Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. The Landry Reversible Bottom is designed for active days in the water because it combines secure shaping with movement-friendly construction. It has a medium/high front rise that helps keep the bottom in place, a higher-leg cut that frees your hips for kicking and lunging, and seamless construction that reduces rubbing during repeated motion. The piece is made as part of our swim line intended for beach and surf activities and includes UPF 50+ protection for the fabric-covered areas. Who benefits most are busy, style-minded women who want a bottom that stays put while chasing waves, playing with kids, or sprinting for a volleyball. Note that the cut is cheekier with less coverage, so if you need maximum coverage or extra security in heavy surf, you might prefer a fuller-coverage style or a more athletic cut.
The Landry flips like a mood ring for your swimwear: fully reversible construction means both sides are finished and smooth, giving you two polished looks in one piece. One side shows a seasonal peri tone for a playful, feminine pop while the other side is classic navy for a cleaner, timeless silhouette. Because the bottom is seamless and constructed from our recycled swim fabric, both faces lie flat and pair easily with different tops for instant mix-and-match versatility. This is ideal for travelers, capsule wardrobe lovers, and anyone who wants to get twice the outfits out of one piece. If you want something playful and standout go peri, and if you prefer a go-with-anything, elegant option choose navy.
Yes, the fabric provides UPF 50+ sun protection for the areas it covers, blocking roughly 98 percent of UV radiation that tries to get through the material. That makes it a smart choice when you want fabric-based protection on your hips and front rise. However, the Landry has a cheekier, higher-leg cut and therefore leaves more skin exposed than fuller-coverage bottoms. For best sun safety combine the UPF fabric with broad-spectrum sunscreen on exposed areas and reapply after swimming or sweating. This approach works well for style-conscious women who want built-in fabric protection but still need sunscreen for uncovered skin.

    The cut is nice; however,

    The cut is nice; however, it's a little tighter than the usual XL bottoms I wear from Carve Designs. The color matches the picture and is pretty.

    Not as medium rise as I’d like

    I wanted to love this as an alternative to pipa because I’m vertically challenged. The cut on the bottom was fine but this was not cut as high as I’d like in the front and I missed the coverage. I’ll be returning this.

    I’m 5’8” about 155 lbs

    I’m 5’8” about 155 lbs give or take 10lbs depending on the season of life. These bottoms fit comfortably, not too tight or too loose. Just right.
