We are going to start this brand presentation by sharing a little story from the creator of Josea Surfwear, Jocelyn Kotulla. It goes something like this (let’s see if it is familiar to you?)…
Just before your holidays: you finally get to go surfing in a bikini, YEAHHH!
Finding a bikini – Order online? No, too complicated, would have to order too many sizes, and the probability that one of them fits is minimal.
I trust my sizing based on physical experience. Ok, so city centre is it then! Surfing is in; surely a lot has happened since last year. Bikinis will now all fit me super well, go… City centre, here I come…
Year 1
I buy two of the exact same beautiful bikini. Not because I want to buy two, no! But now I’m size L on the top and size S on the bottom.
After the first surf session, both pieces are ill fitting and hanging off of me. I’m more preoccupied with adjusting the pieces than I am with surfing.
Year 2
I grab all the bikinis I like and that might fit well. Unfortunately, only one of them somewhat fits. No matter, I’ll buy it! The bottoms bid farewell after 1 day on the water. Great, good riddance! From day two on: boardshorts. Not sexy, but better than nothing.
Year 3
I don’t buy any more bikinis and opt for a sports bra and boardshorts. Not with the same design, of course. Sports bra from a discount store whose worker conditions are probably less than acceptable, and boardshorts from a surfwear label.
Conclusion: my outfit fits well, but visually, I don’t like it at all. On a scale of 1-10 (1 = flop and 10 = top) I would say 5.
After these three years of bikini-trouble I decided to start JOSEA SURFWEAR and finally I love kitesurfing in a bikini.
So now you know the history and motivations behind the brand, it is time to check out some of their delicious products.
