Swagger’s ‘[Daydream](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/summer-daydream)’ line is the latest offering from the successful [Harajuku](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beams-x-hoka-bondi-7) brand. The Swagger ‘Daydream’ collection maintains its brilliant audacity that they are known for, but there are some more toned-down silhouettes.

The entire line looks as if they had combined the wardrobe of an American gangster with [relaxed fashions of surfer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digawel-springsummer-2026). The combination of the two different styles makes their ‘Daydream’ line look edgy yet comfortable. So, if you have ever wondered how a surfing gangster would like, check out the gallery above.
