The summer is a time to get outdoors, enjoying the warm weather, and make a splash! Fashion is laid back and focused on comfort, keeping cool, and looking good. Whether you are spending your days sitting poolside with a refreshing drink or playing volleyball on the beach with your friends, we have you and your wardrobe covered.

All you need is a great swimsuit, sunscreen, and some flip flops to be ready for your favorite water activities! Our swim trunks will keep you looking trendy with one-of-a-kind prints, styles, and shades.

Men’s Swim Trunks to Keep You Looking Cool this Summer

All our bathing suits are extremely colorful and will help you to show off your summer glow. If looking and feeling good this summer is your goal, we suggest choosing an eye-catching set of trunks that do the job of a head-to-toe outfit when it comes to style.

The Best Men’s Swim Trunks

There are endless styles of swim trunks available to men, from knee length board shorts to the returning short shorts. Ours come in different lengths, but one thing remains the same. We have an array of colors and designs, including:

Men’s Swim Trunk Designs

-   Tie Dye

-   Ombre

-   Graphic prints

-   Fruit patterns

-   Bold patterns

Make Swim Trunks a Versatile Summer Outfit

Even though most of the time you’ll be rocking your suit shirtless, there will be times you want to pair it with more clothing. We want you to feel inspired to create outfits with pieces that you already own, but we also have great recommendations for making your trunks appropriate for a quick lunch between body surfing sessions.

When dry, swim trunks can easily pass for regular men’s shorts. If you choose to wear them to a pool party or on vacation to the beach, you likely want to arrive with a top and shoes that can easily be removed for fun in the water.

Tops that Pair with Trunks

-   tees

-   tanks

-   short sleeve button up shirts

-   hoodies

Keep in Casual

Because of the casualness that bathing suits tend to give off, the setting that you will probably be wearing this outfit in will most likely be accepting of wearing button down shirts unbuttoned.

Bathing suits can be worn in both a casual setting and in a more formal setting. Of course, not as formal as a black-tie event, but there are more formal events where you can wear a bathing suit like a graduation party or a beach party on vacation.

If pairing with a t-shirt or tank, we like finishing the look with a good slip on sneaker and hat.  A favorite pairing of ours is the men’s blue Aloha Print Volley swim shorts with either our Dusty Blue Drip Tank Top or our White Streaky Print Tee, depending on how much muscle you would like to show off.

If it gets chilly towards the end of the day when the sun starts to set on the beach feel free to throw on a hoodie or a long sleeve tee to keep you warm. If you are in and out of the pool in the backyard or at the beach you are most likely going to be barefoot but if you want to finish this look off with a pair or shoes feel free to wear a pair of slides or sneakers.

Jazz it Up

On the other hand, if you want to wear a bathing suit in a less casual setting like a party or restaurant, we can definitely help you with some ideas on how to dress up your trunks. One of our fun bathing suits that can be dressed up are our men’s Green Tie Dye swim shorts. This bathing suit can even be worn as a pair of regular shorts during the summer.

You can pair either this particular swim suit or one of your own swim trunks with a button down shirt like our Wien Long Sleeve Woven Shirt. Wear this button down buttoned up halfway or completely unbuttoned for more of a laid-back look. Any button up short sleeve shirts would go perfect with a swimsuit.

To finish off this look, we recommend pairing these outfits with accessories like hats and sunglasses. A fedora style hat would definitely cap off the button down and swim trunks outfit. It gives off a beachy and tropical look and will make you feel like you are on a vacation on an island anywhere in the world even if you are just hanging out in your own backyard. A stylish pair of clubmasters or aviator sunglasses would give it an extra touch of style as well. Don't forget to finish this look off with a pair of boat shoes or sandals that you can easily slip on and off throughout the day!

Go for the Bold Choice

You don’t have to play it safe with your swim trunk design. Liven things up with bright colors and patterns you wouldn’t entertain for daily wear. We love a bold, bright suit!

Festive Men’s Swim Trunks

-   Watermelon Swim Trunks

-   Popsicle Swim Trunks

Each of these printed trunks relate to summer vibes. While wearing them you can fully immerse yourself in all things summer. The Popsicle swim trunks come in both aqua and navy so you can choose which shade of blue suits you best.

