Orlebar Brown trunks are expensive but you’ll wear them so often they’ll be worth it. They dry out quicker than Colin Farrell and are smart enough to wear straight from the water to the lunch table. As a general rule, shorts should be a third of your body length but there’s currently a trend for shorter styles, so consider the mid-thigh Bulldog style. The darker your skin tone, the bolder the colour to go for. I have a navy pair for the start of the holiday and, once I’ve developed a tan, I move on to these Baywatch-red ones.
