A Trimmer Trunk - NYTimes.com Between loud surf Jams and ill-fitting board shorts, American guys too often err when it comes to beachside style. Adam Brown, the British designer behind the culty swimwear brand Orlebar Brown, offers a corrective. His classic trunks - trimly tailored with a fixed waist and adjustable side tabs - come in three decreasingly daring lengths: the thigh-exposing Setter, as modeled by Daniel Craig in the most recent Bond flick (here in the new-for-spring Fiorentina print by the late designer David Hicks); the midlength Bulldog, for shyer sorts; and the Dane, a slimmed-down board short that marries Old World prudery with a New World fit.
