Why Sustainable Products Are the Way to Go for Your Next Vacation

Vacations are meant to recharge your energy and reconnect you with what matters. Choosing sustainable products means you can do both — enjoying every moment while reducing your footprint. At Coastal Cool, our eco-friendly swimwear and resort collections for men and women are made from recycled plastic bottles, designed for comfort, durability, and effortless coastal style.

Why Sustainability Matters When You Travel

Every purchase has power. Traditional swimwear often relies on virgin polyester and wasteful manufacturing. At Coastal Cool, we take a different approach. Each product is crafted from post-consumer recycled materials and designed for longevity. Through our One Pound Promise, every order helps remove one pound of plastic from the ocean — making your vacation wardrobe part of a larger mission to protect paradise.

For Him: Comfort That Moves With the Coast

Whether you’re sailing, swimming, or strolling down the boardwalk, our men’s collection combines lightweight performance with modern coastal design.

Bora Bora Swim Trunks – classic island blue with quick-dry recycled fabric.
Palm Ave Swim Trunks – tropical pattern inspired by coastal palms, made from recycled polyester.
Tidewater Swim Trunks – neutral tone for easy pairing, soft and sustainable with UPF 50+ protection.

Each pair delivers performance, breathability, and a classic fit built for warm days and cool waters. Explore the full Men’s Swimwear Collection made for travelers who live coastal.
