Blue Square Pattern Shorts

byMODE Swim Shorts — Season Two

We went back to the drawing board on these. Last year’s shorts were good — this year’s are better, and it shows in every detail.

New quick-dry fabric that moves with you and dries in half the time. A refined fit through the thigh, taken in slightly from last season based on your feedback, for a sharper silhouette without losing comfort. Reinforced stitching on every seam after we stress-tested the originals to breaking point. A drawcord upgrade — same premium metal tips, now with a smoother pull.

The print took the longest. Weeks of iterating on scale and placement to make sure it reads right whether you’re sat by the pool or walking through a hotel lobby. Nothing generic, nothing off-the-shelf — designed in-house and refined until it was right.

This isn’t just a new colourway. It’s a full rebuild of last year’s bestseller, made the way it should’ve been made the first time.
