Men's Merino Wool Short Swim Shorts – Black

Why Merino Wool Swim Shorts

Men's short swim shorts with a vintage cut, built from 98% merino wool and 2% elastane. Inspired by retro European swimwear silhouettes — shorter inseam, clean lines, no bulk. While the rest of the industry wraps you in recycled plastic, these natural fiber swim trunks deliver real performance without polyester, nylon, or PFAS chemicals against your skin.

The outer shell is 98% merino wool, 2% elastane for stretch. The built-in support pouch? 100% merino wool. No elastane, no synthetic, no plastic mesh. The drawstring is 100% recycled cotton with metal aglets. Because every component should earn its place.

The Problem with Synthetic Swim Shorts

An ASU study confirmed that synthetic swimwear caused an eightfold spike in microplastic levels in water during recreational hours. Your skin is your largest organ — and conventional swim shorts press polyester, nylon, and PFAS chemicals directly against it. Recycled polyester is still polyester. Recycled nylon is still nylon. We chose a different path entirely.
