Transport for London and Budgy Smuggler announced a new partnership that will see the London Underground used as inspiration for a range of swimwear. The collection features the recognizable moquette designs from the Northern, District and Victoria lines, which act as the main pattern for the swimwear to give it a stylish and funky profile. The collection is available exclusively to shop on the brand's website where shoppers can pick up swim trunks in the three styles starting at £39.99.
Chief Smuggler Adam Linforth commented on the Transport for London and Budgy Smuggler collection saying, "We all get the Tube to work everyday, so we jumped at the chance to join the brands and create something special for the UK Summer that is both iconically Australian and also iconically British; the TfL x Budgy Smuggler Collection!”
