Advocate Apparel Inspired by tiger sharks (Galeocerdo cuvier)

Tiger sharks are classified by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) as “Near Threatened”, and thus, research, education and outreach is essential to ensuring healthy populations. As one of the ocean’s largest predators, these critical species sit at the top of the food chain, helping to regulate the delicate balance of populations of those beneath in the ecosystem. Decreased populations can result in trophic cascades, impacting the abundance and behavior of other species lower on the food chain.

Multiple research methods have shown that some species of sharks have declined in population by 90% or more during the last several decades in areas where they were formerly abundant. These declines are due to direct targeting in commercial fisheries, mostly for their fins and sometimes meat. Additionally, sharks are often caught unintentionally as bycatch in many other fisheries, caught and killed in some recreational fisheries (unlike catch and release), and may also be impacted by humans more indirectly through threats like habitat loss, pollution, and human-driven declines in the fish species sharks rely on for food.

The Shark Research & Conservation Program (SRC) at the University of Miami conducts cutting-edge shark research while also inspiring scientific literacy and environmental ethic in youth through unique hands-on field research experiences. Every year, SRC brings out thousands of people, mostly school-children, on their research boats to survey, sample, tag and study sharks. Opportunities are especially made available for under-served populations in the sciences. SRC’s science focuses broadly on understanding the effects of environmental change on the behavioral ecology and conservation biology of sharks in a human‐altered world.

"We are so proud of our collaboration with Waterlust. Not only does their support help enable our shark conservation research, but the apparel itself is a walking billboard for marine conservation. I love it when people on the street stop to ask me about my tiger shark board shorts. It's an opportunity to start a conversation about the wonders and perils faced by sharks and how the average person can help make a difference.”

So cool!

This tiger sunsuit is absolutely gorgeous:)
I ordered quite a few different items and was a bit worried about the sizes since they was to be shipped half way around the World. Followed the size guide and all the items fit perfectly. I love that they use different size models- this makes it easier to choose the right clothing size. Shipping was also fast:)

Grey-t!

If you are a fan of the "man in the grey suit" AKA sharks then this suit is for you! IT IS BEAUTIFUL, comfortable and effective at keeping all your upper parts out of the sun. I cannot wear these suns suits without getting compliments and questions about how to get one. LOVE THEM.

Super durable material! Very cute and stretchy. I love it!!

Outstanding!

Great suit. The fabric is a medium light weight, and very soft. I am 5'7, 130lbs. The suit ordered is a size strong(S), it fits me perfectly in every way. My
shoulders are broad and I like a longer sleeve; the suit doesn't not bind in the shoulders, pits or across the back and the sleeve length is more than satisfactory.

Very happy!!!

Exactly like I imagined it! Beautiful piece cant wait to use it

Wonderful

Better than I could ever imagine
