Ranging from items I desperately want in my life to things I’ll never be able to afford, I try and include a cross section of everything here in the ‘Things We Want‘ roundup. If you know of a product that you think should be featured in my weekly Gear Guide then feel free to hit me up via email at cass@brobible.com.
Mack Weldon Swim — Lightweight, Soft-Stretch Boardshorts Built For Maximum Comfort (2-Styles)
I’ve been a big fan of Mack Weldon for several years now. In my opinion, they make the best no-show socks and men’s boxer briefs on the market. So when I saw that they were launching a line of boardshorts/swim trunks I was intrigued. I scooped up a pair this week and can tell you that you bros will love these. They are comfortable, fit in all the right ways, and they look pretty f’n stylish. These, my friends, are a great line of boardshorts. There are 2 styles, trunks and boardshorts, so be sure to check both out!
Here’s what Mack Weldon’s VP of Design had to say about this project:
“Mack Weldon Swim was a true team effort. Some of us loved active swimwear, but it never looked so great out of the water. Some of us loved traditional swimwear, but conceded that the fabrics were stuck in the past. Much like we approach other great menswear basics, our goal was to combine all the latest technology with classic style. We started by developing a unique fabric that is ultra quick-dry, lightweight, and has added stretch for performance. Details like bonded seams, zip pockets, and a premium micro-mesh lining take function to the next level. Our innovative Flex Fit waist was created for a clean, modern look — so you can go from ocean, to pool, to poolside drinks with ease.”
