MEET VILEBREQUIN OCEAN LOVERS - VOICES OF PASSION AND PRESERVATION

07 November 2023 - Collaborations

The oceans provide us with so many things. The things we need to thrive—both physically and mentally. Nobody feels this deeper than the people you’re about to meet.

As certified Ocean Lovers, we're committed to seeking out innovative, lower-impact fibers and processes that don't put any additional strain on marine ecosystems. As of this year, 100% of our men's swimsuits are tailored from recycled fibers, while 93% of overall production is sustainably sourced from organic or recycled fibers.

They are Vilebrequin Ocean Lovers—a global sports community that’s made the ocean home. Through their advocacy and their work with Vilebrequin, we hope to inspire and motivate change. Because we’re all connected to the oceans, collectively. And their future depends on each of us, individually.

Through sharing my cold water swimming journey I really hope to inspire you all to understand not only the importance of connecting with nature in this way but also the importance of protecting our oceans.

XAVI LUCENA

 Xavi Lucena has surfed in some of the most remote places on Earth―and even there, he’s shocked by how much plastic and rubbish he finds. “The ocean gives us so much. The least we can do is keep it clean.”


The ocean begins with each of us. Visit vilebrequin.com to learn how we’ve been cleaning up our act.

Devon Shoreline

Whether she's paddleboarding, wild swimming, or freediving off the UK's South West coastline, for @devonshoreline it's all about "slowing down to appreciate the world beneath the waves."


When did you last stop and contemplate the ocean?
