We know that the sun is trying its hardest to usher in a season of productive mornings and long, relaxed evenings, so this week’s top 5 items are decidedly summer-tinged. We have you covered whatever the coming months hold: if it’s a laid-back day by the sea, look to the Nikben swim shorts; perhaps a less laid-back day of travelling is on the cards, in which case head to Floyd for luggage done correctly. No matter how the next few months are shaping up, here are 5 items that are guaranteed to come in handy.

Schnayderman's Sand Boxy Linen One Shirt

While many brands look to expand their ranges to the broadest that they can reach, Schnayderman's works for depth. With an aim to create the perfect shirt, to update the world of men’s shirting, the Stockholm brand returns each season with a renewed eye for tailored formal and casualwear. As the weather gets warmer, many shirts fade into obsolescence, too thick or too tightly tailored for the temperature. Look to Schanyderman’s Linen One shirt for a relaxed fit, lightweight, breathable construction and a strong summer colour palette.

Nikben Black Benedict Swim Shorts

Founded in Stockholm, Nikben aims to shake up the swimwear world; gone are the days of all-black Speedos, thankfully. Instead, the Swedish label create swimming gear with attitude, characterised by statement-making, all-over prints. One of their less striking offerings comes in the form of the Benedict swim shorts. Instilling your off-duty wardrobe with a touch of breakfast-inspired humour, the egg motif is complemented by the less playful premium construction which dries speedily and features a mesh lining for comfort.
