Boys Swimwear
Funky Trunks Boys Training Jammers- Paper Cut
For our latest product range, we’re trialling the use of wearable paper. Paper can be used for so many things, drawing on, making aeroplanes, wrapping fish and chips, burning in a fire, the list is endless, so why not wear it too? Let us know if you have any issues wearing paper, especially when it’s wet, but if you do, at least you can use our product to carry your fish and chips around in instead.
Funky Trunks Boys Training Jammers - Gum Nuts
Although koalas love to swim, they don’t look particularly happy about it, often emerging from the water looking like a drowned rat. So, we’ve designed swimwear for koalas to encourage them to look brighter and happier in and around the water. We have ensured the swimwear is also suitable for human use and as an added bonus, the gum leaves are edible as well. Next we’ll work on swimwear for rats, made from rat bait.
