10 Eco-friendly Swimsuits From Brands We Can’t Get Enough Of

You’ve probably noticed a rise in sustainable swimwear from brands you already know and love. As far as trends go, this is easily one of our favorites–and we hope it sticks around forever. You may be thinking: Why should I buy eco-friendly swimwear? If not for the incredible styles (see for yourself below), you’d also be taking part in limiting the negative impact of swimwear on the environment. Seems like a win-win, right?

Many brands are working towards sustainability: whether that’s through the use of recycled plastic bottles or fishing nets recovered from the ocean for their fabrics, or consciously focusing on sustainable practices within their manufacturing and packaging. We applaud the dedication and consideration, so we want to do our part by supporting these amazing brands who are creating products we’re excited to wear.

Toast Signature Crop Top (Spruce) $60, Toast Signature High Waist Bottom (Spruce) $55

Toast Swim

We’re total suckers for a bikini with sleeves, and this one comes in the most beautiful colors. If you weren’t already convinced solely based on the style, the fact that the fabric is eco-friendly might help seal the deal. The brand, which we fell in love with right after discovering, gives off ~zen~ vibes and is dedicated to sustainability, using recycled materials for all of their swiwmear and even eco-friendly packagaing. So, even if this style or color isn’t for you, it’s worth checking out their website to find something that is. Follow Toast on Instagram
