Robinson Les Bains

Robinson Les Bains is a luxury swimwear brand from France for men that combines fashion with the sporty life. The collection includes a wide variety of suits for anyone from the sun worshipper to the avid surfer. There are briefs, trunks and boardshorts in unique color ways and vintage inspired fabrics and patterns. Each season Christophe dyes one fabric (a mix of cotton and spandex) in his own color way and as they suit fades through wash and wear the piece acquires a vintage look. Another great selling point is that he uses a technical fabric that dries in only five minutes. The line was launched in 2007 by Christophe Vérot, a fashion vétéran, who has held many positions in the industry. Vérot worked as a PR for Hermès, Balenciaga and Viktor & Rolf and in sales for Dior Homme, Louis Vuitton and Yves Saint Laurent. When Vérot was on vacation one summer he realized he couldn’t find a bathing suit that worked for him so he decided to launch his own line. Robinson les Bains is for the refined gentleman, sensible about his look on the beach as well as in the city.
