The singlet has so many things that make me go "whaaaa?". The incredibly high neck. Why not just make it a turtleneck already? And it must be so hard to put on. You would almost need help to make sure your head goes through the correct hole. And then it just looks like a whole mess of strings. Especially paired with a FTB (by far the most superior of all bras IMO), it looks so sloppy.
The bottom portion of the top picture, is that color "cadaver"?
Sorry to be so negative but this stuff is atrocious. Hoping for springy blues and pinks and happy, pretty things.
@Alin - I know. I really dislike the giant gap in the back but the high neck is awful, too. I was all prepared to buy another Water Bound singlet for this summer. I don't understand why they didn't bring that back, it was popular.
I had a chance to try some of the water line as I'm visiting relatives in Naples, Florida. I love the water bound hoodie and bought the printed one shown here. I tried on the top speed bra... I purchased the star crushed coal black but not sure about it yet.. My tts was super compressive where my size up was too loose so we will see. Did not care for the Sea Me Run LS. Not flattering IMO with the 2 different materials The Sea me run crop was tts compressive but I didn't love the angled bottom or the mesh back of the leg. As for the Sea Me Run singlet .. Totally agree, hate the high neck and I had difficulty putting it on initially with all the straps . Once on it looked cool in the back but the high neck ruined it and in my tts was on the shorter side for my tastes.
Sea me run--from that singlet! Good gosh, the last thing I want when I am running is a vice around my neck! Yeesh! The high neck tops Lulu keeps foisting on us are really getting old! Ugh~
I really hate the unfinished hem on the swim singlet. I'm not a fan of the tangled web of straps on the back, but it's the hem that really ruins it for me.
I got the singlet and I'm keeping it as its so lightweight for hot summer running. My only issue is the back looks funky with running bras. Casual wear a strappy bra might look better? I have cleavage and it's nice not to show sometimes. I was surprised by the print so much prettier in person with muted lavender and light green. Lovely with fresh teal.
I got my Sea me Run singlets and shorts yesterday . Agree about mini blushed illusion prettier in person. I actually like unfinished hem and don't mind it on this top. Also liking higher neck cause I also have cleavage and it's nice to have it covered . Very very nice fabric , will be great for hot summer. Now debating which one to keep, Clear mint or Mini blushed illusion, both look good. I'm also keeping Sea Me run shorts in heathered coal ( I think) , they'll be perfect to wear to the pool
I hate high necks in exercise gear. I feel constricted and when I sweat, it feels like the fabric is sucked into the dampness. I also hate gaping arm holes that show bra fat area. I'm not even fat, and these are not the most flattering tops for 90% of folks out there
I'm sure this is a dumb question, but what do you use those Run singlets and tights for, running on the beach, swimming? I'm not a runner so I honestly don't know.
I would buy the singlet if it was on sale. I like the clear mint color for running in the evening on a hot summer night, but I don't love the singlet so would not pay full price.

@ lulu - thanks for the fit comments. I haven't seen this latest batch of swim stuff in person yet.

Sea Me Run Tight Short has a funky fit down unda. Make sure you move a little to see if they're right for you.

Do you know when the water bound hoodie might be online in the US?
