I got this to go with another COCOship bikini that has ruffle sleeves thinking it would be a bit more comfortable for actual activity. Its really well constructed. It has thick fabric and lays nicely on the body. It is a bit more practical for swimming than the other top, but I won't be playing volleyball in it anytime soon. There is barely any support even with the halter strap. It is a great lounge too, though, and Im glad I purchased it!
