Swedish brand, NIKBEN, was launched in 2013 with the debut of their first collection. The aim was to bring new life to swim shorts with the brand’s vibrant and quirky designs.

Founded by Nicklas Abrahamsson and Benjamin Lega – who crossed paths in Spain – the brand “sells dreams of summer, sun and happy moments”, not just your average swimwear. This aesthetic can be seen in their campaigns which – while often stylised – evoke a sense of cheekiness and fun.

Made with and printed on quick drying premium polyester, the swim shorts are cut in a retro silhouette and finished with a velcro-fastening back pocket. These swimwear are the perfect shorts for guys who want something different, as well as go from beach to bar.

NIKBEN’s latest collection, “Tropicania”, is a tribute to the mastery of life and happiness. Consisting of pastel colours and unexpected prints like fun-loving animals and food, the SS17 collection conjures up tropical spirit and pleasure.

NIKBEN is stocked at sought-after retailers like Nordstrom, Selfridges and Harrolds and at less than 95 Euro, this is the swimwear brand pushing the mundaneness out of life.
