Meet Grace 

Old-school charm meets modern day comfort with our Grace swim shorts. Sporting a high-waisted, mini-length design, Grace lets you swim, sweat, strut and splash with ease. Thanks to figure-flattering princess seams and sun-smart UPF 50+ fabric, Grace is perfect for sun-drenched moments and all-day wear — from pilates to poolside hangs.

Sheila sizes by your body, not by the label on your last swimsuit. That's deliberate — measuring against our size guide is the most reliable way to land your best fit.

Our swimsuits are built to be supportive and comfortable. Between two sizes? Size down for a snug, compressive feel. Size up for a relaxed fit with room to move.

Care

Swimming in chlorine? Go for Black Sand. Chlorine fades vivid colours over time — no matter how good the colourfastness or fabric — so darker holds up best in the pool. Salt or fresh water? Any colour's fair game.

Then keep your suit at its best:

  • Wash before use
  • Wash with similar colours
  • Hand wash or gentle machine wash in cold water
  • Dry flat in shade
  • Avoid rough surfaces
  • Avoid high levels of chlorine
  • Do not bleach
  • Do not tumble dry

Composition

Our recycled nylon starts as waste — fishing nets, carpets, abandoned textiles and plastic — that would otherwise pollute the planet. It's sorted, cleaned and regenerated into new fibre under the Global Recycled Standard.

  • Fabric UPF Rating 50+
  • Main: 75% Recycled Nylon, 25% Elastane
  • Lining: 80% Recycled Nylon, 20% Elastane
  • 100% GRS Certified Recycled Nylon

    Paired the shorts with the longer ted top. Love it. Not too much skin in between which is what I wanted. Would love to see a matching skirt or cover

    GRACE MINI SWIM SHORT - SAPPHIRE MIST
    Rated 5 out of 5 stars
    Love all my Sheila suits

    I have the Mina one piece in golden hour, the sapphire Nellie scoop bikini top and Grace mini swim short, plus the hot pink haze ash cropped rash guard and mid swim short. I love them all. They fit great. I was worried the mini short would be too short, but I had great coverage. Love the quality and colors of the suits.

    GRACE MINI SWIM SHORT - HOT PINK HAZE
    Rated 4 out of 5 stars
    Great swim short

    Very comfortable and a great fit.

    Feel like it runs slightly larger than expected and the bright pink color bleeds a bit…even after wearing and rinsing a few times, although with time it seems to be doing so less vivaciously.

    I’m petite so the waist coverage was more than enough. Love the colors and the material weight is uniquely substantial for a swimsuit. I bought the top as well. I’ll be using for water sports in chlorine and sea water so hopefully they’ll last a while.
