RE-KINI Fabric: Recycled Performance, Real Comfort
The Kulani Kini Crochet Halter Bikini Top is built on RE-KINI, a fabric made from 84% recycled polyester and 16% elastane. The recycled polyester comes from post-consumer plastic bottles and is produced using 75% less carbon dioxide than conventional manufacturing. The elastane content delivers a secure, four-way stretch that moves with you in and out of the water. The result is a fully lined, breathable top that holds its shape without sacrificing comfort.
Crochet Halter Neck Construction
The halter silhouette is defined by double string ties at the neck that sit flat against the skin and distribute weight evenly across the shoulders. Adjustable neck straps let you dial in the exact lift you want, while underbust ties cinch the fit beneath the cups for a secure hold through every wave, lap, or beach session. The tie-based construction means the fit adapts to your body rather than forcing a fixed shape.
100% Cotton Crochet Trim
The crochet edging is delicately stitched from 100% cotton, not synthetic lace or printed trim. Cotton crochet has a soft, natural hand feel and a handcrafted texture that reads instantly as a premium detail. It trims the cups and frames the neckline, giving the top a resort-ready finish that works on the sand as well as it does in the surf.
Slidable Triangle Cups
The triangle cups slide along the tie, so you can shift coverage wider or narrower to match your preference or the activity. The top is unpadded with no padding inserts or pockets, keeping the profile clean and the pack size minimal. The full lining provides coverage and shape without the bulk of molded foam.
Sustainability Built In
RE-KINI is Kulani Kini's commitment to closing the loop on plastic waste. Every top diverts plastic bottles from landfill and ocean, converts them into high-performance swimwear fabric, and does so with a significantly lower carbon footprint than virgin polyester. You get the same fit, the same stretch retention, and the same color vibrancy as conventional fabric.
Care
Hand wash in cold water. Rinse immediately after exposure to salt water, chlorine, or sunscreen. Lay flat to dry. Avoid wringing or machine drying to preserve the crochet trim and elastane content.
