Like, would you?
Who doesn’t love an expertly designed pair of surf trunks? The right length, a silhouette that doesn’t balloon, materials of soft cotton or nylon that smooch the hams.
What’s the most you’ve paid for a pair of trunks? A c-note? Two or three hundred for a pair of Orlebar Browns? I live in the things and usually consider no price too outrageous for something that’ll carry you through a summer.
But would you ever consider paying $725, which is the suggested retail price of these trunks from the French house Saint Laurent? These polyester and cotton trunks are from the brand’s “Surf Sound Collection” and are available for pre-order with a late February.
What does nearly a thousand dollars buy? The details are extensive. A mesh lining, a button fly, a waistband coin pocket and “a back loop with Saint Laurent Surf Signature engraved metal bead.”
If you find yourself intoxicated by the collection, you might like the $520 flip-flops.
A surf themed jacket for $3680?
Or a surf and skateboard pendant necklace for $705.
A log for $11,000?
Maybe a $310 trucker hat?
Of course, your pals at BeachGrit live partly by the motto that good design shouldn’t cost the earth. And, so, on sale very soon, is our new batch of surf trunks. All the features of a Saint Laurent trunk but for $US65, posted anywhere in the world!
Coming next week!
