Left on Friday Hi Hi Bottom

Left on Friday treats swimwear as performance gear first and fashion second. The compression, quick-dry fabric, and built-in resistance to chlorine, salt, fading, and snagging aren't happy accidents — they're engineered in. The Hi Hi Bottom holds up to real water life, whether that's a lap pool, a resort pool, or a river access point on a summer hike-in.

The Hi Hi Bottom is a high-rise, high-leg bikini bottom with minimal bum coverage. It's Left on Friday's signature style — the one that built the brand's reputation for flattering, compressive swimwear. High waist, high cut leg, smooth Italian fabric. It makes you look taller, feels held-in without being squeezed, and handles real water activity without shifting around.

High on the waist, high on the leg, and minimal at the back. Think of it as a classic '90s high-cut silhouette — elongating and athletic, with medium bum coverage.

The Hi Hi Bottom uses 46% nylon, 38% polyester, and 16% Lycra, sourced from Italy. The lining is 90% nylon and 10% spandex. The fabric compresses when wet, dries quickly, resists fading and snagging, and holds up to chlorine and salt water equally well.

Left on Friday recommends sizing the Hi Hi Bottom to your waist measurement for high-rise styles. The fabric is compressive — it should feel snug but not uncomfortable. Elastics that dig in are the signal to size up. In the water, the suit relaxes slightly. This is intentional and accounted for in the design.

Most customers find it runs true to size. Because the fabric is compressive by design, some people with larger hips or thighs find sizing up gives a more comfortable fit.

Yes. The fit and fabric are designed for active use, not just pool lounging. The compressive construction keeps everything in place during waves, swimming, and paddling. It's a genuine performance bikini bottom at its core.

Machine wash cold, then line dry or tumble dry low. Avoid high heat — it breaks down Lycra over time. Rinsing after chlorine or salt water exposure extends the life of the fabric.

Yes. Left on Friday's colors are designed to work together across styles. The Hi Hi Bottom ships in the same colorways as the Sunday Top, making it straightforward to build a coordinated set or mix and match deliberately.

Anyone who wants a flattering, high-waisted swim bottom that actually stays in place. It runs across body types and gets consistent praise from a wide range of customers — including those who've tried a lot of swimwear and found most of it disappointing. If you've been skeptical about high-leg styles before, the combination of fabric quality and construction often changes minds.

The Sunday Top is designed in Vancouver, Canada, and made in California and Taiwan.
