Made from upcycled plastic bottles found in the Mediterranean Sea. This new material, which is incredibly soft, perfectly captures the richness of Arrels Barcelona prints.
Arrels Barcelona donates 1€ for every swim short we sell to Surfrider Foundation Europe, an international foundation that works to protect our oceans, preserve our coasts, ensure our beaches are clean and accessible, and keep plastic from polluting our waterways.
This garment has been transported by road.
Handmade in Portugal

When we asked him to design a print based on what summer means to him, he came up with a pattern inspired by the Slim Aarons photographs that capture the glamour of summer. Dolce Vita anyone? Do join us.

Picture a childhood travelling to and from motorsport circuits. Alan’s father worked designing racing cars and this British artist grew up sketching the glitz and glamour of Formula One roadshows from the backseat of his family’s car. Alan’s vibrant and vivacious illustrations have won him collaborations with Coca Cola, London Fashion Week, Tag Heuer Watches, Porsche, the Tour De France, and Grey Goose Vodka, to name a few.
