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 swimshort. 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.
Rio
Our best-selling Rio fit is purpose built for versatility and movement in homage to to our muse city. 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 beer. Available in both print and block colours it’s clear why sport is our most-loved style.
Porto
Looking for something slightly smarter? Our Porto fit trunks have a handsomely tapered fly-zip and button front-closure, but an elasticated back that maintains some Carioca ease. Just as quick-drying as the sportier styles, 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.
Santos
These longer-line 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 is for you. Classically cut men’s shorts with adjustable side straps, a snap-button and zip-fly, our Cabo swim short looks more like a luxurious pair of shorts than trunks. Suitable for the beach, made for the bar.
