Pickup currently unavailable at BSS
Brazilian Cut, High-Rise Confidence
The Kulani Kinis High Leg Thong Bikini Bottom is built for those who own the beach. A true sport thong bikini silhouette, it sits high on the hips to elongate the legs and deliver a clean, streamlined look from every angle. The slim front and genuine Brazilian thong back leave no room for tan lines, making it the go-to high leg thong bikini bottom for serious sun seekers and water lovers alike.
Shimmer Swim Fabric
Kulani Kinis built this bottom from their signature Shimmer Swim fabric, an 88% polyester, 12% elastane blend that stretches with your body and snaps back without sagging. The fabric catches sunlight with a luxurious glossy glow, so the bottom looks just as striking poolside as it does in the water. The construction is breathable and fully lined for all-day comfort, whether you are surfing, paddling, or lounging at the shore.
Design Details
Bind detailing runs along the leg openings and waist, adding structure that keeps the high-cut silhouette exactly where you want it. The binding also doubles as a bold design accent, as seen in the contrasting trim visible on the product. The waistband sits naturally on the hip, flattering a wide range of body types without digging or rolling.
Pairs Well With
This thong bikini bottom is designed as a mix-and-match piece. Style it with a Kulani Kinis top from Island Water Sports to complete the look, or pair it with any standard bikini top for a personalized combination. The high-leg cut works equally well as a sporty thong bikini set piece or as a standalone statement bottom.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the Kulani Kinis High Leg Thong Bikini Bottom feel like to wear?
- It is lightweight and stretchy thanks to the 88% polyester, 12% elastane Shimmer Swim fabric. The fully lined construction feels comfortable against the skin all day, and the high-leg silhouette sits securely on the hips without digging or rolling.
- What is a sport thong bikini and how is this one different?
- A sport thong bikini combines a high-cut, minimal-coverage silhouette with performance-oriented fabric. The Kulani Kinis version uses their Shimmer Swim blend for stretch and recovery, with bind-finished edges that hold the cut in place during activity. It delivers the Brazilian thong look with construction that stays put in the water.
- Is this a true Brazilian cut thong bikini?
- Yes. The High Leg Thong Bikini Bottom features a genuine Brazilian cut with a slim profile at both the front and back, designed for minimal coverage and a clean tan line.
- Can you wear a thong bikini bottom for water activities?
- Yes. The Shimmer Swim fabric is designed for swimwear use. It is breathable, fully lined, and the bind detailing along the leg and waist helps the bottom stay in place whether you are swimming, surfing, or paddleboarding.
- What does it feel like to wear a thong bikini like this one?
- The high-leg design elongates the legs and the Brazilian back means no bunching. The elastane blend provides a snug, supportive fit that moves with your body. Most wearers describe it as freeing once they are used to the minimal coverage.
- How do I care for the Kulani Kinis High Leg Thong Bikini Bottom?
- Rinse in cold fresh water after each use to remove salt, chlorine, and sunscreen. Hand wash with a mild detergent and lay flat to dry. Avoid machine washing, tumble drying, and prolonged exposure to direct heat, which can break down the elastane and reduce the Shimmer Swim fabric's stretch and gloss.
- Does this bikini bottom come with a matching top?
- The High Leg Thong Bikini Bottom is sold separately as a mix-and-match piece. Island Water Sports carries a range of Kulani Kinis tops and bottoms, so you can find a coordinating or contrasting top to complete your set.
