Scuba Trunks – P42 “Frogskin” Camo

The SCUBA TRUNKS, the one garment that inspired and fired-up our entire mfsc Frogsville concept! 

As the swimwear of choice of the Naval Special Warfare combat skin diver since WW2, the unique silhouette/cut (short length, high waist, double D-ring adjustable strap) has long been associated with the badassery of the Naked Warriors, UDT Frogmen and US Navy SEALs.

For our Mister Freedom® interpretation, we combined details and cuts from several military-issued swim shorts from our archives. We applied the usual MF® twist and blended all the vintage references into a contemporary wearable garment.

With updated pattern/fit/fabrics, our swim trunks are not replicas, yet respectful of the DNA of vintage military originals.

SIZING/FIT

The Mister Freedom® Scuba Trunks ships raw/unwashed. 

The Scuba Trunks fit true-to-size. However, consider sizing up for a comfortable fit. Please refer to sizing chart to determine which size works for you.

CL’s Advice: The D-ring waist strap allows for a one-inch ~ ½ inch cinch. I wear a W32 in all models, and can get away with a W31 in the “Army” denim version. I’m about 5’7 / 145-150 lbs. Wear underwear.

CARE 

Machine wash with cold water, gentle cycle, eco-friendly mild detergent and line dry.
