat, time of day, etc. must be taken into account. Wearing these leggings does not exempt the wearer from following the relevant advice: wear a UV protection T-shirt, wear sunglasses, wear a hat or cap, regularly apply an appropriate sunblock, drink regularly, etc.

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 or wetsuit and then on the same day test it directly in the sea to make sure it stays in place in the waves.

Developed and tested by our design teams in Hendaye, France. The components used for this product are laboratory-tested to ensure the best possible quality and durability.
