Bangkok has a new local swimwear label for guys selling styles eerily reminiscent of Timo but for around half the price.

Sand & Salt offers basic shorts and shirts for summer beach trips produced in line with Iodine Global Network (IGN) to donate parts of their revenue to fighting iodine deficiency in children.

The main line features nylon swim shorts that start from B1,400 for whole colors in options like classic midnight blue and bright orange, while the navy striped shorts cost a little more at B1,600. Beach tees (B600), shirts (B1,300) and cotton lounge pants are also available. www.sandandsalt.com
