The Summer Hi Lowrider: Billabongās most reliable full-coverage bottom. Featuring a premium yarn-dyed textured stripe and a secure, mid-rise fit. Built for active days on the lake and maximum comfort. Stay active, stay covered, stay cool. Read more.
The Summer Hi Lowrider is designed for the woman who lives an active lifestyle on the water. While minimal cuts have their place, the Lowrider is the "workhorse" of the Billabong swim line. At Attridge, we love the Full Coverage seat because it offers total peace of mindāno sliding, no riding up, and no adjusting needed, whether youāre diving off the boat or paddleboarding across Coldstream Bay.
The standout feature is the Yarn-Dyed (YD) fabric. This isn't a flat, printed stripe; the color is woven directly into the textured knit. This gives the bottom a thicker, more supportive feel that hides imperfections and remains perfectly opaque, even after a full afternoon of dipping in and out of Okanagan Lake.
Yarn-Dyed Texture: The premium woven stripe offers superior stretch-memory, meaning these bottoms won't get "saggy" or lose their shape in the Vernon heat.
The "Lowrider" Fit: Despite the name, this is a classic mid-rise fit that sits comfortably on the hips. It provides a stable, secure waistband that doesn't pinch or dig in.
Vernon Utility: This is the ultimate "adventure" bottom. Itās tough enough to handle sand, sun, and high-impact water sports while still looking like a high-end fashion piece.

The "Confidence" Factor: This is our #1 recommendation for customers who want a suit they can actually "move" in. Itās the most requested bottom for active lake days.
Staff Approved: Our crew loves the "Summer Hi" series because the fabric is incredibly resilient. It stands up to the sun, sand, and lake water of a full North Okanagan summer without fading.
Style Versatility: The classic stripe pattern is a forever look. It pairs perfectly with the Summer Hi Rio Bandeau or a sporty Rhythm Classic Crop.
Fit Tip: The Lowrider is designed to be true to size for a secure, athletic fit. If you prefer a slightly more "relaxed" feel for lounging on the dock, don't be afraid to size upāthe high-quality elastic will keep them in place regardless!
