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.

10% of profits 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. 10% of profits 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.”

So Incredibly Awesome

This suit is fantastic and sleek! I can’t wait to jump in the ocean! The materials that made the suit fill my heart with joy! Love it so much!

Just the right amount of support!

I have been looking for a suit with good support and now I want one in every design! It's not so thick it's uncomfortable but thick enough that it gives me some support, protection and support. Also bonus I'm pretty tall and it's not too short for my torso or arms! Absolutely obsessed!

Cutest swimsuit!!

It fits perfectly, not too tight, and not too loose. I was so excited to receive my package, the pattern is super cute!

So cute and comfy. Amazing for warm-water scuba diving if you pair it with the leggings!

I absolutely love it. It looks and feels amazing -everyone kept telling me how cute it was. I am 168 cm tall, weigh 60 kg and got an S, which was a great fit although I think it would also work for someone a bit taller, depending on how you like to adjust it at the bottom. I paired it with the leggings and got myself the cutest scuba diving suit, perfect for 28-29°C waters -way more comfy and practical than my 3 mm wetsuit, which felt too bulky for such warm temperatures. Bottom line: 1000% recommended! I am getting another one in one of the other patterns.

Mostly amazing

The suit overall fits great and is quality material, but on me the neck pulls back a bit so I feel like I’m being mildly choked by the suit. Sizing up would make the rest of the suit too loose. Didn’t think I had a thick neck but here we are! Still going to keep and will just not zip all the way up

Versatile

Ideal for wearing in the water by providing warmth, sun protection and placing a layer of protection between you and the marine environment. I would recommend.
