A collaboration between Mess of Blues and Novela Watch Club, Miami.
This is not a swim trunk — it’s a tailored short for those who understand craftsmanship.
Each piece is handmade in Italy, designed with a fit reminiscent of 1980s icons — think Magnum P.I. emerging from the ocean. Constructed like a bespoke pant, it features a precise tailored waistband with gold metal buttons, side adjusters, a front zip fly, and a hidden back pocket with invisible zipper.
Inside, the ultra-fine lining and laser-cut finishing eliminate raw edges for a level of refinement rarely seen in resort wear. Side pockets are lined and reinforced to carry your essentials with ease. Comes with a matching printed bag, perfect for storing it wet after a swim.
Two exclusive prints:
Black Watches: Hand-illustrated iconic timepieces, celebrating mechanical art and timeless design.
Green Cars: Classic automotive silhouettes from the golden age — pure collector nostalgia.
Limited production — when they’re gone, they’re gone.
Why you’ll love them:
Tailored like a fine pant, wearable in or out of the water.
Sublime Italian fabric — soft, durable, and quick-dry.
Refined fit with precise proportion and lasting structure.
Each pair is a numbered piece of design — not fashion, but craftsmanship.
