Best Islamic Swimsuit! April 22, 2009 Reviewer: Shazia Imam from Herndon, VA, USA   I have tried on several different "Islamic" swimsuits and appreciate this one the most!  It is very lightweight and dries quickly.  I also appreciate all the improvements that Splashgear has recently made to continue making even better suits.  Very functional and practical.  Thanks for creating this line!

Problem-solving swimwear! February 22, 2009 Reviewer: Ellie from Fullerton, CA, USA   The Island shirt dries very quickly and has solved my problem of being in a swimsuit in front of people. It and the pants are the most liberating purchase I've ever made. Was this review helpful to you?

Modest swimwear for Muslim women January 18, 2009 Reviewer: Mahrukh from Ohio, USA   I am a Muslim woman who has to accompany her sons to swim lessons.  I needed a swim suit that would not show my body.  It should not be skin-tight or see-through.  The Splashgear Island shirt is excellent for this purpose.  I just love it.  It is worth the price.  Even when wet, it does not cling to your body, nor is it see-through.  I recommend this item for any Muslim lady who wants to swim in a mixed pool or on the beach on vacation.

I tried the rest, now I have the best October 11, 2008 Reviewer: Nancy Serag from Upland, CA, USA   My name is Nancy and I LOVE my Splashgear suit! I've finally been able to swim with my kids and enjoy the summer water activities! I've tried the other "hijabi" suits out there, and none other compares to your design and comfort. We recently went to Hawaii and I wore it on the beach and at the resort--I blended right in and was completely comfortable being covered up...fashionably! Thanks so much!

Splashgear: It's not just for Muslims October 11, 2008 Reviewer: Margaret Pangert from Upper Saddle River, NJ, USA   I'm 58 years old and it's been years since I've swum all day long in the ocean and pool!  I feel so un-selfconscious, warm, and protected from the sun!  Thank you, Splashgear!

Thank you! December 1, 2007 Reviewer: Laila Alabidi from Southfields, Greater London, England   I finally got around to testing the Splashgear suit at the local pool in London.  It is great!  Very, very easy to swim in.  PLUS: I did not feel self-conscious while exiting the water--the outfit is very modest.  It does add extra resistance when doing aqua aerobics, but that's a good thing in my book.  :-) Thanks again!

SubhanAllah! (Glory be to God!) July 15, 2007 Reviewer: Maia Birchmoon from Chicago , IL, USA   Everything was perfect!  The pieces I ordered are just as gorgeous in person as they appear on the website, they arrived lightning fast, and they fit, feel, and look fabulous.  The service is incredibly fast--I emailed a question and had a complete response just an hour or so later.  The price (especially with the current sale) seems very reasonable.  I used to LIVE at the pool with my two little boys, until I started covering.  This year, my boys kept begging to go swimming, my little guy even said he wanted me to "go back to regular [not dressing modestly]" so we could swim.  They are too young for me to sit out and just watch them.  So I assembled a "do-it-yourself suit" from other sportswear.  The park officials didn't accept it without a bit of an argument, plus it clung to my body when wet, kept ballooning in the water, and got very heavy with water. The Splashgear suit is everything it is promised to be: truly full coverage and ultra-comfortable, it does NOT balloon out or get heavy in the water, and it dries lightning-quick.  The Resort pants don't cling AT ALL, and the Island Shirt just hangs from the bust, no worse than most tops.  Plus, it is clearly a swimsuit, so there can't really be any objection (and there wasn't today at the pool).  I haven't tried the La Femme pants yet, and I just ordered a hood today.  The high collar of the shirt will hold the ends of a headscarf or other hijab in place, but the water pulls the scarf back and air balloons under it, so the Splashgear hood will surely work much better.  Honestly, the pleasure of swimming comfortably without the guilt of compromising modesty is ENORMOUS!  I wouldn't care if the suit was boring or even ugly, but it is instead really lovely and stylish, plus it clearly looks like a swimsuit. Several sisters sitting poolside or wearing T-shirts over regular suits asked me where to get one.  Of course, I told them where.  It isn't just a swim suit--it is freedom, exercise, and a lesson for my kids and everyone else that hijab isn't limiting, it is liberating.  JazakAllah!
