Women’s Lifeguard Swimsuit Sizes: Find the perfect fit

May 18, 2023 | Lifeguard Apparel, Lifeguard Swimsuits, Women's Lifeguard Apparel, Women's Lifeguard Swimsuits

Women’s Lifeguard Swimsuit Sizes : Find the perfect fit.

We are here to guide you through our Women’s Lifeguard Swimsuit Sizes. Every suit on the market is cut differently and made from different materials, so we rely on a few basic measurements to dial in the perfect fit. With all swimsuits, it is best to keep in mind the intended use of the suit. If you are buying a swimsuit to endure swimming, running, or other water sports; it is best to stay true to size to ensure a snug fit. If the swimsuit is for other purposes like lounging, or casual pool use; we recommend sizing up for a more relaxed fit.

Use this ‘Sizing Measurements’ guide to ensure an accurate fit:

First we will begin with the Women’s One-Piece Lifeguard Swimsuits, which are usually the most difficult, due to varying torso, bust, and waist size.

Women’s One-Piece Lifeguard Swimsuit Sizes

Our ultra-durable, double layered fabric does not stretch much over time, which allows for a lifelong supporting and sculpting fit. Sizes are based on chest measurements and run true to size for slim or smaller waists and bust. We recommend that you DO NOT size down and expect the suit to stretch after a few uses. A general recommendation is to size up for in between sizes and we also recommend sizing up for those with larger measurements.

Bottom Line: Overall tighter fit, so don’t be afraid to size up for longer torsos, larger bust or waist. Shop women’s one-piece swimsuits here.

Women’s Two-Piece Bikinis & Lifeguard Swimsuit Sizes

Women’s Two Piece Tops:

Similar to our One-Piece Swimsuits, all Watermen two-piece swimsuits and bikini tops are made with our ultra-durable double layered fabric, which does not stretch out much over time, allowing for a lifelong supporting and sculpting fit. We recommend that you DO NOT size down and expect the suit to stretch after a few uses. Sizes are based on traditional Women’s sizing: XS = chest size 32, SM = chest size 34, MD = chest size 36, LG = chest size 38, XL= chest size 40, and so on (see sizing chart below).

Bottom Line: Overall true fit, so aim true to size. In-between sizes or larger bust should size up. Shop women’s two-piece swimsuit tops and bikinis here.

Women’s Two Piece Bottoms:

Once again, we have chosen an extra-durable Polyester fabric for our suits, which does not stretch out over time. We recommend that you DO NOT size down and expect the suit to stretch after a few uses. Sizes are based on traditional Women’s sizing: XS = size 2, SM = size 4, MD = size 6, LG = size 8, XL= size 10, and so on (see sizing chart below). In-between sizes should size down for a tight fit for swimming, running, or aquatic sports- and size up for true to size, comfortable fit.

Bottom Line: Overall true to tight fit, so aim true to size. In-between sizes or larger legs should size up. Shop women’s two-piece swimsuit bottoms and bikinis here.