All of these styles can be paired with any of our t-shirts or hoodies which can be worn during the chillier days on the beach. Some of our favorite hoodies that go great with these graphic swim trunks include our men’s White Legend Worldwide Hoodie or our men’s White Brooklyn Graffiti Doodle Hoodie. Both of these hoodies also have original graphic designs all around them.

Bathing suits don’t get worn as often as our other clothing, so we tend to hold onto them for a while. Although most of us are guilty of this, let us assure you, it is important to continue to upgrade and revamp your summer wardrobe every so often. The popular trends are constantly changing, and we want to keep our #BKKAM in style. The best is yet to come is a saying that many people live by, and it applies to clothing as well.

Don't forget to express yourself through your clothing even with something as casual as a pair of swim trunks. Our goal here at Unclebuddysermons is to provide our #BKFAM with the best, most comfortable clothing all year around!

Summer is here! You know what that means #BKFAM. It’s time to switch your clothes over from your spring wardrobe to your summer collection. If last year’s collection isn't cutting it for you, feel free to start shopping for some new summer looks right here at Unclebuddysermons.

A Go-To Guide for Men’s Summer Fashion

Here at Unclebuddysermons, we want you to be stocked up with the ultimate summer wardrobe. We have all the necessary garments that you will need to complete all of your already planned looks. From shorts to joggers and tees to tanks, we have it all waiting for you.

Our men’s department is stocked with all of your favorites. You are never too old to start expressing yourself through your clothing choices. We are here to help you find what styles complement you best.

Whether you need comfortable clothes to just relax in throughout the summer or if you need attire for family gatherings over the next couple of months, we have you covered. One of the great things about our clothes is that they are extremely versatile. You can wear any of the joggers, tee shirts, button up shirts or shorts to any occasion by adding the right accessories to dress it up or down. We are going to come up with five complete outfits from top to bottom for you to rock this summer.

The Perfect Beach Day Ensemble

Say you decide to spend the day at the beach surrounded by all of your closest friends and family members. All of your friends are probably going to be wearing the same old bathing suits that they have sported the past couple of summers. You want to show off some cool new swim trunks this summer and we’ve got you covered!

We offer various kinds of swim shorts for men. They come in all different designs for you to choose from. Some of our favorite new swim trunks are the tie-dye patterned pieces. They come in various color options including purple, multicolor, and green tie dye. All three of these swim trunks come in eight and a half inch inseams.

Trunks on the Bottom—Tees on Top

You most likely are not going to be wearing a shirt with these swim trunks while at the beach or the pool, but on your way to and from, we suggest pairing them with a solid-colored t-shirt or tank top.

Our Sand Marble Tee  or our Mint Positive Tie Dye Tee would be two great options to pair these colorful bottoms with. When working with colorful garments, we suggest pairing them with solid colors so that we are able to fully complement the colors. We do not want the look to get too busy or take away from one of the garments because it clashes with the other. Sometimes the beach can become chilly when the clouds pass by and block the sun from shining directly on you. During that time a long sleeve light tee shirt would definitely come in handy.

To finish off this look, we suggest pairing these swim trunks and solid colored top with a pair of solid white or black sneakers. If you are going to the beach rather than the pool, we suggest choosing a pair of slides instead so that the sand does not ruin your sneakers. Don’t forget to finish off this look with a baseball cap or a bucket hat. It is important to protect yourself from the sun! Be sure not to forget to apply your sunscreen throughout the day. A sunburn is not recommended with this outfit.

Graduation Party Attire

Tis’ graduation season. Whether it be a high school graduation or a college graduation, we have you covered on what to wear. Sometimes it is hard to find a graduation outfit because you do not want to be too formal, but you also do not want to look too casual or that you don’t care about the event.

Comfort is also essential because most of the time the party starts early in the day when the sun is still blaring. We suggest that you wear a pair of khaki shorts and a button-down short-sleeve shirt. We have a couple of options for you to choose from in the shirts department to make sure that you achieve the formal yet comfortable look for these parties.

Our two options are our Blue Confetti Woven Shirt or our Black Palm Tree Woven Shirt. Both of these shirts include:

• 100% cotton material
• bright colors
• button down style and collars

Both of the shirts are still fun and casual but give off a more formal vibe. If you’re not into khaki color shorts, you can choose a different color like dark blue, black, beige, or gray. You can also pair the shirts with dark blue or black jeans if the graduation party is at night or in cooler temperatures.

