Maybe you’ll never look as good as Daniel Craig (or, for that matter, Ursula Andress) walking out of the ocean.

But you can certainly evoke 007’s signature style with some colorfully evocative James Bond trunks, new from the tailored beachwear experts at Orlebar Brown. These mid-length “Bulldog” swim shorts feature images, illustrations and artwork directly inspired by seafaring adventures from classic James Bond films like Dr. NoYou Only Live TwiceLive and Let Die and (ha) Thunderball.

Made from quick-drying polyester, the trunks feature adjustable side fasteners, a snap and zipper enclosure, mesh lining and a very Connery-esque 6″ inseam. The Bond shorts retail for $395, and you can claim any pair in the collection right here.
