Better made Swim trunks

Outfit-Narrative-Better-Made-Swimwear-trunks

Most people probably don’t think about swimwear until it comes to packing their bags for summer vacation. In this article I will talk about better options when it comes to swim trunks or shorts. With that I mean timeless design with better quality and also better fit. Something that should last you a lifetime considering how many days a year you use it. I prefer swim trunks that are not to loose and not too long - I prefer aroud mid thigh length. When it comes to colours and patterns, and I always point this out, it is a personal choice, but if you want to play it safe, you will never go wrong with navy, red or yellow.


Ripa Ripa

Inspired by the style of the Mediterranean and the Italian sixties, these swim shorts have been redesigned for a better fit, capturing the spirit of an Italian summer. 

Working with a team of tailors, the company improved the classic swimsuit. They made the inseam longer and the leg opening slightly smaller, resulting in a straight and elegant fit.

The company values quality over quantity, believing in owning one excellent, well-made item rather than many mass-produced products.
