Riot Swim, a Black-owned swimsuit brand, has launched a new affordable line called Ocean Ave that was designed to let everyone standout without depleting their bag. With bright colors and innovative silhouettes, these bikinis and one-pieces are the perfect way to wrap up your summer.

Founded in 2016 by Monti Landers, Riot Swim has been best known globally for its soft high-quality fabrics and sexy silhouettes. The Ocean Ave by Riot Swim collection is also made from the finest fabrics and features sultry swim tops, bottoms, and a maillot that are sure to grab attention. Ocean Ave continues Riot Swim’s commitment of fostering an open community for bold trendsetters through swimwear, and as such, the pieces are available in sizes XS to XL at a price range of $45 to $80.

“At Riot Swim, we believe that coverage and confidence don’t have to be mutually exclusive,” Landers shared in a mission statement. “Our fabrics are designed to give you that second-skin feeling, like a sexy extension of your natural body. Our goal is for you to unapologetically wear our swimwear and not the other way around.”

In the swimwear industry, it is often challenging to be both affordable and sustainable. We often see young people opting for cheap fast fashion options for swimwear from retailers like Shein because they view bathing suits as disposable and not worth investing in. Ocean Ave’s push to a younger generation is significant because it allows them to invest slightly more than they would at Shein or Amazon without paying luxury prices. In addition, it enables them to experience the quality difference between their fast fashion purchases and affordable designer options like Ocean Ave by Riot Swim.
