Quick answer
The Clove Sport Thong and Java Sport Thong are identical in design and performance—the only difference is the color. Choose Clove for a soft, neutral beige that blends with light workout wear, or Java for a rich, dark brown that pairs well with deeper tones.
Same construction, different look
Both the Clove and Java Sport Thongs share the same smooth, stretchy fabric and bonded waistband that stays put during squats, lunges, or any movement. The catalog confirms they are built identically, so your choice comes down to which color complements your activewear collection.
If you prefer a barely-there look under white or pastel leggings, Clove is your match. If you want a darker shade that resists showing through light fabrics and matches black or navy bottoms, Java is the way to go.
