Here at Zoggs we're passionate about the ocean and protecting our world for the future. Our Ecolast™ swimwear transforms debris that's damaging our oceans into high performance swimwear made with ECONYL® yarn. Beginning life as plastic waste, which would otherwise cause damage to our planet, abandoned ghost fishing nets, carpet and industrial waste is rescued from the oceans and saved from landfill, through different initiatives such as The ECONYL® Reclaiming Program, The Healthy Seas initiative, and Net-Works™.

Our Ecolast™ fabric is made using 78% ECONYL® yarn and 22% LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ creating a soft, comfortable, high performance swimwear fabric. We've put this fabric through its paces in real life conditions and it outperformed our competitors’ fabrics, proving to be 15 times more resilient to chlorine than standard swimwear fabrics.

Ecolast™ swimwear is available to purchase now so you can be one of the first to wear it! We've picked a few of our women's styles for this summer with men's and Junior styles also available in Ecolast™. You can browse the initial Ecolast™ swimwear collection on our website. All made from our new environmentally friendly and sustainable fabric, created from recycled ocean plastic.

Stand out from the crowd in this statement Tranquil T-Back Swimsuit. Featuring a shelf bra for maximum comfort and support, this piece is ideal whether you're at the beach or the pool. Or take the plunge in our Flower Power Triback which is front lined, has a high leg height and offers superb flexibility. It is digitally printed for superb colour, resistant to snagging and has exceptional colour and shape retention.

Take the plunge in our stylish Monochrome Crop Top. With a striped open back for added comfort and flexibility, it features a shelf bra for maximum comfort and support. Great for the pool, beach or the gym. Or if you fancy some colour, why not check out the multi-coloured Mexicali Crop Top? Both can be paired with our Siena brief.

The beautiful Dreamcatcher Deep Scoopback has foam cups, adjustable straps and a medium leg height. We're also loving the Breeze Triback (featured image) which is front lined and offers superb flexibility and the Breeze Muscle 2 Piece.
