Beach gear from M.Nii and Mollusk, trainers from JM Weston

Shore things Speaking of surfwear, you’re going to want something for up top and we recommend Mollusk tees from California. Inspired by vintage designs and all made in the Golden State, Mollusk tees (right and far right; HK$288 each) have that lived-in, sun-bleached vibe that’ll make you look like an old beach hand and not a newbie with sand in your eyes (actually, we can’t guarantee any of that). Mollusk is also available at www.mrporter.com.

Give me a break With the Point Break remake edging closer (they’ve cast Ray Winstone as the Gary Busey character, which is either the greatest idea ever, or the worst), The goods is getting into surfing – and not armed robbery. We won’t be buying a wetsuit anytime soon as we’re not that committed, but board shorts are a must and we recommend Hawaiian brand M.Nii. We like the palm tree-print shorts (above left; HK$1,054), which will turn heads on the beach and out to sea, but, if you want something more demure, there’s also the Clubmaster-style shorts (above right; also HK$1,054). M.Nii is available at www.mrporter.com.
