Swimming For Everyone

Sometimes, life throws unexpected and challenging curveballs that can significantly impact our lives. Whether in adulthood or childhood, facing these challenges requires support and a deep understanding of how to overcome them.

According to Continence Matters, 1.3 million adult Australians experience some form of bowel incontinence, while 1-3% of children suffer from bowel dysfunction. This life-affecting condition often prevents individuals and children from accessing swimming.

We take swimming very seriously and recognise that professionals worldwide recommend it as a safe and beneficial form of exercise for both able-bodied individuals and those facing physical or mental challenges.

There are numerous barriers to swimming for people with physical special needs, including entry into the water, changing facilities, and a lack of specialist hoist equipment. However, one area that often goes unaddressed is incontinence. This is the greatest barrier to swimming, yet it is the least discussed and one of the easiest to solve.

Incontinence swim products currently on the market, while functional, often either clearly address incontinence issues or lack aesthetic appeal—or, in some cases, both! This can create a barrier to swimming for many teenagers and adults who may feel embarrassed to wear such products.

We believe that form should be as important as function. With this in mind, we have redeveloped our range. While safety has always been our top priority, thanks to our extensive expertise in creating leak-proof swimwear, this time we focused on how the swimwear looks and feels.

Jammer Shorts

The Jammer Shorts are expertly designed with a hidden incontinence pant and a secure waistband, styled as a jammer short. They provide complete protection against bowel incontinence, all while being fashionable and discreet. They are slimline so if you prefer you can wear them under regular swimmers too.

Splash Shorts

Our Splash Shorts are slimline, single-layer neoprene pants designed to be worn under regular swimwear. They feature an updated 3D design that contours to the body, allowing for maximum movement without gaping. Thick, specialised ribbing around the waist and thighs ensures that solids are securely contained.

Splash Jammers

Slightly different from our Jammer Shorts, these neoprene Jammers are made from single-layer neoprene and can be worn as swimwear or underneath board shorts—whichever you prefer. They provide leak protection with a thick waistband and discreet silicone seals hidden inside the legs of the Jammer.

Swimming is one of life’s greatest joys, offering soothing benefits for both body and mind. It should be accessible to everyone, regardless of physical ability, without the embarrassment of swimwear that fails to protect or looks obviously like incontinence pants.

We listened to your needs, and we are proud to introduce these fantastic products to the market.
