At CAPALA SWIM, we believe sustainability is not a trend - it’s a responsibility. Our love for the ocean, sun, and slow living inspires every decision we make, from design to production. That’s why we’re committed to creating swimwear that not only looks and feels good, but also respects the planet we call home.

Made with REPREVE®

Our Paradiso, Enchanted & Untamed swimwear is crafted using REPREVE®, a high-performance fabric made from recycled plastic bottles. Instead of ending up in landfills or polluting our oceans, these bottles are transformed into a soft, durable yarn that forms the foundation of our swim collections.

Using REPREVE® helps:

• Divert waste from oceans and landfills

• Conserve water and energy during production

• Reduce greenhouse gas emissions

We choose REPREVE® not only for its lower environmental impact, but also for its premium quality. It’s breathable, sculpting, and designed to move with you - so you can swim, sunbathe, and live in your bikini, knowing it's been made with purpose.

Fair Production Starts With People

As a small, female-led business, we’re in direct, personal contact with the team who brings our pieces to life which a 80% female team. 

We work closely with with them to ensure that shares our values of integrity, transparency, and fairness. We’ve built genuine, first-hand relationships with our production team - we know the names and faces behind our bikinis, and we’re proud to work with people who are treated with the respect they deserve.

We believe that how something is made is just as important as what it’s made from. And while ethical production should be the standard - we’re proud to work with makers who treat their staff with the respect they deserve.

Everyone involved in bringing CAPALA SWIM to life - from fabric cutters to sewers and packers - is paid fair wages in safe, supportive working conditions. We believe that sustainability isn't just about materials — it's also about the humans who help make it happen.

Small Batches, Slow Fashion

We produce in small, considered quantities. That means less waste, less overproduction, and more thoughtful collections that reflect what you actually want to wear. Our designs are intentionally timeless - made to last longer than a trend cycle, and to be worn season after season.

We exist to offer a conscious alternative in a world full of fast, disposable fashion. Because if you can buy beautiful swimwear made more responsibly - why wouldn’t you?

Conscious Packaging

All orders are packed with care using minimal, recyclable materials. We don’t believe in excess. No unnecessary plastic, no clutter, just the essentials - delivered in packaging that can go straight into your home recycling bin.

Our Ongoing Journey

We don’t claim to be perfect. That's because the idea of truly sustainable fashion is complex, and sometimes contradictory. It’s a journey, not a final product.

We're here to offer an option that does things differently. We know there are barriers to shopping more responsibly - whether that’s access, cost, or information - and we’ll always be open and honest about where we’re at, and where we’re headed.

We’re grateful to grow alongside a community that values transparency, ethics, and a better way forward. Whether you’re discovering us for the first time or you’ve been here since day one - thank you for choosing swimwear that’s made with more thought, and more heart.
