Black Bikini Bottoms

Full-coverage briefs and boyshorts give the most modest fit and thicker fabric for lounging, swimming, and beach volleyball, with boyshorts rated at 100% coverage. Performance cuts like the Racer Bikini Bottom also deliver full, secure coverage for active days.

Think about rise height—low-, mid-, and high-rise options affect how the waist sits on your torso, and sizes run from XS to XXL so check the rise for proportional fit. High-waisted styles sit below the belly button and offer a compressive hold, while a higher leg cut can visually elongate your legs.

Look for performance styles with drawcords and compression for a non-shifting fit; models like the Rescue Bikini Bottom are built with a drawcord for lifeguard movement. Many racer and rescue styles feature secure drawcord waists and stitching rated for surf and lifeguard use.

Premium nylon-spandex blends and 4-way stretch fabrics wick and dry fast while holding their shape through repeated waves and washings. Flat seams, ruched details for no ride-up, and durable stitching also help maintain fit and comfort, and some performance lines include UPF 50+ sun protection.

Yes—tie-side and fold-over briefs let you tweak how much fabric shows, making them great if you want variable coverage in one suit. Ruched sides help prevent shifting, and low-rise ruched styles like the Holy Grail Bikini Bottom balance adjustability with a surf-ready fit.
