Mercurio Swimwear
Mercurio Swim was conceived and launched in 2018 by Paul Crist and fashion designer Todd Barnes with a mission to create men’s swimwear of high quality, excellent fit, and limited production for local guys and mercurio swimtourists. The swimwear line was designed in order to address several shortcomings they saw in the men’s swimwear available in local stores. In many stores, the quality of fabrics and notions (the thread, elastic, drawstring, etc. used in sewing) is poor. Attention to stitching is often lacking in factory produced swimwear—and poor stitching doesn’t hold up! The result of using cheaper materials and manufacturing methods is a swimsuit that does not wear well. The fabric and elastics lose their stretch. Stitching pulls loose. Colors fade. Sun, suntan lotions, pool chemicals and saltwater all affect the materials used in swimwear, so it is important to use the best available if the goal is a durable suit that will fit well for a long time. At Mercurio Swim, we’re very serious about quality and quality control.
