I first came across Swim Shady after reading their story in the AFR — loved it. Small family start-up, but the gear blew me away. The shorts look sharp, feel solid, and you can wear them straight from the water to the bar. They’ve nailed that mix of quality and style that’s hard to find, and you can tell it’s built with passion

Outstanding piece of kit, from the beach straight to the bar. The male model could do a few more weights though

Got these for my boyfriend and he loves them! The fabric is super lightweight and quick-drying, and the cut is really flattering - they look great on him. Such a nice touch that they come in their own matching bag, it made them feel extra special and perfect for gifting. Definitely recommend!

Love my shorts, light weight, fast drying and handy pocket held with a magnet so you're not messing around trying to open a rusty zip pocket.
