Advocate Apparel Inspired by the green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas)

A solitary species that rarely interacts with others outside of mating rituals, sea turtles struggle to survive from the day they hatch out of their egg. Sea turtle mortality rates are depressingly high, about 99% of juveniles will meet their demise before reaching sexual maturity.

6 out of the 7 species of sea turtles are listed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) as either vulnerable or critically endangered. Marine turtles are threatened by pollution, marine plastics and debris, climate change, boat strikes, poaching and bycatch, and habitat loss.

The Marine Turtle Research, Ecology and Conservation Group addresses real-world issues related to the conservation and management of marine turtles and other marine megafauna. Their research is interdisciplinary and applied in nature, and focuses on questions related to the spatial ecology, and behavior of marine megafauna, particularly marine turtles, with the aim of advancing our understanding of the impacts that they face from cumulative and synergetic disturbances, and to determine how to systematically mitigate threats to maximize conservation outcomes.

Love

First of all, this suit is strikingly beautiful. I love the colors, pattern, and cause very much. The sun suit is also really good at its job. I spent hours and hours out in the gulf, in pools, and just walking around with no sunscreen underneath and zero signs of sunburn or too much UV exposure anywhere that was covered by the suit. I measure a medium on the size chart by measurements, am 5’8” and 158lbs. I ordered that size first, but ultimately went with a large as the medium felt a little too tight on my neck once zipped up. I also read here this is a good idea for people with long torsos. The larger size did not feel too baggy anywhere or make it any harder to swim. It is easy to get on and off with the sturdy cord on the back. The zipper seems to work really well. If I could change one thing, I would give a little more coverage on the back for a less cheeky look/more UV protection. Ultimately though, this is definitely a 5/5 for me and I highly recommend it. Thank you!

LOVE LOVE LOVE

The quality of the suit is amazing, fits perfectly (5’10, ~215 lbs, usually wears size 12-14, got this in XL based on the size guide), only 4 stars bc I haven’t gotten the chance to test it in the water but I’m so excited to wear it! The photos make the shell portion look more orange, in person it's more brown. Would recommend!!

Great!

Overall, I love this suit. The material is thick and the pattern is vibrant and fun. It’s incredibly well made, and I’m very excited to wear it on my next dive trip!

My one comment is that the suit seems to be made for people with longer torsos. When I wear the suit, there is some loose material throughout the suit and the leg openings are tight around my legs/hit me at a slightly weird angle.

Perfect material and incredible cute!

I saw someone wearing this and was on a mad search to find it. I am obsessed with sea turtles and when I ordered this and found out the company sends you emails teaching you deep details about them, I was overjoyed. The bathing suit fits perfect and the material is so soft and stretchy.

Turtle Love

Super comfortable fabric, flattering fit (true to size), and totally badass turtle vibes. I loved the sun suits I ordered so much, I went back and bought the matching leggings. Rocking such a rad suit while also supporting our ocean friends? Win-win!
