Advocate Apparel Inspired by the largest fish in the sea, the whale shark (Rhincodon typus)

Whale sharks (Rhincodon typus) are fish, not whales - allowing them to hold the esteemed title of "largest fish in the sea" (since sharks are fish too!). These charismatic creatures can reach lengths of 12 meters (40 feet) or more! Despite their large size, they feed on some of the smallest organisms in the sea, plankton. Hanging vertically in the water column they're able to suction feed and filter these tiny organisms through their gill rakers much like a giant vacuum cleaner pulls dust and dirt from a kitchen floor, filtering the fragments into its chamber within.

Unfortunately, approximately 100 million sharks are killed every year by humans, through direct targeted fishing efforts as well as unintended bycatch from other fisheries. The whale shark is one species of shark that is particularly vulnerable to this commercial fishing due to their high value in international trade, in addition to their highly migratory nature and normally low abundance. Research into the lives of these gentle giants can help us to manage their populations and keep these magnificent fish in the ocean where they belong.

5% of sales from your purchase of this product are donated to the Marine Megafauna Foundation

The Marine Megafauna Foundation is helping to shed light on the population structure, migratory patterns, and the conservation requirements of these threatened sharks. Created in 2009, they aim to research, protect and conserve the large populations of marine megafauna (large marine species) found along the Mozambican coastline. Almost all whale sharks encountered by divers are juveniles and most are males. Where the school-bus-sized mature sharks swim, what they eat, and where the females give birth has long been a mystery, however their team is now very close to making these discoveries. 5% of sales from your purchase will go to the Marine Megafauna Foundation for satellite tags that are needed to track the movements of these large female whale sharks.

“Waterlust's support provides critical seed funding for us to rapidly develop and implement whale shark conservation projects in areas where this globally-endangered species is most at risk. This includes Mozambique, where our research and awareness work helped the government decide to fully protect whale sharks just a few weeks ago. We love working with a company that is so committed to making a positive change in the world.”

Love this swim top!

I’m 5’7 162 lbs and 36DD and the large is comfy for me. No padding but I can live without it. Gives some cleavage but I wouldn’t hesitate to snorkel or swim in this. I plan to wear this a lot when I scuba dive.

Love my new bikini top

Pattern is great and it feels super well made and is very flattering on me! Very supportive too - no concerns about the ladies popping out

Cute and comfortable

Love this swim top! I’m on the thin/straight build side of things and I think this is really flattering, even on my less-than-curvy frame. I’m 5’10 and around 130’ and the small fits great.

Fantastic!

I’m 145lbs with a A cup, and I purchased a medium. It is so well constructed and fits great! I can’t wait to try it out in the ocean. I would beware of this top for anyone with bigger cup sizes though- there’s not a lot of support.

Fits perfectly and stays on nicely. I got many compliments from the reversible pattern, too!
