SUSTAINABILITY
ABOUT VACANT MINDS SWIM
Vacant Minds Swim was born from sun, salt, and a deep love for Australian beach culture.
We’re here for the girls who want to look good, feel confident, and actually care about the ocean they swim in.
Because you shouldn’t have to choose between style and sustainability.
With Vacant Minds Swim you get both.
Our Fabric: REPREVE® Recycled Swim
Every Vacant Minds piece is made using premium REPREVE® Tahiti fabric, turning post-consumer waste into high-performance swimwear.
What’s inside:
• 78% Recycled Nylon (REPREVE®) made from plastic bottles and ocean-bound waste
• 22% Xtra Life Lycra for stretch, support, and shape that actually lasts
• UPF 50+ built-in protection for harsh Australian sun
Certified & Conscious
We don’t just say sustainable. We back it.
• GRS Certified verified recycled content + responsible production
• OEKO-TEX Certified no harmful chemicals, ever
Why Recycled Matters
Choosing recycled over virgin nylon can mean:
• Up to 80% less CO₂ emissions
• Major water savings during production
• Less plastic ending up in oceans and landfill
• Lower overall energy use
Small switches. Big impact.
Made For Real Life Wear
We design pieces you’ll wear for years. Not one summer.
• Saltwater resistant
• Chlorine resistant
• Warp knit construction = holds shape longer
