Home to an ever-changing selection of the top summer brands, The Ski Bum is your all-in-one destination for the latest swimsuits, sandals, and accessories. Curated for durability and value, you’ll discover that many of our popular summer styles feature eco-friendly materials, skin-safe fabrics, and innovative design features that have been optimized for all-day comfort and product longevity. Let’s take a look at some of this season’s affordable and versatile summer styles!
Cool, Lightweight, & Protective: Start With Our Sun-Safe Upgrades
For sunny and sweltering days, check out our colorful selection of UV-stopping upgrades like our long sleeve rash guards and lightweight swim shirts. Thanks to a combination of blocking and reflecting technology that’s woven directly into the shirts, these advanced fabrics beat the heat, protect against radiation damage, and soothe the skin with every wear. Pair any of our sun-safe shirts with a free-flowing sundress or a coordinating pair of board shorts to complete your lightweight and breathable summer setup.
Board Shorts Promote Enhanced Mobility & Are Undeniably Stylish
For the pool, surf, and sand, our low-profile board shorts open up the possibilities for active lifestyles and casual lounging outside. If you’re an ambitious surfer or swimmer, top picks from iconic brands like Salty Crew, Billabong, Volcom and Quiksilver are crafted with tougher fabrics, ultra-reliable stitching, and environmentally-friendly materials that look as good as they feel. If creative contrast or sophisticated summer elegance is the goal, you’ll find a generous variety of colorful and inspiring bathing suits to uplift a specific theme, create your own trend, or brighten your attire with a never-before-seen pattern or color combination.
