Good fit
This is a great top - However, I've had mine about 1 year and the elastic is now starting to go. Well, it was still worth it for only a years worth - no longer stays in place when active!
good coverage and no fallout
love this top!! Kayaked for 6 hours and didn't offend the kids!!! Good coverage yet can still get some sun!!
Definitely Buy This Top
It is solid and sexy, stays put, and the earthenware is very flattering. My only issue is the padding, which bunches up and looks horrible. I just took mine out, which is easy, through the openings in the front.

Fits perfectly!
Great quality, best swimsuit yet!
great swim top
very comfortable, stays put, and very flattering. i like this suit so much i've purchased it 2 years in a row. i'm not sure how well it would work for bustier women, but for me it's terrific!
Stays Put In The Surf
Makeba Top is fantastic! Stays put in the surf. Over the shoulder and adjustable strings make for a custom and non binding fit. Design works really well for small chest sizes. One small downside: both pads got jumbled & folded in the top after a few hours of surfing, which looks quite funny. Once the bikini is wet the pads become really visible because they are smaller than the fabric triangle. Very easily solved by removing the pads entirely, which I normally do with my swim tops. Can't wait to get more Makeba tops, hopefully you will have more XS's in stock soon!
cute!
For a smaller chest size, this is a very flattering top. and it's great for swimming -- it stays put!
Great Quality poor fit
It's the usual great patagonia workmanship but better for A and B chests
Good for smaller chest
I bought this bikini top because I like the style of the back (crosses straps then hooks through at the sides and ties across the middle). That offers great support. I wear a medium top in everything and I find that this tops seems a bit small. I am an average chest size (36C) and I would feel confident wearing this top doing light activity I in no way would wear this doing anything strenuous for fear of a mishap. The padding is a bit awkward but you can move it around so that is great. I absolutely love the color choices. I have the earthenware and it looks great on my skin tones (fair now but eventually gets tan). All in all a good bikini top but definitely recommend for a smaller bust
Great Top
This is a great swim wear top...totally adjustable so you can fit it exactly to you. Quality material and make
Sexy but solid
It looks great, it feels secure and seems to have a solid build. But it does show a little skin so the modest should proceed with caution. I'm thinking of getting another!
Pretty but limited coverage
It looks good on, tie detail at back is cute and different, seems like it will stay put, and the blue is a great color-- but limited coverage, so it's not for everyone.
Offered in colors: Black, Earthenware, Oceania Blue and Plum. Available sizes, while supplies last, include size medium, size large and size extra large: m, l, xl.
