The verdict

A sky-blue-and-white striped swim short in new-season recycled fabric; a softer take on Sunspel's house navy stripe.

Fit

Drawstring waist with a relaxed, roomy cut through hip and thigh. Stripe sits neatly on soft recycled polyester; expect a comfortable, forgiving fit.

Quality

At £145 GBP, recycled polyester construction is robust and color-stable. Stripe printing and seaming reflect Sunspel's consistent quality across the range.

Price check

Premium pricing for the new-season collection. Fair for Sunspel, though a higher entry than past-season equivalents.

Best for

Shoppers seeking a lighter-colored, striped swim short in a premium-brand package.

Care

Rinse and air dry after saltwater or chlorine use to maintain the sky-blue hue.

What owners report about Sunspel shorts

Third-party coverage of Sunspel's shorts centers on the swim shorts, which reviewers describe as cut to look like tailored chino shorts, in a matte fabric with a fine mesh lining that works from pool to bar. Owners on the brand's verified-review platform call them "expensive but they feel it" and praise the fit and colour, though one owner found even the smallest size too big and had a pair tailored. Brand-level owner feedback is more mixed: several reviewers say pieces run slim and small, and some report shrinkage and dye fading after repeated washes.

Strengths: Reviewers consistently rate the swim shorts' fabric quality and tailored, wear-anywhere styling as matching the high price.
Watch out for: Sizing is the recurring complaint — slim, inconsistent cuts and limited small sizes — and brand-level owners report shrinkage and fading after many washes.
Sizing: Feedback conflicts — brand-level reviewers found Sunspel slim and small ("a large, but it was more like a medium") while one shorts owner found the smallest size too big and had them tailored — so check garment measurements before buying.
