As a pillar of beach-side living, swimwear is, naturally, a highly valued category for FRESCOBOL CARIOCA. After all, it is dawning a pair of our shorts that one can best enjoy a game of frescobol on the shores of wherever it is they may summer.
For those familiar with that villa to beach, beach to bar (and back again) drift, one knows the importance of a versatile swim short. An outfit all in themselves, our swim trunks are designed to serve a purpose which they so often endeavour beyond.
Whether for athletic or lounging purposes, we are bound to have a swim short for every type of banhista. Get to know each of our styles and figure out which one suits your seaside routine
Sport
Our best-selling Sport fit is purpose built for versatility and movement. Cool and casual, the elasticated waist and quick-drying fabric are as primed for an energetic game of frescobol as they are for a post-swim beach refreshment. Bestsellers Rio and Salvador are cut for this fit, available in both print and block colours, it’s clear why this is our most-loved style.
Classic
Looking for something slightly smarter? Our Porto trunks feature the Classic fit; featuring a handsomely tapered fly-zip and button front-closure, and an elasticated back that maintains some Carioca ease. Just as quick-drying as the sportier styles, the Classic fit can put you through your paces in the pool and keep you cool over lunch.
Sunga
A bold Brazilian hero piece. The sense of freedom the Sunga bestows on the wearer is hard to find in another style. From a spirited swim and a quick game of frescobol to a late afternoon tan top-up, the Sunga signifies the confidence and carefree attitude of the Carioca. Truly an outfit in its own right.
Board
These longer-line Santos shorts offer a more relaxed-fit swim option, in a typical board short shape inspired by surfing. Similarly quick-drying and with an elasticated waist, our Santos shorts come in a range of bespoke prints so you can stand out on the waves and in the bar. You’ll want to wear nothing else.
Cabo
If you just want a style that simply doesn’t look like a swim short, our Tailored fit Cabo is for you. Traditionally cut men’s shorts with adjustable side straps, a snap-button and zip-fly, our Cabo swim shorts look more like a luxurious pair of shorts than trunks. Suitable for the beach, made for the bar.
