Printworthy: 8 Adventure-Ready, Summer-Approved Styles

Kavu Big Eddy Shorts

Summertime and the livin’ is easy. And the style? The style is loud, proud and maybe just a little obnoxious. High temps and long days seem to expand the range of socially acceptable prints, and outdoor brands are happy to indulge our out-there tastes.

So whether you’re spending the day in the saddle, hitting a bluegrass concert series or boarding a plane, here are prints that will help you stand out this summer.

Kavu Big Eddy Short

Kavu Big Eddy ShortWith its bevy of hip, hilarious and hard-to-miss prints, Kavu is arguably the king of stop-and-stare style. Case in point: this season’s Fish Fest* print, available in the loose-fitting men’s Big Eddy Short. Quick-dry fabric makes this short perfect for summer fun of all kinds from mountain biking and hiking to canoeing and bass fishing. $60 | kavu.com

*Don’t confuse this print with the older Fish Fiesta print. Fish Fest features fishes of the Pacific Ocean, whereas Fish Fiesta highlighted species from the Gulf of Mexico.

Backcountry Canyonlands Lightweight Wind Jacket

Backcountry Canyonlands Lightweight Wind Jacket

The Medieval Blue Current print on Backcountry’s Canyonlands Lightweight Wind Jacket is dark and broody in all the best ways.
