Floating Swimwear
The idea for a floating bathing suit was born in the late 1970s, when Don Royer’s mother designed and stitched the first swimsuits with floatation devices inside for her young grandchildren who enjoyed spending summers with her at the neighborhood pool.
Pretty soon, all the children in the neighborhood wanted their own suits and she was prompted to pursue a patent on her invention. The patent was granted six years later, but the suits weren’t holding water, so to speak, with buyers.
In 1992, Don Royer took the helm at Floating Swimwear Inc., leaving behind his construction career to steer the family business. A few months later, Floating Swimwear began manufacturing swimsuits at its current Wichita facility and consumers began to take notice.
Today, more than 100 employees work to bring Floating Swimwear™ to young swimmers across the country. Floating Swimwear Inc., is not only an innovator, they are a leader. They design suits based on trends in the fashion industry and what the customers want.
They take pride in their quality, stand behind their workmanship and promise you’ll love the products.
