The Raffles x Orlebar Brown Swim Shorts
A note from the butler
Light as a feather, quick-drying and easy to wear well beyond the water's edge, these swim shorts by Orlebar Brown for Raffles are as breezy as a day at the beach, and so well cut that no one would realise you'd just stepped out of the surf. In Orlebar Brown's signature 'Bulldog' style, these mid-length classics come with adjustable side fasteners to refine the fit, a back pocket zip and mesh lining for comfort in and out of the water. They are woven in Portugal from recycled polyester and Sequal, and finished in Raffles signature tropical palm print in graduated shades, reflecting the sky and sea at the end of a perfect day.

About this collection
A new suitcase collaboration between Globe-Trotter and Raffles has a rich history of travel behind it
There was a time when every journey began with ceremony. Steamships departed for distant ports, elegantly furnished Pullman trains crossed continents, and polished trunks stacked high in hotel lobbies promised adventures yet to unfold.
This was the dawn of luxury travel, a golden age of Belle Epoque exploration that still casts a spell on today’s sophisticated travellers. At the epicentre of it all was Raffles, which welcomed its first guests in Singapore in 1887, setting new standards of comfort and elegance with lavish suites, cutting-edge facilities and, of course, its iconic butler service. Just a decade later, Globe-Trotter, the legendary British luggage brand, began crafting handsome travel trunks and cases for those intrepid men and women setting out to explore the world.