We suggest finishing this outfit off with a pair of low-rise sneakers like Vans or Converse.

Some extra accessories that you can add to any of these outfits to spice them up a bit and assure your trendiness would be intact:

• loafers
• boat shoes
• wristwatches
• belts
• sunglasses

Summer Bonfire

Summer nights tend to get a little chilly when the sun goes down, but don’t worry, we have you covered for that event as well. Even though we are fully stocked on shorts and tank top attire for the summertime, we also have tons of joggers that will keep you warm when you are sitting around the fire at nighttime with your friends and family. We offer various types of joggers. Some have zippers, some are made of heat seal fleece, some have pockets. We have so many options that you can choose from.

One of our favorite pairs of joggers that we have are our black core fleece cargo joggers. These joggers are so sleek looking and have many pockets to store your keys, phone and wallet in. This style also comes in black marled, camo, and black camo. We offer these joggers in various prints and colors so that you can wear them with any type of clothing that you would like. These specific joggers are a great pair to have in your wardrobe because they can be worn with so many different combinations.

Hoodies for Chilly Summer Nights

You will have the ability to choose whichever sweatshirt or hoodie you desire to pair with our joggers because everything matches the color black. Sweatshirts and hoodies should also an essential part of your summer wardrobe. As we mentioned prior, summer nights tend to get a little chilly therefore hoodies will definitely come in handy during the summer season, along with the rest of the year.

We also personally love the tie-dye trend here at Unclebuddysermons, so we obviously suggest pairing our sleek black joggers with our tie-dye hoodies. We offer our multicolor tie-dye hoodie and our tie-dye No More Worries hoodie for you to choose from. If you end up getting warm while sitting around the hot fire roasting marshmallows, you can always wear a tank top or tee underneath.

To finish off this outfit, choose one of your favorite pairs of sneakers. However, if you are sitting around the fire, you most likely will be barefoot while cuddled up on the outdoor couch.

Fashion for Rainy Days

The worst is when it rains during the summer. We look forward to the summer so that we can constantly be outdoors in the shining sun. There isn’t much to do when it rains other than chill at home, watch movies, go bowling, or find a roller rink for nostalgic entertainment.

Although these activities probably aren’t our first choice to partake in during the summer, it is always nice to have at least one relaxing day during the week so rain might be a blessing in disguise. We want to provide our #BKFAM with comfortable options to wear while lounging around on rainy summer days.

Our knit shorts are one of our favorite garments that we offer here. They come in a variety of colorful colors that you can wear to cozy up during the rainy day. These colors include:

Knit Short Colorways

• Terrain
• Dusty rose
• Soft moss
• Dusty blue
• Koi
• Gold sun
• Viola
• Yellow
• Dusty black sun

All of these knit shorts are solid colored so you can choose from a variety of t-shirts to go along with it.

Of course, it is summer so it is still hot out, but we always like to pair our shorts with a hoodie to stay comfortable while we cozy up at home when it is thundering outside and we aren’t able to go in the pool. One of our signature hoodies that would go great with these bright shorts would be our Dusty Rose Color Block Hoodie. This hoodie has white and purple accents printed all over it so this hoodie would go great with our viola knit shorts.

In the Office

We grew up with summertime being our long break from work and school. But as we get older, that is no longer a reality unfortunately. Nobody likes to go into the office on a hot summer day but most of us have to. To make work more bearable, you should dress on your a-game so that you feel great throughout the day!

Most likely, our offices all have dress codes, but we here at Unclebuddysermons can provide you with work attire that is professional and acceptable for the office. One of our bestsellers is our twill jogger collection. We offer these twill joggers in a variety of colors that you can choose from. We actually recommend adding various colors to your wardrobe because we know that you will love them so much and will want to wear them with every top option that you can.

One outfit suggestion for these twill joggers would be the khaki twill joggers paired with a white button-down collared shirt. In the summer, we like to wear light colors to keep us from overheating. Both of these garments are light in color and in weight so that you won’t be sweating through them during your commute.

Of course, we need to finish this professional look with some accessories. Never forget to tuck your collared shirt into your joggers. We suggest wearing your favorite pair of dress shoes or loafers with this outfit to make it look even more office ready.

