Swim fabric is a different animal
Swimwear can look like activewear but behaves differently: chlorine, salt and UV attack elastane, so swim styles here use tighter high-twist knits and compositions chosen for chlorine resistance. It is also the most standardised category we make — 80% of our swim styles fall in a narrow construction band, which keeps quality predictable at volume.
For a first swim capsule, brands typically pick 3–4 silhouettes (one-piece, bikini top and bottom, a rash-guard style top) in 2–3 colorways. Check UPF rating requirements for your market, lining coverage, and whether hardware (rings, clasps) is nickel-free for EU compliance. MOQ starts at 50 pieces per style; DDP shipping to US/EU is quoted on request — the DDP guide explains landed cost.
FAQ — buying swimwear at wholesale
What is the wholesale price of swimwear?
Median FOB is $7.10 (Q3 2026, 544 styles), middle 50% between $6.50 and $7.80. One-pieces and rash guards sit above bikini separates. Full quartiles in the price benchmark.
Is swim fabric different from legging fabric?
Yes — swim runs chlorine-resistant elastane and tighter UV/colourfastness specs, with linings as standard. The base fibres are the same nylon/polyester families; the finishing and elastane grade change.
Can you print patterns on swimwear?
Yes — sublimation on polyester-based swim fabrics gives all-over prints with no hand-feel change; placement prints and colour-blocking are available on nylon builds. See sublimation vs screen print.
What is the minimum order for swim?
Stock swim styles run from 50 pieces per style plain (100 with branding); custom prints and shapes from 500 pieces. Swim samples take the same 7–10 days as the rest of the range.
