Bather

About Bather

Bather is a Toronto swimwear label that started in 2013 with one aim: the perfect swim trunk. The trunks use a soft, exclusive liner in place of the stretched mesh kind, paired with a polyester shell that dries quickly, so there's less chafing and less time leaving the beach soaked. Designs are simple and functional, drawing on vintage fabrics and the California coast, in solids, fine stripes, seersucker and prints. The range has since grown to include lounge wear, shirting and other essentials. Making things locally is central: much of it is made minutes from the Toronto office, which lets the team oversee production from start to finish, at prices pitched between fast fashion and luxury.