Summer is about wearing bright colors and having fun in the sun. We offer a variety of multicolored bright color pieces for you to choose from.

Be Daring and Be Bold

Don’t be shy to try out a new trend, even if you do not think it is for you at first. You may be pleasantly surprised when you start putting outfits together. We are always encouraging our Unclebuddysermons family to step out of their comfort zones when it comes to clothes.

People almost always get sick of their wardrobe after a while, so why not constantly update it with new pieces that you can look forward to wearing? It is never too early to start planning outfits for special occasions coming up in the future.

Who knows? Maybe one of our pieces that you wouldn’t usually buy may become one of your favorite pieces to own and wear!

After a couple of months had passed and work video chats resumed, we began to feel sluggish and lazy. Clothing really does seem to have something to do with our lack of productivity. If you feel great because you look great, you will tend to be more productive throughout the day.

We still weren’t ready to throw back on our usual pair of work pants or jeans just yet so we collectively brought biker shorts back into the game of looking trendy while still feeling comfortable.

Our Favorite Summer 2021 Look: Biker Shorts

Biker shorts are a great alternative to our comfortable leisurewear consisting of sweatpants and hoodies. Although these pieces bring us ultimate comfort, wearing them all day long wasn’t helping our productivity levels. 

What Are Biker Shorts?

Biker shorts are a combination of shorts and leggings. When they were first created, they were originally used for cyclists who rode their bikes for long periods of time or those who competed in races.

Assos created the first pair of biker shorts for these cyclists in 1976. After popularity spread, an Italian designer, Armando Castelli, and his son created biker shorts for the public. When they launched these shorts, there was a line that formed quickly around the factory for consumers to get their hands on a pair. 

Although they were created for athletes, they are no longer just for individuals participating in athletics. These shorts are widely worn by individuals who are just looking for a comfortable piece to complete their regular day to day outfits. As we all know, these shorts were wildly popular thanks to Princess Diana in the 1990s.

Biker Shorts on Trend

Princess Diana was constantly being photographed wearing her biker shorts paired with baggy sweatshirts going to and from work outs. The same look is now being re-created in present time. We are constantly seeing celebrities and ordinary people walking the streets wearing this exact look. Many of us are familiar with the picture of Princess Diana stopped on the sidewalk, wearing biker shorts, holding her bag with her keys in her mouth.

This look has been re-created various times. It is often compared side-by-side to celebrities like Hailey Bieber who often wears the same type of look. Some other celebrities that have jumped on this biker shorts trend are Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s fashion line, Yeezy. Kim Kardashian is constantly being photographed wearing biker shorts paired with a matching top, sports bra or baggy sweatshirt.

These leisurewear outfits are usually paired with a pair of chunky sneakers and high socks. The celebrities wearing these outfits are not usually on their way to work out though. It is interesting how something that used to be solely used for exercise and activities has evolved and is now seen as a major fashion trend for all occasions. 

Many of the celebrities that we see wearing biker shorts pair them with a matching sports bra or a baggy oversize sweatshirt. These outfits are also worn with sneakers and high socks to absolutely be on point with the Princess Diana look from the 90’s. On the other hand, we have seen influencers and celebrities wearing biker shorts differently throughout the past year.

Pairing Biker Shorts

Not only are biker shorts usually paired with a pair of sneakers, but they are also sometimes seen with high heels, believe it or not. Celebrities have blurred the lines of fashion with this look.

Biker shorts are a great alternative to regular athletic shorts or leggings while working out because when the weather is too warm for leggings we tend to turn to our shorts.

The downfall to wearing shorts while working out is they constantly get bunched up while running. This annoyance tends to lead to chafing which can be painful and distracting. Biker shorts fit tightly around the thighs and stay in place while you are either running or doing your normal daily workout, so chafing won’t be an issue and you can get through your workout without having to constantly stop to adjust your attire. 

Styles of Biker Shorts

Biker shorts also come in many different lengths. Here at Unclebuddysermons, we offer biker shorts in both 5 inches and 7 inches. The look and the length vary between body sizes and which outfit you are incorporating them into.

Depending on which ones look and feel better on your body, it may also be beneficial to own various lengths so that you can mix and match them with different tops and jackets.

