Planting seaweed for every short sold. Restoring marine ecosystems

Description

At Blauw, we believe style and sustainability should go hand in hand, which is why we’ve created recycled swim shorts that don’t compromise on either. Each pair begins as ocean plastic, collected from the water and processed into high-quality yarn that’s both durable and comfortable against your skin.

True Impact

And when we say recycled swim shorts, we mean it. No greenwashing. Just real impact. Each pair is made from plastic from the ocean, not 'ocean-bound plastic'. Because you don’t have to fix the ocean to love it, but you can wear something that shows you do.

Every Short Sold Plants Seaweed

For every pair of Blauw swim shorts sold, we fund the planting of seaweed. Why seaweed? Because it is one of the ocean’s most powerful tools for carbon capture and marine restoration. It’s our way of giving back to the sea that inspires us.

Look good above the surface. Do good below it.

    Respects the sea and dries fast

    As a freediver and ocean storyteller, I need gear that dries fast and respects the sea. My midnight blue Blauw shorts do both while looking great and feeling suuuper comfortable! Love these!

    Look no further

    If you need a pair a swimtrunks, look no further than these. They took plastic from the ocean, did science and turned them into this magnificent pair of swimtrunks. What once was a plastic bottle holding lemonade in the middle of the sea, now is a pair of shorts holding your lemons in the middle of a pool.

    Color really pops

    I'm very pleasantly surprised by the Blauw shorts. They're incredibly comfortable and don't restrict you at all when swimming breaststroke. Also the pockets are so well-positioned that the shorts don't act like a braking parachute while swimming. So, Blauw really created a swimming short that feels comfortable both on the beach and in the water. Compared to the same size Midnight Bleu short I hat to tie the waist cord since the elastic band was a little too loose, but the Sage Green color really pops!

    Review From Down Under

    Really loving these swim shorts - they're obviously not cheap, but they're comfy and the quality is there... knowing they're made from ocean plastics is just a feel good bonus. Can't wait for them to be available locally so I can nab a few more pairs for the Aussie summer. Keep the different colours coming too, please!
