The beloved gymnastics brand brings its signature comfort, quality, and confidence-boosting designs to swimwear.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 15, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- In the 1980s, a mom named Donna watched her gymnast daughters practice in ill-fitting, basic leotards and thought, "There has to be a better way to make leotards girls actually want to wear." That moment of inspiration led to Destira– a name representing the power to stretch beyond limits–and, a brand that revolutionized gymnastics apparel with high-quality fabrics, kid-adored designs, and leotards that made young athletes feel confident.
Today, those same daughters—now moms—lead the company with a similar revelation, stretching their expertise into new territory: "There has to be a better way to make swimsuits that last, fit well, and keep kids feeling confident and comfortable." The result? Destira's first-ever swimwear collection, a natural extension of the brand's mastery in stretch fabrics and empowering designs.
Known for movement-friendly, confidence-boosting designs, Destira brings the same precision fit, premium quality, and vibrant prints to swimwear, making its leotards a favorite among young athletes for decades.
"Every child deserves to feel unstoppable—whether they're mastering a new skill in the gym or making a splash at the pool," says Jen Atkinson, CEO of Destira. "We've spent years perfecting that feeling in gymnastics, and now we're bringing that same dedication to swimwear."
