Pickup currently unavailable at BSS
Built for the Water, Kind to the Ocean
The Free Fly Women's Wavebound One Piece Suit pairs flattering coverage with performance construction that holds up in the surf, pool, and open water. The square-neck silhouette and high-cut leg deliver a classic shape with a confident, modern fit, while the cheeky low-coverage back keeps things fresh without sacrificing comfort.
At the core of the Wavebound is Free Fly's TideKnit fabric, a stretch swim knit crafted entirely from recycled ghost fishing nets. Choosing this suit means reclaimed ocean waste gets a second life as high-performance swimwear.
TideKnit Fabric Technology
TideKnit is Free Fly's proprietary swim fabric engineered from recycled fishing nets recovered from the ocean. The result is a material that performs where it matters: it resists chlorine and salt water breakdown, moves with your body through 4-way stretch, and dries fast after every session. The seamless construction eliminates pressure points so the suit stays comfortable from the first set to the last lap.
- Body: 80% Recycled Nylon / 20% Recycled Elastane at 200 GSM
- Lining: 87% Recycled Nylon / 13% Spandex at 140 GSM
UPF 50+ Sun Protection
Every inch of the Wavebound's TideKnit shell carries a UPF 50+ rating, blocking over 98% of harmful UV rays. Whether you are paddling out, lounging on the beach, or spending a full day on the water in South Florida sun, the fabric works as a first line of defense against UV exposure without adding weight or restricting movement.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is TideKnit fabric?
- TideKnit is Free Fly's proprietary stretch swim knit made from recycled ghost fishing nets recovered from the ocean. It offers 4-way stretch, fast drying, and resistance to both chlorine and salt water, while diverting waste plastic from marine environments.
- Does the Wavebound One Piece have UPF protection?
- Yes. The Wavebound is rated UPF 50+, which means the TideKnit shell blocks over 98% of UV rays. The rating is built into the fabric itself, not a topical coating, so it does not wash out over time.
- Is the Free Fly Wavebound suit good for swimming in the ocean and the pool?
- Yes. The TideKnit fabric is specifically constructed to resist both chlorine and salt water degradation, making the Wavebound equally well suited for pool laps and open-water sessions.
- What is the fit like on the Wavebound One Piece?
- The Wavebound features a square-neck front, high-cut leg, and a cheeky low-coverage fit at the seat. The seamless construction and 4-way stretch provide all-day comfort without restriction. Use the variant picker to select your size.
- How do I care for the Free Fly Wavebound swimsuit?
- Hang dry only. Machine drying can break down the stretch fibers and reduce the UPF 50+ rating over time. Rinse in fresh water after use in the ocean or pool to extend the life of the fabric.
- Is the Free Fly Wavebound a sustainable swimsuit?
- Yes. The suit is built from TideKnit fabric made entirely from recycled ghost fishing nets. Both the body shell and the lining use recycled nylon as the primary material, reducing the demand for virgin synthetic fibers.
