Product Insights
Paul Smith's Zebra Crest Swim Trunks are out-of-stock recycled polyester trunks that combine chlorine and UV resistance with fast-drying peach-skin fabric, offering durability equivalent to virgin polyester. The 4-inch inseam and adjustable waistband provide a confident fit, while the bright colorway and zebra patch offset the premium price for design-driven buyers, though the open slant pockets risk losing small items during swimming.
