This will do fine for me poolside, but I'm a bit worried for a lot of pool activity it might feel loose and that a medium would be better.

Nothing like the Original

I've been a long-time wearer of Athleta swimwear. I was excited to see it make a return after it went MIA over the last year. This new line is nothing like the original.

I have ordered this cut/style in the past and this bottom is defintely not full coverage. Fit was MEH at best. If you like some butt cheek hanging out - this is for you !! GO back to previous design please. Returned item. For reference - 5'5" - 122lbs

Really disappointed in this new design! These use to be my go to bottoms, but the January 2026 design is now much more cheeky and flimsier. Sad to see the changes made!

AS OF JAN 2026: If you have any of the older designed high waist swim bottom you'll be confused. They redesigned it for less coverage and it is more "bikini" and less "hipster." Don't love it as much.

I love the color. It's bold and bright. I would prefer if the back provided full coverage of my butt. I'm 5'6" , 122 lbs. slim build and bought a size Small.

Comments about High Waist Pique Swim Bottom

the fabric is less elastic than other styles, so feels very slightly loose or less compression. I found the cut a little awkward too.

Great fabric. Does run a little big, but who complains about ordering a size down?
