Boneswimmer swimwear takes a body built like a beast
A College Team swimsuit needs more than an athlete. It needs the physique. "Fits the role" could be its motto.
Through the team banter, the Boneswimmer prints and colours push their way to the front: bright primary colours set against each other. The graphics recall the simple, wickedly funny line of the 1960s and 70s Hanna-Barbera cartoons.
The colours come straight from afternoons in front of the TV watching Wacky Races, when every episode was more absurd than the last and Muttley yelled "medal! medal!" with the same fury a coach yells "oooh oooh oooh" from the poolside.
The graphics borrow exactly that look: bold strokes, clean lines, the stylised faces of early cartoons.
Then the soundtrack kicks in. Every team has a chant, and College Team picked the only one that can turn a pool into a pop Mexican wave. The bell rings. Lockers slam. Britney Spears: "…baby one more time".
You get in the water in your swimsuit with the conviction of someone heading for the biggest night of the campus year.
Every print in the Boneswimmer College Team line
This is what College Team is really about:
the over-the-top joy of after school,
the colourful buzz of vintage cartoons,
the sense of belonging that passes from one swimsuit to the next like a team secret.
And together is always stronger.
FLY – Butterfly
The Fly shark looks like a distant cousin of Muttley who has been hitting the gym and wants the medal before he has even dived in.
He has the look of a campus superstar: square jaw, haughty fin and a snooty attitude that says "I always win".
BREAST – Breaststroke
The Breast frog is the amphibian version of a college linebacker: XXL. Huge pecs, a dorm-party grin and a way of stepping onto the block that recalls Hanna-Barbera characters pretending to be serious.
He is a one-frog riot: he jumps, shows off, asks for applause and gets it.
FREE – Freestyle
The Free tiger is a true 1960s cartoon diva: perfect stripes, a feline Penelope Pitstop pose and the brazen confidence of someone crossing campus sure the spotlight is following her.
She does not walk: she struts. She does not push off: she bolts. She does not swim: she roars through the chlorine.
BACK – Backstroke
Back carries a panther that looks lifted straight from one of those absurd Wacky Races moments, when animals teamed up for no reason at all.
Her style is simple: floats like a philosopher, turns like a missile, smiles like a vintage cartoon that knows full well it has the upper hand.
MEDLEY – Individual medley
Medley turns up with a muscly mastiff who wants to be the official campus mascot: hefty, proud and as sure of himself as the Hanna-Barbera character who gets in the pool knowing everyone fears him.
He holds the four strokes together the way a model student holds four exams together, with a social life wrecked by too many training sessions.
