Men's Swimwear: Features and Functions
Swimsuits are the essential summer garment, designed to offer performance in the water without sacrificing style out of it. The styles in this selection feature a mid-length, above-the-knee cut, the most versatile and popular cut in contemporary beachwear, suitable for both swimming and beach sports. The modern fit adapts to the body without being too tight, ensuring long-lasting comfort all day long.
Textile materials and technologies
The swimsuits are made of synthetic technical fabrics, primarily 100% polyester, chosen for their superior functional properties compared to natural beachwear materials. These fabrics ensure quick drying, essential for avoiding the feeling of prolonged dampness, resistance to chlorine and salt water, which preserves color and shape over time, and extreme lightness that doesn't weigh you down even when wet. The soft internal mesh, present in most models, offers discreet support and comfort next to the skin, while the durable construction ensures durability even with intensive use.
Functional details and fit
Each swimsuit incorporates practical solutions designed for real-world use: an adjustable waistband to customize the fit and ensure stability during movement, side welt pockets that allow you to carry small items without compromising the clean lines of the garment, and flat seams that reduce chafing. The modern cut balances fit and freedom of movement, making it suitable for a variety of body types and style preferences.
Fantasies and style
The collection offers two distinct aesthetic approaches. On one hand, exclusive patterns designed specifically for the Italian market, with original patterns and color palettes ranging from earthy tones to vibrant hues. On the other, motifs inspired by Mediterranean culture: wasps, daisies, majolica, coral, starfish—iconic elements of the Italian summer reinterpreted with a contemporary twist. Both approaches enhance personality without being overbearing, maintaining versatility of use.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the ideal length for a men's swimsuit?
The above-the-knee length, found in all styles in this collection, represents the perfect balance between freedom of movement, comfort, and versatility. Suitable for both swimming and beach sports.
How do you wash polyester swimsuits?
Hand wash or machine wash at 30°C on a delicate cycle, using a small amount of detergent. Always rinse after use in the sea or pool to remove salt and chlorine. Avoid tumble drying and excessive wringing; dry in the shade to preserve color and elasticity.
Why is polyester preferable to cotton for swimsuits?
Polyester dries much faster, doesn't weigh down with water, retains its shape even after numerous washes, and is more resistant to chlorine and salt. Cotton, while comfortable, absorbs water, dries slowly, and tends to lose its shape.
Is the inner retina necessary?
The internal mesh offers discreet support and greater comfort, preventing see-through and direct rubbing of the outer fabric against the skin. It's not essential, but it significantly improves the wearing experience, especially for dynamic activities.
How to choose the right size for a swimsuit?
Swimsuits with an adjustable drawstring waist offer greater adaptability. Generally, choose your usual size for pants. The modern fit shouldn't be too tight, but it shouldn't be too loose either, to ensure stability in the water.
Do bright colors fade easily?
Technical polyester fabrics retain their colors well when cared for properly: always rinse after use, wash at low temperatures, and dry in the shade. Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight when wet and contact with rough surfaces that can damage the fibers.
