Low-Key Swim Shorts

Birdwell Beach Britches Concentrates on Quality, Not Fashion Fads

Birdwell Beach Britches, a brand that has been around since 1961, makes high quality, low-style men’s swim shorts.

Made with Surf Nylon (Surfnyl), a velcro fly, a lace waist tie and a wax pocket, these trunks are no-BS swimwear for the dudes who just love to frolic on the beach. The detail is minimal, there’s no elaborate Hawaii pattern and the best part is that Birdwell Beach Britches’ slogan is “Quality is our Gimmick.”
