Know how
Our expertise
Placing people and quality at the heart of its concerns, Apnée was born from an obsession, that of designing the ideal swimsuit for men. A resistant fabric, balanced proportions, an elegant cut, neat finishes, a singular aesthetic... All designed with respect for the environment, which we cherish above all, and with kindness towards our teams, with whom we have forged close ties throughout the collections.
THE FACTORIES
Placing people and quality at the heart of its concerns, Apnée was born from an obsession, that of designing products with careful finishes, which last over time.
We favor a short circuit, so all our products are designed in the north of Portugal, a region recognized for its expertise and know-how, in factories meeting Oeko-Tex® human-ecological standards.
Throughout the collections and travels, we have forged special links with our manufacturers who work under ethical conditions, in accordance with our commitments.
THE SUBJECTS
We favor quality, durable and environmentally friendly materials, preferably recycled, otherwise organic/natural.
Our swimsuits and parkas are 100% recycled from plastic waste collected in the Mediterranean Sea and on beaches.
Complying with Oeko-Tex® human-ecological standards, our high-end fabric is both resistant, difficult to crease and able to dry quickly.
Our Tshirts are made of organic cotton, compared to conventional cotton, it reduces water pollution by 98%, greenhouse gas emissions by 94%, and its production requires much less water. Our shirts , jackets and pants are made of linen, the most environmentally friendly natural textile.
ELEGANT AND TIMELESS CUTS
Aspiring to create a swimsuit with ideal proportions, we collaborated with a designer who had worked for some big names in fashion. The cut is adjusted while remaining comfortable, the quality of the fabric ensures a perfect fit.
Two cuts are available today, an elastic cut (Milo) essential and easy to wear; and a more elegant straight cut (Enzo) , which can even be worn after the beach.
Our line of beachwear is made up of essential and timeless pieces, comfortable to wear, which perfectly complement your summer looks.
EYE FOR DETAIL
Convinced that "little things change everything", we leave nothing to chance, paying particular attention to detail...
Drawstrings matching our prints, metal tips and tabs in a brushed finish, logotyped buttons, pockets and zipped closures that are discreet, tone-on-tone embroidered logos, nothing stops us 😊
We also offer the possibility of personalizing your jerseys by embroidering your initials or the message of your choice.
PRINTS
Both graphic and modern, the prints are designed specifically for Apnée.
These exclusive designs, inspired by the seabed, are printed by digital sublimation, a more ecological process which ensures great resistance to salt, sun and chlorine, while preserving the brilliance and finesse of the patterns.
