Wallien

Wallien at Behind The Pines Amsterdam

Wallien at Behind The Pines Amsterdam brings together technical swimwear, surf-inspired layers and clean, modern silhouettes for days in and around the water. The collection is built for movement, with fabrics and fits that work for surf sessions, summer travel and everyday wear in the city.

Technical swimwear and versatile layers for active days

Wallien focuses on pieces that feel considered rather than overdesigned. Supportive fits, quick-drying materials and stretch where it matters make the collection easy to wear before, during and after time in the water. It is a strong fit for anyone looking for functional surfwear and swimwear that also works outside the beach setting.

At Behind The Pines, we look for brands that balance performance, comfort and longevity. Wallien fits that approach well. The collection is suited to active use, but it does not lose sight of everyday practicality. That means pieces you can wear with confidence on a surf trip, on a bike ride through Amsterdam, or during a warm day by the canal.

Materials and construction

Wallien uses fabrics that are chosen for comfort, stretch and drying speed. In water-focused pieces, that usually means secure support, good shape retention and freedom of movement. For layering pieces, the emphasis stays on lightness and ease of wear, so they sit well over swimwear and pack easily for travel.

If you are comparing options across our surf clothing and wetsuits collections, Wallien sits in the space where performance and clean style meet. It is useful for customers who want technical function without moving into heavy, highly specialised gear.

How to choose the right Wallien piece

Start with how you plan to use it. For water sports, choose pieces with enough hold and coverage for movement and repeated use. For travel and everyday wear, look at fit, layering potential and how the fabric behaves when worn outside the water. If you like a closer fit, pay attention to sizing and support. If you prefer something more relaxed, choose pieces that allow a little more room through the body without losing shape.

For broader wardrobe use, Wallien works well with other summer and surf categories such as board shorts, surf shirts and lycras and ponchos and towels. That makes it easy to build a kit that covers the session and everything after it.

Made for water, travel and city wear

Wallien fits naturally into a lifestyle that moves between the coast and the city. In Amsterdam, that matters. Pieces need to handle a bike ride, a quick change of weather and a day that starts with water and ends somewhere else entirely. The collection is compact, practical and easy to integrate into an active wardrobe.

It also pairs well with travel-focused gear from bags and accessories, especially if you want to keep your kit simple and organised. For customers building out a summer setup, Wallien offers a clean base without unnecessary bulk.

Why choose Wallien at Behind The Pines?

We select brands based on product quality, fit and real-world use. Wallien earns a place in the range because it delivers reliable performance in pieces that are easy to wear and easy to style. The collection is not about excess. It is about well-made items that do their job and hold up over time.

Our team can help with sizing, support levels and how each piece fits into your existing kit. If you are comparing layers or planning a trip, our wider guidance on wetsuit fit and use and surfboard basics can also help you choose with more confidence.

Frequently asked questions

Is Wallien true to size?

Most customers should start with their usual size. If you prefer a closer, more supportive fit for water use, stay true to size. If you want a little more room for layering or relaxed wear, check the product measurements before ordering.

Is Wallien suitable for surfing?

Yes. The collection is designed with movement, support and quick drying in mind, which makes it suitable for surf sessions and other water activities.

Can I wear Wallien outside the beach?

Yes. Many pieces are minimal enough to wear as part of a casual summer outfit, especially when paired with shorts, shirts or lightweight layers.

How do I care for Wallien swimwear?

Rinse it in fresh water after use, avoid harsh detergent and let it air dry away from direct heat. That helps the fabric keep its shape and feel.

What should I wear with Wallien pieces for travel?

Keep it simple with easy layers, sandals, a towel and a compact bag. Wallien works well with practical summer staples that pack down small.
