Playuelita

Do you have a love/hate relationship with bikini bottoms? You don't want more than half of your booty out, you don't want to look like you're wearing your grandma's old underwear. You want good coverage when you go paddle boarding or surfing and you also want to feel comfortable and stylish. The Playuelita sits below the waist, covers what you need covered, and allows you to move at a moments notice when you spot that perfect wave.

• Medium rise - sits about three fingers below your navel
• Medium seat - keeps everything you want covered, covered
• Reinforced waistband
• Machine wash

The Playuelita bikini bottom is our first full coverage bikini bottom at Outplay. It's named after Cayo Playuelita known for its all-white-sand beaches. It's a tiny beach located on the key called Playuela off the coast of Venezuela. The Playuelita hipster-style bikini bottom lays below the waist about 1" below the belly button. It covers you well in the back and stays in place where you most need it to.

Available in three if the basic Outplay solid colors with white bands around the waist and leg area. Similar to the white border around some of our swim tops and bottoms. The bikini bottoms are designed to be mixed and matched with any of our tops like the Swimmee or the striped Añú.

When picking a size, we recommend you use our size chart for guidance. Our sizes aren't exactly like other traditional clothing brand sizes because our products are designed to fit anyone, regardless of gender. Caring for the Playuelita is easy. Make sure you always rinse any chlorine or salt water out of them as soon as you can. Never leave them wet or humid in a closed area. And when you're ready to wash them. wash them in cold water. We recommend you flat dry them. The heat from the dryer debilitates the spandex threads over time which can lead to them losing stretch.

How do I know my size?

It took us a lot of research and a lot of testing on a lot of bodies in different shapes and sizes to come up with the sizing and fit for all of Outplay’s swimwear and sportswear. As much as we believe we’ve created really well thought-out and meticulously measured sizing system for our gender neutral clothing, we know not every style is right for every body type. Because of this, we’re constantly adding new cuts and styles giving you as many options possible for any fit. As we continue to grow, we will be adding more styles, sizes and designs that can fit your body and give you the comfort and confidence you’ve come to expect from Outplay.

All measurements refer to body size, not garment dimensions. Because our sizing is different from most traditional clothing companies, we suggest you use our size charts as a guide. The size you normally wear doesn’t necessarily translate into Outplay sizing exactly the same.

If you’re between sizes, we suggest you size up for t-shirts and sweatshirts, and go for the smaller size for sweatpants and tights.

Compression

When it comes to compression tops, it all depends on the level of compression you are looking for. If you’re looking for maximum compression and you fall between sizes, go for the smaller size. Always keep in mind our compression tops do stretch as they are made of spandex and spandex mixes and other stretchable fabrics. They are not traditional binders and their hold will never be as pronounced or as rigid as that of a traditional binder. They are made to be worn while swimming and being active, and can be worn for long periods of time without causing any harm to your body.

How to measure yourself

We always recommend you get someone to help you take your measurements. It’s easier and you get more accurate and precise measurements this way. If you take your own measurements, we recommend you do it in front of a mirror so you can have a better view of how you’re measuring everything all the way around.

CHEST:

With your arms relaxed and down your side, measure around the fullest part of your chest. Make sure to keep the measuring tape horizontal. Get a full measurement without tightening the measuring tape around you.

WAIST:

Measure around your natural waistline (the narrowest point of your upper body). Make sure to keep the measuring tape horizontal and don’t tighten it.

HIPS:

Measure around your hip bones which are at the widest point of your hip section.

INSEAM:

Measure the inside length of your leg, from your crotch down.

*inseam refers to the length of the garment, from the crotch seam to the hem. You can find style specific inseam details on each product page description.
**These are sizing guidelines. Please take your body measurements to determine you most accurate size.

If you’re on the borderline between two sizes, order the smaller size for a tighter fit or stronger compression. Choose the larger size for a looser fit. When it comes to compression tops a looser fit will not allow the compression materials to do their job.
