Need extra chest support? We’ve got you.

Beneath The Strongsuit’s tunic top, a double-layer of soft-yet-compressive fabric offers dependable support along the bust. Our patented design harnesses the sportswear-strength compression of recycled Repreve fabric to deliver soft support for nearly every chest—no matter your gender.

The STRONGSUIT is a ONE-piece garment, designed to be stepped into and pulled up, like a unitard but without the clingy body conscious silhouette of a traditional unitard thanks to the attached overtunic. Our super stretchy and comfortable fabrics make this possible for every body!

In addition to our inclusive range of sizes, the STRONGSUIT has been designed to support a multitude of gender affirming and medical needs. A higher underarm and wider straps can accommodate undergarments such as chest binders and post-surgical mastectomy or recovery bras, depending on your individual preference. STRONGSUIT also contains a discreet brief pocket, often known as a packer pocket, suitable for gender affirming prosthetics.

STRONGSUIT is a sensory-friendly garment made with quiet, smooth fabrics that silently glide through the water and dry quickly, as well as gel printed laundering tags instead of traditional cloth labels. Thoughtfully placed air vents keep the modest overtunic in place, rather than floating up in the water to reveal the contoured and supportive layer underneath. There are no closures to struggle with, as the STRONGSUIT is a 1-piece garment that you can step into and pull on.

Absolutely!

Although it was originally envisioned as a swimsuit, many of our test-wearers reported that they wore their STRONGSUITS well beyond the beach or the pool! It is the kind of garment that you can put on in the morning, walk the dog, run some errands, hit the beach for a swim, then stop for a snack on the way home-- and you're covered the whole time! Personally, I found mine great for hiking! It was cool and breathable, and I could easily jump into the water for a swim and then continue hiking without worrying about changing or being damp and uncomfortable (did I mention it also dries really quickly?). It's the perfect multipurpose garment!

STRONGSUIT will be available in 7 print/solid color ways for our initial release. If you go to our webpage at www.your-strongsuit.com you can see our specially designed prints in the Meet Our Prints section! You can also see all 7 color ways on the models featured on our webpage and in the photos on our Kickstarter campaign. I think ELECTRO INK is currently my favorite print color way (today!). Which one do YOU like best? We would love to see your feedback in our comments section!

Our garment sizing is based on your measurements PLUS your fit preference--it's how we are able to fit EVERY body into a STRONGSUIT. Learn more about sizing here. We understand that people don't always fit perfectly into size reference charts, and that's OK! Our super stretchy fabrics help facilitate fitting every shape. Consider if you want an Athletic Fit (a more body conscious fit), a Relaxed Fit (a looser fit), or a Natural fit that skims over your body, and round you Color-Size up or down a color depending on your largest measurement. If all else fails, and you feel you need a hand we are HAPPY to recommend a size to you!
Just email your chest, waist, and hip measurements to us at info@your-strongsuit.com and we'll get back to you with a personalized recommendation usually within 1 business day!

We're glad you asked!

Our longer-term goals include increasing our size range even further, so we have even more to offer for petite and extra-tall people. We also want to release even more cool and fun prints in the near future. If luck is with us, one of our stretch goals would like to do a winter holiday print line--imagine snowflakes gently drifting onto the redwood trees while you sit in the hot tub in your winter STRONGSUIT... *sigh*
