Women wearing Aerie Sparekini™.

We’ve all been there. The car is packed, the playlist is blasting, and you’ve finally reached the water… only to realize your favorite bikini is still hanging on the shower rod at home. *Cue the dramatic sigh.*

At Aerie, we’re all about making sure nothing gets between you and your best day in the water. That’s why we’re introducing the ultimate summer lifesaver: Aerie Sparekini™. It’s cute, it’s comfy, and it’s ready to jump in whenever you are.

Your “In Case of Sun” Emergency Kit

Think of this as the “spare tire” for your wardrobe. We’ve prepackaged a classic, versatile bikini set into a portable, reusable pouch. It’s designed to be the easiest thing you pack (or pick up on the way).

Why you’re going to love it:

  • The Convenience: It’s prepackaged and compact. Keep one in your glove box, your carry-on or your gym bag for those “let’s go to the lake” moments that happen out of nowhere.
  • The #AerieREAL Fit: The fit feels good on you, even when you’re buying it on the fly.

Real Life Happens (And We’ve Got You Covered)

This isn’t just a swimsuit; it’s a solution for those “oops” moments.

  • The “Forgot My Bag” Moment: You’re at a friend’s house and the pool looks too good to pass up.
  • The Luggage Lost-and-Found: Your suitcase is in another time zone, but the hotel hot tub is calling your name.
  • The Last-Minute Invite: Because the best plans are the ones you didn’t see coming.

Pro-Tip: Grab a “Backup Bikini” in a range of colors to match your aesthetic. It’ll match any cover-up or sun hat you already have in the car!

Style it Your Way (From Poolside to Picnic)

The beauty of a backup bikini is its versatility; it’s a blank canvas for your favorite beachwear. To transition from a quick dip to a casual lunch, toss on a sheer oversized button-down for an effortless “undone” look, or wrap a vibrant cover up around your waist to add a pop of color and personality. If you’re heading away from the water, high-waisted linen trousers or a denim skirt turn your bikini top into a chic, heat-wave-ready crop top. With your spare suit, you can mix and match textures, like crochet or silk, without worrying about a clashing print.

The Suit That Solves Everything

Just because it’s a “spare” doesn’t mean we skimped on the soul. Like everything we do, these sets are made with the softest fabrics and a whole lot of love. Plus, the waterproof pouch it comes in is perfect for storing your wet suit after the fun is over, keeping the rest of your bag dry! Ready to be the most prepared person in your friend group?
