Bather swim shorts, brand available locally from Workshop

Kick sand in others faces this season by bringing some stylish clout to your swim short game

As you brush up on your backyard cricket and beach volleyball skills, why not also invest in a new pair of the undefeated summer staple, beach shorts? Whether you go for designer monograms (looking at you Burberry and Gucci), or go for modern patterns (we see you Saint Laurent), opt for the new, slightly cropped boardshorts in classic colourways for the win.
