Vela long-sleeve color-block one-piece, royal blue
Vela is a long-sleeve one-piece in royal blue, with cornflower blue curves that run to the sides of the body and draw the eye to the waist. The tummy is fully covered but looks lighter and narrower. A cut-out at the front shows the collarbone, and the back opens in an H shape held by a metal clasp. It is made for outdoor water days: surfing, diving, paddleboarding and holidays, with long sleeves to keep the sun off your arms.

Joins both sides, so the open back stays close.
In or out, depending on the sport.
Less water inside, a cleaner shape.
Keeps the front and back openings neat.
Suits body shapes
Works across body shapes and skin tones: softer figures get a defined waist, slim figures a sporty line. Especially good on pear shapes.

Cut for Asian proportions
Tested in motion, so it stays close under water with less drag and no gaping.

Cool, breathable, quick-dry
Cool to the touch, like a light breeze. Dry to the hand about 15 minutes out of the water, so it never clings.
Chlorine-resistant, anti-odour
Stands up to pool chlorine, so fibres don't age, slacken or fade as fast with regular swimming.
Low-impact dyes that don't yellow
Colourfast to washing, sun and rubbing. Free of heavy metals, formaldehyde and azo dyes: gentle on sensitive skin.
LYCRA® shape retention
High stretch and recovery. Close to the body, and still crisp after many washes.
Italian raw materialsOEKO-TEX® Standard 100Chlorine & salt resistant
Flattering, with a balance of softness and strength.
Good stretch, close fit, stays put when you move hard.
Wicks and dries fast. Comfortable even soaked.
With a skirt, shorts or jeans.
Covered in front, open at the back.
"This blue makes my skin glow"
I thought the colour might be too bold, but on it really lifts my complexion, and my waist looks a size smaller.
"A little snug, and I love it"
The long sleeves feel close at first, but once I'm in the water I feel secure. Easy to swim in, and the back looks great.
"Looks great even with some curves"
The best surprise is how well it covers the tummy, and the blue curves really show a waist. It doesn't hide everything, but I look much more put together.
80% nylon, 20% LYCRA® elastane, made from imported Italian raw materials. Rinse in cool fresh water after every swim. Full instructions in our Care Guide.

FAQ
Questions about the Vela one-piece
Does the long-sleeve design help with sun protection?
The long sleeves cover the arms and shoulders, so less skin is exposed when you surf, dive or paddleboard. Use sunscreen on the skin that stays uncovered, including the open back.
How much does it cover?
Long sleeves, full tummy cover and a medium-high cheeky leg that covers about half the seat. There is a cut-out at the front, and the back opens in an H shape held by a metal clasp.
Does it run small?
It is true to size with a snug fit. Take your usual size and size down for a closer fit in training. If you have a broad frame or don't like a close fit, stay at your size or go one up.
Are the cups removable?
Yes. Keep them in for shape and support, or take them out for a lighter feel. Wash them separately.
Can I surf and swim in it?
Yes. It fits close to the body, the elastic binding keeps water out and the metal clasp holds the open back in place. For competitive racing, a dedicated racing suit is the better choice.
Is shipping included, and can I return it?
