While the idea of a perfect vacation looks different for every American, we’re willing to bet a swimsuit is still a significant investment. Whether you’re heading for the beach or a backyard barbeque, having a swimsuit with you is an excellent choice for the hot summers ahead.

Cool off by the pool or walk in the sand, supporting American values. Trends may come and go, but proudly showing you love your country always stays in style. Don’t be afraid to let the world see just where you stand–support your troops and stand out with American-made swimwear.

Buying locally is a great way to support American business, but we understand how hard it can be to find American companies. That’s what The American List is for. We’re here to help you find the best American swimwear for the whole family for the best value.

Be Prepared For Some All-American Fun!

There are many things to look out for when buying a new swimsuit. You won’t wear a bikini if you want to surf and catch some sound waves.

Try a reversible swimsuit! They’re popular with two-piece swimsuits like bikinis, but they’re coming around. With a reversible bathing suit, you’re getting two for the price of one, and you’re creating less waste. We see a lot of reversible swimwear featuring a pattern on one side and a solid color on the other.

Don’t miss your fun in the sun just because you have sensitive skin–rash guards are a great option. Most options come in three-quarter sleeves or extended sleeve options to help protect you more from the sun. These are perfect for serious surfers or those who plan to spend all day in the sun.

Did you know there are different fabrics to choose from? A quick-drying swimsuit may best suit your needs if you want to spend all day in the sun going in and out of the water. They’re thinner than other swimsuits and help prevent chafing.

If you’re looking for more protection from ultraviolet rays, the sun-protective fabric can help reduce your chances of sunburn. It’s more protective if the UPF number is higher.

Most importantly, pick a bathing suit that is truly you! You may be a fellow American but also a unique individual. That means you can be yourself and choose the swimwear that represents you.

All these things and more can be found in American retailers like the ones listed above. The American List only includes swimwear options made here in the United States. Each product is made with hard-working Americans just like you in mind. Why not support local businesses and find the perfect swimwear for you and your family?
