Plus Size X-Back Swimsuits (SF811) – Supportive Thick Straps

Discover the SF811 Plus Size X-Back swimsuit, designed for women who want secure support, confident coverage, and chlorine-resistant durability. With its thick, cross-back straps, this suit stays comfortably in place through laps, lessons, and aqua fitness.

The Plus Size X-Back Swimsuit SF811 is a supportive and durable one-piece designed especially for curvier body shapes. With its thick straps, this swimsuit stays securely in place while giving you freedom of movement for pool swimming, aqua aerobics, or open water use. The X-back style distributes weight evenly across the shoulders, making it comfortable for longer wear.

What makes this swimsuit stand out is its clever use of side panels. These panels provide stretch and adaptability where it matters most, ensuring the swimsuit adjusts naturally to the curves of a plus-size figure. Combined with front and bottom lining for structure and modesty, the SF811 balances support with flexibility, giving a comfortable fit without wires or hard shaping.

Built from eco-friendly, chlorine-resistant Carvico Xlance fabric, the SF811 is made for regular swimmers who want lasting colour, shape retention, and all-day comfort. The cut is slightly shorter in the body length than the similar SF821 style, so taller women or those who prefer extra room may wish to size up.
