Flow With the Current. Rise Above It.
Two koi fish swim in opposite directions through dense lotus blooms and swirling waves — a timeless symbol of perseverance, strength, and good fortune, now rendered across both sleeves of the Koi Rising Rash Guard.
Muted teal, burnt orange, and earthy amber with bold black ink linework on a clean white body. Equal parts wearable art and performance gear. Whether you're paddling out at dawn or just living with intention, this one carries meaning.

The Symbolism
In Japanese culture, koi swimming upstream represent perseverance and determination. Two koi swimming in opposite directions — as in this design — symbolize the balance of opposing forces: strength and flow, ambition and acceptance. Wear it as a reminder.
Built For
Surfing, paddleboarding, swimming, beach volleyball, gym training, and any activity where you want UPF sun protection without sacrificing style. The watercolour tattoo sleeve design makes it equally at home in the water, at the gym, or at a festival.
How to Wear It
Pair with white or black board shorts to let the koi sleeve art take centre stage. The slim fit and longer hem keep it locked in place during high-movement activities.
Size tip: This garment runs slim and fitted. Size up for a more relaxed fit. Rinse thoroughly after each use to preserve the print.
