Product Insights
The Simons Gingham String Cheeky Bottom delivers designer-level styling with a textured gingham weave and ultra-high cut silhouette, at a sustainable $39 price point using reprocessed nylon and spandex lining. Its adjustable side ties and double-bow knot provide a custom fit and secure hold even when wet, while the high-rise cut creates a slimming vertical line. The tradeoff is reduced chlorine resilience—the lining degrades after about 12 cycles and recycled nylon loses tensile strength with chlorine exposure—making this bottom ideal for recreational swimming rather than regular lap use.
Verified claims

- Lining wicks moisture and dries quickly after swimming.
- Stretch recovery
- Lining retains its shape and fit through repeated wear and washing.
- Care
- Hand wash in cold water and lay flat to dry to preserve elasticity.

Deep Research
Fit and styling of the ultra-high leg
- The lining's 15% spandex content gives the leg openings enough compressive recovery to hug the hip without cutting in, which keeps the revealing high cut securely in place through swimming and beach activity without constant readjustment.
- Because the side strings can be drawn tighter, the already ultra-high leg opening can be fine-tuned upward in real time — tying them tighter hikes the opening higher for a more dramatic leg line, while looser bows relax the cut for more coverage.
- Pairing a high-rise waist with the ultra-high leg cut creates a continuous line from navel to upper thigh that visually slims the torso and amplifies the hip curve — a cut engineered to exaggerate the waist-to-hip ratio.
The matching top and how to style the set
- Both pieces allow fit dialing: side tie strings on the bottom adjust waist tension and leg height, while the top's adjustable straps and hook back closure let you fine-tune bust support for a balanced, personalized fit.
- Both the bottom and the matching top are made from the same stretch textured weave with lining, so the set moves and drapes uniformly against the body without texture mismatches.
Value compared to other cheeky swim bottoms
- The 85% reprocessed nylon / 15% spandex lining aligns with the nylon-elastane blends that swimwear designers call out as more elastic, smoother, and more resilient to chlorine and salt water than the polyester-spandex blends common in budget swim; at $39 CAD, this bottom delivers that higher-spec lining at a price point where competitors like KULANI KINIS (regular $75) spec polyester/elastane.
How reprocessed nylon holds up in water
- Like virgin nylon, reprocessed nylon wicks moisture efficiently, so the bottom dries fast after a swim and remains comfortable against the skin even on hot beach days.
- Because reprocessed nylon shares the same polymer structure as virgin nylon, it provides the high elastic recovery essential for a cheeky bottom that maintains shape through multiple wears and washes.
- Shifting from virgin to regenerated nylon cuts CO2 emissions by roughly 4.1 tonnes per metric ton of material produced, so choosing this bottom over a conventional nylon bikini has a measurable climate benefit.
- Reprocessed nylon is produced from post-consumer waste like discarded fishing nets and fabric scraps, diverting material from landfills and oceans while avoiding new petroleum extraction — this bottom directly channels waste into a high-stretch swim essential.
- Independent testing shows that recycled nylon can lose 42–57% tensile strength after 12 chlorine-exposure cycles — so this bottom is engineered for sun-and-splash outings rather than daily lap training, aligning perfectly with its vacation-ready styling.
Simons swimwear quality and brand reputation
- The gingham pattern is executed as a textured weave rather than a flat print, which adds tactile interest and aligns with the wider 2026 swimwear trend toward fabric dimension — this small detail separates it from the typical smooth microfiber bikini bottom and gives the piece a more premium, considered feel.
- The ultra-high-cut leg gives the cheeky silhouette a fashion-forward leg line that elongates the thigh, while the self-tie sides let the wearer dial in exactly how high the cut sits and how much tension is on the waistband — a practical customisation that prevents the common cheeky-bottom problem of bunching or slipping during active beach sports.
- Simons operates a swim department with over 500 styles that range from in-house exclusives to premium international designers, so when you buy a Simons exclusive like this bottom, you're accessing a piece designed to meet the standard set by a high-caliber assortment — not a basic private-label afterthought.
- This bottom's 85% reprocessed nylon lining is part of a consistent material language across the Simons exclusive swim line, where recycled nylon blends are standard — the benefit is a fabric that holds its stretch without the environmental weight of virgin nylon, and the high spandex content (15%) helps the cheeky cut retain its shape when wet.
Keeping side ties secure in the water
- The side knot naturally sits at the widest part of the hip, framing the hip bone rather than cutting across it — this is why the style tends to be flattering across curvy, straight, and athletic body types, because the tie-wrap adjusts its placement to the individual's bone structure each time.
- The ultra-high-cut cheeky cut paired with the side ties means tying the strings higher on the hip pushes the leg line up into an extreme elongated silhouette, while tying them lower eases the rise into a more moderate retro line — the tie height, not the garment itself, determines how dramatic the high-cut looks on your body.
- Side-tie strings inevitably loosen slightly after entering the water, so instead of pulling the knot painfully tight before swimming, tie a snug but comfortable double bow and plan to check and re-tie after coming out — this avoids discomfort and keeps the bottom secure without fighting the knot later.
- Tying a double bow rather than a single overhand knot stops the knot from self-tightening when wet and becoming impossible to undo — the double bow stays secure through moderate swimming but releases easily with a pull on the ends.
- Without a fixed elastic waistband, the tie-side bottom adapts to a wider range of hip measurements than a traditional bikini brief — you simply tie to your exact size, making it more forgiving for between-size shoppers and those whose weight fluctuates across a season.

Q&A
3 answered- How does the sizing compare to other Simons swim bottoms? Is it true to size or should I size up or down?
- We find that this bottom runs true to size compared to other Simons swim bottoms. The side tie strings also allow for a customizable fit, so you can adjust the tightness as needed.
- How much coverage does the 'cheeky' cut provide? Is it more revealing like a Brazilian cut or more modest?
- The 'cheeky' cut with an ultra-high leg opening provides minimal coverage — it's a revealing style similar to a Brazilian cut. Perfect for those who want minimal tan lines.
- What are the recommended care instructions? Can it be machine washed or is hand wash required?
- We recommend hand washing in cold water with mild detergent and laying flat to dry. Machine washing may damage the fabric and stretch, so it's best to avoid it.
