Kulani Kini Gather Deep V Thong Bikini Bottom
Pickup currently unavailable at BSS
Bold Cut, Sustainable Fabric
The Kulani Kini Gather Deep V Thong Bikini Bottom is built for the pool deck, the beach, and every sun-soaked moment in between. The signature Y-shaped high-leg cut elongates the leg line and maximizes tanning coverage, while center back ruching adds a flattering scrunch detail that moves with you. Coverage is minimal thong style with a low-rise front and mid-to-high rise back, giving a confident, body-conscious silhouette that holds its shape all day.
RE-KINI Shimmer Fabric
This bottom is crafted from Kulani Kinis' RE-KINI Shimmer fabric, a next-generation performance textile that earns its name two ways: it performs and it does right by the planet. The composition is 80% recycled nylon and 20% elastane, recovered from recycled plastic and spun into a buttery-soft knit with a shimmery, glossy finish that catches the light. The elastane content delivers a secure four-way stretch that snaps back after every wave and every stretch session on the sand. RE-KINI Shimmer resists chlorine and saltwater, retains its sheen wash after wash, and sits lightly on your skin without sagging or riding.
Fit and Sizing
This bottom runs true to size. If you fall between sizes, Kulani Kinis recommends sizing up. The Y-shaped waistband sits low across the front and rises to a mid-to-high position at the back, creating a defined, elongated look without digging or rolling. The high-leg cut further emphasizes the leg and hip line for a classic, confident beach look.
Care Instructions
To keep the RE-KINI Shimmer fabric looking its best, hand wash in cold water after each use. If machine washing is necessary, use a delicates bag on a gentle cycle only. Do not soak or bleach. Line dry or lay flat in a shaded area, as prolonged direct sunlight may cause some colors to fade. Remove excess water promptly and avoid packing the garment while wet, as some colors may bleed or transfer. Do not dry clean, iron, or tumble dry, even on a gentle cycle, as heat can damage the fabric and elastane content.
