No matter the destination, summer is a journey in itself. It carries promises in the luggage and desires for the essential. In search of distant horizons, escape, or thrills, sometimes, all it takes is a little.

Apnée was born from an obsession: to create a timeless essential , with ideal proportions , and at the right price . Nine months of research, three trips to Portugal, remarkable life stories, and a lot of passion: this is what we needed to realize our vision and achieve the evidence of a perfect fit.

Rather than following the frenetic pace of annual collections, Apnée lets itself be carried along by the journey, revealing its creations in the form of stopovers . Fluid waves, mystery of the depths, crystalline geometry, and unfathomable reflections: our prints capture the essence of the great blues , mirroring the ocean.

We are deeply committed to protecting the oceans and promoting sustainable fashion .

Our mission is to create high-quality clothing while minimizing our environmental impact . To do this, we use recycled materials , including fibers from plastic waste.

We collaborate with workshops in Portugal that share our values ethical and respect responsible production standards. Through these initiatives, we strive to reduce our ecological footprint and actively contribute to the preservation of our planet.

Our swim shorts are made from 100% recycled materials, including plastic waste collected in the Mediterranean Sea . This process is carried out in partnership with SEAQUAL , an organization dedicated to the recovery and recycling of marine plastics.

Our women's swimsuits are made from recycled polyamide and elastane . The polyamide used is also made from recycled materials, thus contributing to the reduction of plastic waste and the preservation of the oceans.

Our swimsuits are designed to offer a fitted and comfortable fit , perfectly hugging the curves of the body.

To help you find the perfect size, we have a detailed size guide available on our website. This guide allows you to choose the size that best suits you based on your measurements.

If you are between two sizes, we recommend choosing the larger size for better comfort.

Our swimshorts are carefully designed to ensure opacity and comfort . We use high-quality fabrics that provide complete coverage and prevent any transparency when worn.

Women's swimsuits have a lining , eliminating any risk of transparence.

Rinse after each use: Rinse your swimsuit in fresh water after each swim to remove salt, chlorine, and sunscreen residue that could damage the fabric fibers.

Machine wash at 30°C: At the end of your holiday, use a delicate cycle at a maximum temperature of 30°C with similar colors to avoid fading. Place your swimshorts in a wash bag to reduce the spread of microplastics in the water.

Avoid bleach and tumble drying: Never use bleach or products containing bleaching agents, and avoid putting your swimsuit in a tumble dryer. Excessive heat can damage the elastic fibers and compromise the swimshort's shape.

Air drying: Air drying is best in the shade to avoid direct sunlight, which can alter the fabric's colors. Also, avoid rough surfaces when drying.

Cool iron: If necessary, iron your swimshorts on a low heat setting and inside out. However, in most cases, ironing is not necessary for swimshorts.