Working Out in Biker Shorts

Exercise was the essential use for the biker short and it was the reason why they were actually created in the first place. The perfect gym outfit is an outfit that is comfortable yet practical for all of your exercises. You do not want your outfit to get in the way of completing your work out.

Biker shorts are the perfect combination of leggings and shorts because you will not be sweating with your full leg covered. You also will not have to worry about your biker shorts riding up too much because they tend to stay in place.

You can do a casual look and pair of biker shorts with a baggy T-shirt. If you are aiming for a sleeker look, you can pair your biker shorts with a matching sports bra or a fitted workout tank top. The sneakers that you choose to wear obviously depends on what type of workout you are doing that day. If you are focusing on strength and training with weights, it would be a good idea to wear sneakers with a flat bottom like converse or vans. If you are doing more cardio or running, a classic running sneaker would be a great option to pair this outfit with. Either low or high socks work well with these ensembles.  

Biker shorts are also great for working out because many of them have pockets. We all know how handy pockets come in when running down the block because you have to hold your house key and your phone, but you do not want to have your hands full.

Working out is a daily activity for many people, so it is essential that you feel your best while doing so. Here at Unclebuddysermons, we want to help you achieve that perfect exercise look with our biker short collection. 

Biker Shorts as Athleisure

Athleisure gives you the perfect combination of comfortable and cute, allowing you to run errands or hang around your house. Biker shorts fit into this trend, providing you with another option for your athleisure collection.

Pair your biker shorts with an oversized t-shirt and tie off the tee for a more fitted look to create an easy outfit for every-day wear. We also love to see a  matching sports bra or cropped top with a zip up sweatshirt. Perfect the look with platform sneakers, like Vans or your favorite Converse.

If you really want to pull in the 90’s, grab some high socks and throw your hair in a scrunchy!

Best Biker Shorts

Biker shorts are available in a variety of fun prints and bright colors. Easily mix and match a variety of our pieces to make your look great.

You’ll find styles from Unclebuddysermons that are great for day or night! So much more comfortable than tight jeans, you’ll love the fit of our biker shorts that give you the perfect stretch and breathability.

Biker Shorts for Work and School

We know this may sound alarming, but again, it all comes back to what you pair your biker shorts with. Grab a solid pair of biker shorts and pair with a trendy blazer, we love the oversized blazer look, and you’ll be ready to present this month’s best numbers or your presentation for an A plus.

Cardigans and button-down collared shirts are another option to pair them for a chic, easy look. Close-toed high heels or flats are a great final accessory.

Going Out in Biker Shorts

If a celebrity can do it, so can you! Pair them with crop tops, oversized outerwear like jackets or blazers, and some fun jewelry to accessorize. We recommend the 7-inch length for your nights out, but that’s a personal preference.

This is the time to brighten things up with a neon top or a fun animal print! Throw on some booties, sneakers, or really anything you want—with biker shorts, everything works.

Biker Short Prints

Making the final decision of which biker shorts to add to your wardrobe can be difficult. We recommend changing back and forth between some solids and some prints to give you options for your every day. If this is your first pair of biker shorts, try something solid to get started and then go crazy, think of it as your first pair of black leggings.

• Tonal tie dye
• Lavender
• Dusty Rose
• Light Gray
• Sage
• Black
• Camouflage
• Leopard Print

All of the solid color biker shorts can be paired with whatever top you would like. Some options can be T-shirts, sweatshirts, tank tops, or sports bras like we mentioned before. You can even pair it with a fun print top because it won’t take away from the solid color biker shorts.

If you like having simple outfits like two solid color pieces, try adding a fun-colored shoe to spice up the outfit a little bit.

Your Biker Shorts, Your Way

Whether it be an athletic outfit, a leisure outfit to wear as you lounge around the house, or even a going out outfit to wear as you take on the city at night on the weekends, there are so many options and ways to have fun and be creative with these outfits.

We encourage you to step out of your comfort zone and try new styles within this biker shorts trend because you may like it better than the original ways that they were being worn. Who knows? You may even start a whole new trend for other fashionistas.

You can never have too many pairs of biker shorts, so don’t forget to stock up on all of the various prints and shades that we offer here at Unclebuddysermons to our #BKFAM.

Don’t forget to stay comfortable and trendy while hopping on the trend. We can’t wait to see what you come up with and where this trend leads you and the fashion industry next!
