Are Boden swimsuits worth the price?

At £60 - £48 with the discount they offer- I would hope for it to last at least 5 years and not fade or go thin. Are they good or are they just as overpriced as most other items in the catalogue? I think the clothes look nice but seem insanely expensive.
But I am after a good one-piece swimsuit where the cups don't go all lumpy and out of shape like my Zoggs ones.

I've just bought a tankini from them, with the 25% discount they were offering recently, together with an also reduced stripy t-shirt. I liked the colour choices they had, and the opportunities to mix and match - I have a polka dotted top and plain bikini bottoms, and they work together well.
Obviously don't know how they'll wear, but the tankini is nice and thick, and the t-shirt seems of decent quality, and really long. I would be hoping to wear both for several years, but only time will tell!

I agree Maudes they look lovely in the catalogue so hopefully they'll last well too for the price.

I have 2 that have lasted 4 years so far and look like new. I don’t swim every day/week mins, more for holidays

I don't have a swimsuit but have their rash vests which I wear with their bikini bottoms and they've been fab. Wash so well. Agree that it is pricey though.

No there’s a red Boden swimsuit for£70 recommended on MN which is the same style as one I got from Asda last year for £12 and the quality is great. I never buy expensive swimsuits as they only last a year at most if you swim Regularly in chlorinated water

I could keep my lumpy Zoggs for the chlorine and invest in a nice one for holidays. Thanks All!
