SUZANNE

Fit Whisperer

If Suzanne’s not happy with the fit of every single piece of T9 swimwear, then nobody’s sleeping. Armed with a tape measure, a tube of Cherry Bomb lipstick, and The Clash on full blast, she’s been perfecting the science of fit for over 15 years. Her standards are sky-high, her attitude is punk rock, and her swimwear? It fits—and it never quits.

AMI

Print Powerhouse

With nearly two decades of print design under her belt (or 30 years if you count her art school days in India—and we do), Ami is living her dream: crafting bold, joyful prints for T9 swim. She’s fueled by chocolate, hiking highs, and the thrill of spotting her prints in the wild—beach or poolside, it never gets old. She’s skydived, Holi-festival’d in the Himalayas, and Greyhounded across the U.S. after reading Kerouac. Her superpower? She’s up for anything, down to go anywhere—even when her luggage doesn’t make it.

KC

The Boob Scientist

KC’s a mom of two (Leo and Bode), a multi-tasking merchant, and the holder of an unofficial PhD in Boob Science. She’s got the genius behind our sand-proof liners and quick-dry cups. She even cracked the code on secure swim bottom pockets—finally, a safe place for your keys that doesn’t involve your bra. Thanks to KC, you can say goodbye to soggy boobs, sandy butts, and swimsuit malfunctions. She’s got you (and your girls) covered.

JAVI

Functional Rebel

World traveller. Pocket evangelist. Frog fan. Javi’s got range—and six years of designing outdoor apparel to prove it. She’s all about hitting the sweet spot between functional and flattering: adjustable dresses with flair and pockets (because snacks). A certified hike-finisher—even when wildly unprepared (okay, only once).

If it’s unexpected, Javi’s all in—and so are her designs: trail-tested, snack-stashing, frog-figurine friendly.
