Vilebrequin Menswear

Sitting at a Saint Tropez café terrace in 1971, Fred Prysquel sketched out his design for the perfect swimming shorts on the tablecloth. Inspired by brightly dressed vacationers, stylish surroundings and the buzz around Brigitte Bardot, Vilebrequin swimwear was born. A motor racing fan, Prysquel’s swimshorts boast several nods to sporting heritage, named after the French word for crankshaft and made from spinnaker sailcloth, designed for use as boat sails thanks to its unique, quick-drying qualities. Ever-evolving yet classic, this original ‘70s style is still available – look out for the Moorea cut – while modern iterations also include long, short and fitted styles. With vibrant designs for men and boys, ensure a pair of Vilebrequin swimming shorts is in his holiday suitcase.
