Not satisfied

I bought my Hoaka after months & months of wanting one; months of entering instagram giveaways, and months of obsessing over the bikinis that looked so beautiful on Instagram. I still love the companys owner Elisabeth and the girls who represent Hoaka with different body types; but I’ve lost some faith in the company. Once I got my order after weeks of waiting; the bottoms (size large) didn’t even fit over my bumb. The medium top felt like I was trying on a child’s sports bra. So I sent it back and got size XL bottoms, and a large top. Another few weeks and it’s here finally just in time for winter. Yay :( so my Hoaka is finally here and still, both are a tad bit small. So I email the company and ask them how these sizes can be XL and L because they fit super small. And they reply saying “sizes are in junior, not like child but junior” so junior as in teen or tweens. I found this bizzare because I couldn’t find that anywhere in the hoaka website or Instagram page; I wish I had known that before I ordered my hoaka because I would have waited for more size options. I still wear my hoaka but it’s defientely not what I was hoping for. Now I see that Tessa brooks and Erika costell are hoaka representives and in the Bahamas for a hoaka trip. I had loved this company even after the whole bathing suit mishap; but having two horrible girls as ambassadors sent me to start hating Hoaka. The two Instagram stars faked an abuse story including Team 10 & caused a lot of controversy. I personally hate Erika and Tessa, but many people have different views on it. I’ve lost some respect for Hoaka but I still support them, and hope for the best for Elisabeth and her company.

It was good at first...

Il est fort probable que vous connaissez la compagnie Hoaka Swimwear de la jeune entrepreneure originaire de Mirabel Élisabeth Rioux. C'est une compagnie de bikini fait de néoprène qui a commencé à vendre sur son site www.hoakaswimwear.com en avril 2016 et qui fait fureur, c'est le cas de le dire.

Je me suis procurée le Noémie (discontinué, celui sur la photo) en septembre 2016 et j'ai dû échanger le top car il n'était pas conforme à la charte des grandeurs sur laquelle je m'étais fiée.

Je me suis procurée mon deuxième en novembre de la même année, soit le Jones. Il me fait, par contre, le bas du maillot, lorsqu'il est en contacte avec de l'eau, se rempli de cette dernière et gonfle et reste ainsi. J'ai donc du tissus gonflé sur mon maillot. Pour le top, à certains endroit, il a décoloré blanc et mauve à d'autres... bizarre.

Se détaillant à 69$ US, je n'en rachèterai plus, malheureusement.
