Rip Curl San Carlos Sliding Tri Bikini Top
Pickup currently unavailable at BSS
A sliding triangle top built for beach days on the move
The San Carlos Sliding Tri Bikini Top is Rip Curl's take on the classic sliding triangle silhouette, and it is a shape shoppers searching for a sliding triangle bikini top come back to for a reason: it moves with you instead of fighting you. This top is built from recycled polyamide microfibre for a soft, quick-moving hand feel and is fully adjustable so you can dial in coverage and support before you ever hit the water.
What it is made of
- Composition: 86% Polyamide and 14% Elastane
- Recycled polyamide microfibre construction
- Light support sliding tri design
- Fully adjustable straps and slide
- Removable padding
- Metal logo trim and metal trims for a sleek finish
The recycled microfibre gives the elastane blend a bit of natural stretch recovery, which is why the sliding tri hardware can shift without the fabric bagging out over a season of wear.
Who it is for
This top suits anyone who wants one bikini top that goes from a paddle out to a beach day to a boat trip without a wardrobe change. The light support sliding tri build is meant for swimming, sunbathing, and casual water time rather than high impact activity, so it fits the way most South Florida beach and boat days actually unfold.
How to wear and care for it
Because the padding is removable, you can wear it with or without depending on the cut you prefer that day, and the fully adjustable straps and slide let you fine tune fit as the fabric relaxes through wear. Rinse the top in fresh water after ocean or pool sessions to protect the metal trims and the recycled fibre, and lay it flat to dry rather than wringing it out, which keeps the elastane recovering properly wear after wear.
