Hi, friends!

I know that for a lot of non-binary and transgender folks, swimming can be a pain (especially with a lack of gender neutral swimwear). It’s hard to want to go to a pool or to the beach and enjoy all that it has to offer without having to force yourself into swimwear that isn’t necessarily comfortable.

Just today, a company by the name of Outplay opened its doors for people looking for gender neutral swimwear! For a limited time, they’re having a pre-order sale—up to 60% off!

There are two different types of swimming binders available, and they come in both high and low binding compression:

The Swimmie mid drift binding swim top (pictured above; navy and white) is cropped, like a sports bra, allowing your mid section to be free. 

Here’s an example of a model, named Melo, wearing the low compression Swimmee binder and Tomboier shorts:

The Flatsea full-coverage binding swim top (pictured above in solid navy) is just like a swim tank! No more wearing a sports bra under a tank top!

Here’s an example of a model, named Alex, wearing the low compression Flatsea binder and Boi shorts:

The bi-colored Tomboier shorts (pictured above in navy with a white band) are a pair of swim shorts that can be paired with either swim binder of your choice.

The Boi shorts (pictured above in solid black) come in only solid colors and are longer than their Tomboier counterparts. The shorts can be paired with either top of your choice.

If you have any questions, please e-mail the Outplay company at hello@outplaywear.com.

Seems pretty focused on trans masculine non-binary folks, but still cool! 

I wanted to add that I asked the OP if they knew of any trans-feminine swimwear too, and they got back to me!

“I actually don’t know, but there are some swimsuits on Etsy that cater to trans feminine people.

I just figured that the current things that were for sale on the Outplay store catered to more than just those who are trans masculine. I don’t identify with either masculinity or femininity, and I had in my mind that it would do some good to share. ^^ But if you email the folks at Outplay and suggest more options for trans feminine people, maybe they’d add some new pieces. :D

Here are the links to trans feminine swimwear:

Thank you very much!

The Lingerie Addict published a good collection of swimwear options for trans folk a little while back. Here are the links:
