Get the fully lined swim bottoms that don't back down. A wide waistband with a compressive fit that stays in place and full-bottom coverage offer the perfect balance of comfort and style. And the waistband doesn't just smooth your silhouette, it has pockets.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really love the color and length of this swim top. It’s flattering, comfortable, and provides great coverage without feeling too bulky. The bottoms also offer really nice coverage over the booty, which I appreciated, but could have had more coverage over the tummy. It wasn’t as high-waisted as I would have hoped for. I think I may have been a little overzealous with my sizing choice though, and I would probably size up next time for a more comfortable fit overall. Still a great swimsuit and one I’ll definitely continue wearing.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am super happy with these swim bottoms. They fit true to size, and the high waist provides the perfect amount of coverage exactly where I want it. The bottoms are super comfortable and supportive, so I can move around without any digging in. My new favorite pair. Highly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are a great set of swim bottoms. Great fabric and performance. Have spent many days swimming and running around outside in them and have never had an issue. They’re breathable, light and dry after getting wet really quick which is nice. I’ve also worn them playing some beach volleyball after a swim and they were perfect no chaffing like some swimsuits do after they get wet and you try to be active in them outside of water. These aren’t like that at all and you can easily go in and out of water in them without issue or having to deal with chaffing, them constantly riding up or them folding weird at the hip. The fabric and fit is perfect.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wearing these bikini bottoms during lap swims helps me to focus on my swimming as the bottoms are supportive and comfortable. They hold in place very well and don't ride up as I swim. I generally go between medium and large for bikini bottoms (I'm 5'4", 145lbs) and the large size fits me well. Overall the bottoms are a great choice for swimmers who want comfortable supportive swim wear. They're not the most flattering or stylish, but that's not what these bottoms are for.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 5 starts, 5 stars!!! This Nik High Waisted bottom is perfection!! They feels amazing and true to size while also adding a little bit of tightness near the top to hold everything together! The fabric is comfortable and design is impeccable, definitely need them in every color possible because they are just down right special! Would not change a single thing from them!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been really impressed with the Nike Performance Collection swimsuit bottoms. The fit is excellent—true to size with just the right amount of compression to feel secure without being restrictive. They stay in place well I’m swimming laps or just relaxing at the beach, which is a huge plus. The design is clean, modern, and flattering. I appreciate that Nike kept it simple but still stylish, making it easy to pair with different swim tops. The cut offers great coverage while still feeling athletic and streamlined. The fabric feels high-quality and durable, with a soft, smooth texture against the skin. It dries quickly and holds its shape well even after multiple uses in both pool and saltwater. What I like most is the combination of comfort and performance—it really feels like it’s made for active use, not just lounging. If I could change anything, I’d maybe love to see a few more color or pattern options, but overall, these are a fantastic go-to swimsuit bottom.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fit and feel: very comfortable and easy to wear. Design: nothing revolutionary but a classic is always classic. The high waisted design has great tummy coverage. Fabric: soft and good water wicking fabric. Biggest like: the fit and feel I would change: I would pick a smaller size

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For an active woman this is a good suit. The fit is great, holds in place and does not ride around when active with kids or athletics. It can be hard to find flattering bottoms that both look good and function good- and this suit meets both! The material is very durable and did not pick easily, but was comfortable. This suit held everything in place correctly and did not need lots of pulling and adjusting which is a huge plus. The one thing I did not care for was the big nike check on the back in white. It is a nice looking suit and just cheapens the appearance with a big white logo on the back of the bottoms. The simple change of having the logo be monochromatic with black on black would have elevated this suit.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had wanted a new swim suit with more coverage than a standard bikini but preferably 2 pieces as my top and bottom sizing sometimes don't match. The Nike Swim Effortless Essential Women's High Waist Full paired perfectly with the corresponding Tankini to create a great option! I really enjoy the cut of the bottom and the feel of the fabric. It is lightweight and stays that way even when wet. It felt secure as I moved and got in water; not too restrictive and not like it would slip off cuz it was wet or going down a water slide. I very much look forward to being able to enjoy some water fun with these swim bottoms!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These bikini bottoms are ok. I like that they are truly full coverage. They’re listed as high waist, but I do feel the waist could be a bit higher. The bottoms pair well with the tankini.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the Essential High Waist Full Bottom swim item to complete my set, just in time to test for a swim. These fit great and hit at the right spot for my average length torso. I felt comfortable when I was actively swimming and doing activities. These were the perfect fit. I definitely recommend these bottoms.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Loved the fit and feel of these high-waist bathing suit bottoms. They fit comfortably and stayed in place without feeling too tight or restrictive. The high-waisted style was very flattering and provided great tummy coverage and support. The design was simple but stylish, and I appreciated the full coverage in the back because it made me feel comfortable and confident while wearing them. The fabric was soft, stretchy, and comfortable to wear both in and out of the water. It felt durable and held its shape well after wearing. What I liked most was the full coverage and supportive high-waist fit. They were comfortable while still looking cute and flattering. If I could change one thing, I’d maybe make the waistband just a little more snug for extra support as the hot tub jets caused them to roll a bit!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Nike Swim Effortless Essential Women’s High Waist Full Bottoms are a fantastic addition to my swimwear collection. I adore the full coverage these bottoms provide. The thick waistband ensures both comfort and style. The black color, complemented by a modest Nike logo on the back, makes it easy to pair with any swim top. The built-in liner offers extra compression and support. The high-quality material has not pulled or pilled with wear. These bottoms make me feel confident, covered, and comfortable at both the beach and pool.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked the feel of the high quality material along with the color. However, I did not like the fit of the swim bottom. I am curvy in the backside area, and the cut of the bottoms is not appealing. It both looked and felt like I was wearing a pair of my grandmother’s panties. The odd fit had ample coverage yet allowed part of my backside to be exposed in an unflattering manner. I felt self-conscious wearing them and definitely won’t be wearing these in public. I think this swim bottom would look better and be more functional if it was in a boy short cut/style.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Here’s a polished five-star review you can post: The Nike Swim Effortless Essential Women’s High Waist Full Bottom completely exceeded my expectations! The fit is incredibly flattering and comfortable, especially if you like a little extra coverage without sacrificing style. The high-waisted design hugs smoothly without digging in, and it stays securely in place whether you’re swimming, lounging poolside, or being active at the beach. One of the first things I noticed was how soft and high-quality the fabric feels. It has the perfect amount of stretch while still feeling supportive and durable. Even after getting wet, the material remained comfortable and didn’t feel heavy or restrictive. It also dried fairly quickly, which made it ideal for all-day wear. Design-wise, Nike really did an amazing job creating a swim bottom that feels both modern and timeless. The silhouette is sleek, flattering, and confidence-boosting. I especially loved how versatile it is — easy to pair with different swim tops while still giving that clean athletic look Nike is known for. The full coverage in the back is another huge plus because it provides comfort and security without looking overly conservative. What I loved most was how effortless and comfortable these bottoms felt from the moment I put them on. They smooth nicely, offer great coverage, and still manage to feel stylish and sporty. It’s honestly hard to find swim bottoms that check all those boxes at once. If I could change anything, I’d probably just love to see even more color or pattern options because the fit is so good that I’d absolutely purchase multiple pairs. Overall, these are easily five-star worthy. Comfortable, flattering, supportive, and extremely well-made — definitely one of my favorite swim bottoms I’ve owned!
