sturdy bikini top

Rating:****
Bought an XS for boat paddling. I'm a petite and the shape and padding in the cups are perfect for working out on the beach and on the water. I recommend the Patagonia Solid Bibiana which doesn't have a back tie. The back tie on the Boucau digs into your back if you wear a lifejacket. Still - a good product. Will buy their swim tops in the future.

Good Fit

Rating:*****

Cute top and fits great. Being a C/D cup but thin around the rib cage I ordered the medium and it's perfect. If you are a full D I'd go with the size large, patagonia halters are not size for busty women. It is great if you want some support and want to look good. The ties on the neck and back are very easy to adjust and comfortable.

Killer Top!

Rating:*****

Great coverage and support for anyone who is active outside on the beach or rivers! I am a 34C and purchased a large. The top is quite flattering and I purchased the matching bottoms (PAT1409) to go along with them in a medium size. Also after a few washes they have yet to fade unlike other bathing suits after a little wear and tear.

amazing swimsuit

Rating:*****

I love this halter top! It is really well-made, and flattering even on those like me who are not so well-endowed. I am somewhere between a 34b and a 36a, and I got it in Medium. It fits perfectly, with just the right amount of coverage (showing some skin, but I don't worry that I'm going to expose myself). Just buy it already!

First Bikini

Rating:*****

This is my first bikini in a long long time and I absolutely love it. More or less lived in it while in Mexico. Stayed put during diving and swimming along with pool-side cocktailing. I'm a 34 C and ordered a M. I was adequately covered and didn't feel that I had to worry about "falling" out at any point.

Patagonia Suits are the best!

Rating:*****
Swimsuits by Patagoina are some of the few that hold up to waterskiing. I still have a few suits that are 3-4 years old and still going strong. This is my favorite top, it allows me to adjust the straps to fit my large lats without digging in.

Yay for Patagonia!

Rating:*****
Everything I have ever bought from Patagonia has a perfect fit, wonderful quality, and ends up in my closet a million times longer than other clothing I own. This suit is no different. I LOVE IT.

Fun top, lots of coverage

Rating:****

This is a really nice top. Great quality. I didn't expect the padding, but it does cover everything. Good for sports on the beach, but not the greatest for sun bathing because of all the coverage.

Nice Suit

Rating:****
Nice material and cut. Some slight gaping in the front, but this is the best suit I've found for a small bust.

Great product!

I loved my last Patagonia bathing suit and this one is just as great.

Negative Reviews:

no support

Rating:**

This top looked amazing on the Patagonia model in the photo and the reviews were all very positive, but I didn't think this top was "highly supportive" at all. I think the under-bust band doesn't provide much support for a C cup and the the very thin "soft cups" add nipple coverage but no support or shaping. Just not very flattering for bigger cup sizes.
