Origins and Design Concept
Alipo was founded in the summer of 2024 based on the idea that swimwear is one of the most personal items in a person’s wardrobe. The brand approaches the category with an understated and functional approach, where the relationship between the body and the fabric is the central focus. The result is swimwear that balances tactile surfaces, body-hugging silhouettes, and a modern, serene aesthetic.
Materials, Sustainability, and Portuguese Craftsmanship
At the heart of Alipo’s production is an unwavering emphasis on material quality and sewing expertise:
Italian ECONYL® nylon: The collections utilize high-performance Italian nylon made from recycled nylon fibers (ECONYL®), ensuring a soft feel against the skin, a secure fit, and high resistance to wear, chlorine, and sun exposure.
Specialized manufacturing: The sewing is carried out at a small, family-owned factory in northern Portugal, known for its long-standing tradition and expertise in technical swimwear manufacturing.
Fit and Performance: The cuts are designed to provide optimal freedom of movement and comfort without compromising a clean, minimalist look.
