Left on Friday: Designed for Sport. Destined for Fun.
Meet Shannon and Laura, the founders of Left on Friday;
Left on Friday is a sporty swim brand, founded and designed in Canada, and manufactured in California and Taiwan.
Women, athletes, enthusiasts of life, lovers of adventure (and margaritas). Shannon & Laura met at Lululemon where they both worked for 11+ years on the product team. Shannon, the former VP of Women’s Design, created the women’s run line, which includes the famous Speed Short and Swiftly Tech. Laura led the Speed to Market team, where she created the Free to Be Bra *Wild, Jet Crop and Love Tee….#NBD. Those were good times…
On a cool evening while hot tubbing in Vancouver, BC and catching up about their most recent surf and kiteboarding trips (probably drinking margaritas), the two product-loving athletes (naturally) got to talking about their frustrations with their swimsuits. They were tired of their swim gear letting them down in every way. They had the surf suit, the lap suit, the hot tub suit, but not one suit that they loved, looked good in, and that could stand up to all their adventures.
They couldn’t find it, so they built it. One suit they could depend on (and love) from pool to play, and to feel powerful in.
Smoothing Dream Fabric™
Left on Friday uses Smoothing Dream Fabric™ from Italy. They are using it for a few very specific and awesome reasons. You can count on this fabric to be compressive (when wet & dry) and for smoothing coverage and feels like b-u-t-t-e-r on the body. It will hold up to sunny conditions without fading and handle that chlorine to salt water and even hot tub life. And it’s snag resistant too, because sometimes a girl has to sit on the pool deck - right?
Insanely Comfortable Fit™
Left on Friday all about Insanely Comfortable Fit™. At LOF, they're leveraging their years of design expertise to ensure straps stay put, seams don’t rub, suits don’t dig, and the fit makes you feel like a superhero. They have paired their fabric with super soft threads and long-lasting elastics, and reinforced all the stress points. These are quite possibly the most comfortable suits on the planet.
Epic Good Times™
Whatever that may be for you. You can do it all in one suit. Surf, swim, drink margaritas, waterski, build sand castles, chase your kids, play bocce ball, bbq...
