Orlebar Brown “Summer Sport”

Jeremy Jauncey, the man behind Beautiful Destinations (obviously the largest travel community on social media) has been tapped up by Orlebar Brown to be the face of the brand new “Summer Sport” collection.

Designed with a man just like Mr Jauncey in mind, the ability to work out and travel with ease is at the forefront of the collection. As such, the pieces are lightweight, high quality and technically superb. 

Swimwear has always been at the heart of the brand. The Summer Sport collection welcomes the Bulldog Sport design. Previously known as Jack, the best selling swimwear classic has been reimagined in new colour ways of White Ocean, Azure and Lawn and is more flexible, sporty and versatile than the signature Bulldog shorts, crafted from ultra-lightweight nylon with 13% elastane, allowing for a greater freedom of movement. The Setter (a personal favourite) also comes in new colours with its shorter, more retro style. 

Emphasising technical fabrics and innovative design, whilst still focusing on tailoring, the classic tailored T-shirt and Sebastian short sleeve polo have been revised in bio-ceramic fabric which produces far infrared radiation. We know nothing about science but apparently this improves circulation and aids post exercise recovery speed.

Rash guards in both funnel-neck and quarter-zip options, made from UV-resistant fabric with a UPF rating of 50 for optimum skin protection during surfing, with the Larson, ‘the shoe you can swim in’, available in three new colours. 

From £75 and available now at Orlebar Brown.
