It might not be the first name that comes to mind when you think of the beach (or the pool), but J. Crew has always had a strong selection of swimwear.
Colorful but not flashy, and available in multiple fits — from mid-thigh to hitting right above the knee — these are elevated trunks that can double as out-of-water shorts during your more casual sunny day adventures.
A few favorites on J. Crew’s site, which offers both an in-house brand and curated selections:
Onia Calder 7.5”
Above-the-knee board shorts that closely resemble chino shorts.
6” Swim Trunk
Available in pink or blue floral, this slim-fit trunks dry fast and wick away moisture.
9” Stretch Board Short
A stretchy, eco-friendly take on surfer shorts that utilized 65 recycled nylon.
Fair Harbor Nautilus Board Short
We’ve written about our love of this swimwear brand before, these quick-dry board shorts are made with fabric made from recycled plastic bottles.
J.Crew Always
A sailing print and oarsman logo based on some old-school styles from the J.Crew vaults.
