27 Men’s Swimming Trunks To Pack This Holiday Season
From cool pastels to quirky prints and classic stripes for the wallflowers out there, if you’re in the market for a pair of men’s swimming trunks this summer, we’ve got you covered…
Whether you’re sipping Aperol at the beach clubs or Ibiza, taking a family trip to the Amalfi coast or praying for a heatwave so you can make the most of London’s lidos, we have your perfect pair.
There are plenty of styles to choose from, as well as budgets, and the high street is a great place to start. Marks & Spencer’s years of creating highly approved undies have undoubtedly helped their swimwear ranges too, with myriad styles that are flattering and functional. We love the pink seersucker striped pair that come with Quick Dry technology – ideal if you want to head from pool to bar in quick succession.
Orlebar Brown does great sober swim shorts, from their tailoring-inspired cuts to classic hues.
For something a little more fashion-led, the Scandi high street stores are where it’s at. Head to COS and ARKET for trunks in bolder shades like cool peppermint – great paired with a white tee when not taking a dip – and bright green to pair with this season’s on-trend Cuban shirt in soft cream or rich brown.
If you’re looking to invest, however, there are plenty of brands doing really cool things in the swimwear department. Check our OAS for the best prints, from Matisse-style blue waves to bohemian-esque scarf prints. For summer style with a conscience, Love Brand is a certified B-Corp label and donates a percentage of profits to wildlife conservation projects, that help wild elephants and other endangered species.
If you don’t want to make too much of a statement this summer, Orlebar Brown does great sober swim shorts, from their tailoring-inspired cuts to classic hues. Made from 100% recycled fabric, they come with signature side fasteners allowing for the perfect fit. And the finish feels substantial, making them a great option to wear as shorts with a white vest and open linen shirt.
