Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our authentic Brazilian beachwear.

How do I determine the right size for my sunga?

Our sungas follow traditional Brazilian sizing, which tends to be more form-fitting. We recommend checking our detailed Size Guide and measuring your waist. If you are between sizes, we suggest sizing up for a more comfortable fit.

What is the difference between a 'Classic' and 'Side-Cut' sunga?

The Classic sunga features a wider side seam (approximately 4-5 inches) for more coverage, while the Side-Cut or 'Brief' style has a narrower side (approximately 2-3 inches) for a more athletic, high-cut look.

Do you offer international shipping?

Yes, we ship CA-RIO-CA products worldwide. Shipping costs and delivery times vary by destination and are calculated at checkout. Please note that international orders may be subject to local customs duties.

What is your return and exchange policy?

We accept returns and exchanges within 30 days of delivery, provided the item is in its original condition with all tags and the hygienic liner intact. For sanitary reasons, we cannot accept returns on swimwear that has been worn or washed.

How should I care for my CA-RIO-CA swimwear?

To preserve the vibrancy of the prints and the elasticity of the fabric, we recommend rinsing your sunga in cold fresh water after every use. Hand wash with mild soap and air dry in the shade. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying.

Are your products actually made in Brazil?

Yes, every piece of CA-RIO-CA Sunga Co. swimwear is designed and handcrafted in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, using high-quality local materials to ensure an authentic Carioca experience.
