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.”

I love them!

I got these along with the reversible top for a recent snorkeling trip. For reference, I am 5’1”, 130lbs and got a size M. I’m a redhead so I burn very easily, and these leggings gave me plenty of sun protection! They’re so well made and I love the fabric and the adjustable length options for cutting them. I trimmed about 4” off and they’re perfectly ankle length.

Beautiful design and great quality!

I took these leggings on a paddleboarding/snorkeling trip and they provided excellent sun protection. The side pockets and wide waistband are great. They aren't see-through at all and were true-to-size. Love the whale shark pattern--very unique!

Even better than I expected

These leggings are incredible! The fabric is incredible, they're such great quality....and Waterlust truly thinks of everything. The way to cut the leggings to make them just the perfect size (watch the 3 minute video - even if you don't want to adjust the size, just to see how they really think of everything!) is amazing. It is so refreshing to have a company that is creating such quality merchandise, in a sustainable way! There aren't enough stars here to indicate how much I love these leggings - or this company! Just ordered more! THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU DO!

I wanted to love them

The inseam crotch area is way too small and gives me a camel toe and if I pulled it down any further they’d barely stay on my butt

Absolutely love

I am in love with everything about this set! I am about 5'9" tall and the pants bunch around my angels, which never happens for my. Yoga style pants are usually not as long as I would prefer. These are perfect! Ditto the top. The thumb holes are really comfortable , long enough and don't pinch. Will definitely be buying more and recommending to others.
