"THE SEA, ONCE IT CASTS ITS SPELL, HOLDS ONE IN ITS NET OF WONDER FOREVER"

SERIOUS ABOUT WATER WEAR
Using the best materials available, we cut suits to fit the female form. Our suits are designed and made by women, for women.
We are very serious about water wear technology. WALLIEN suits are durable, form fitting, warm and have a freedom of movement and comfort that is unparalleled on the women’s market.
FOR WATER WOMEN, BY WATER WOMEN
Our founder, Madeleine Wallien, is a surfer, paddleboarder, sailer and open water swimmer. She is also a designer and a mother of children. She lives in Amsterdam but dreams, like so many of us, of her weekends in the sea.
What we do is simple. We create beautiful and effective water wear that is advanced technically and in style. We will not sell you tired tropes about water sports and surf culture. We will sell you incredible wetsuits that perform and fit like a second skin.
OUR WATER WOMEN
Our tribe of water women practice all kinds of sports and activities in the water. Some are in the water all day, including pro athletes, marine biologists and divers. We sponsor Nikki van Dijk, one of the best female surfers in the world and have designed pieces, like the bikini suit, with her that speak to her needs as a water woman.
A SINCERE RESPECT FOR THE SEA
The water is home, playground, harsh teacher, office, womb, adversary, lover, a friend. Mother Ocean is everything to us. Within our mission is a profound love and respect for the sea.
We want to ensure that ocean life is conserved. It’s the lifeblood that generates half the oxygen on planet and stores half the carbon. We partner with the Blue Marine Foundation, a global lead in marine conservation
