The Rail: Surfer

Like riding waves? Here are some top picks for surfing in warmer climates. And also, it’s all smart enough to wear for a beach-side lunch after a hard days’ surf.

T-Shirt

The ultimate in minimalist style, this black round neck OB-T t-shirt has a lean yet relaxed fit, curved shaped hem and is made from a super soft cotton. It’s extremely lightweight; ideal to slip on after a morning riding waves.

Boardshorts

The trendy NYC based Saturdays Surf brand offers some of the most stylish boardshorts around. Functional for sports, but also suitable out of the water to maintain your style

Wetsuit

A 3/2mm Chest Zip wetsuit is perfect for the summer’s slightly warmer UK waters. 3/2 refers to the thickness of the neoprene and this all-black suit is super slick.

Surfboard

A retro styled board that’s perfect for small waves. The Split Pea is more responsive for lighter more precise turns, ideal for beginners and ensuring you feel like you are walking on water.
