TIMO Aims To Be Next Generation In Mens Swimwear

When it comes to men's swimwear, if function, performance, and bold style is your concern, opt for TIMO.

Founder Pow Foongfaungchaveng introduces a new line of swim briefs and beach shorts that combine a downtown preppy look with modern tailoring, bold prints, and a quirky story. Founded in August 2011 by Pow Foongfaungchaveng, who is also acting as the brand's creative director, the brand has a plan to change up the swimwear game while practicing a clever sustainable strategy.

Prior to founding TIMO TRUNKS, Pow Foongfaungchaveng, a law graduate from King’s College London, has worked in the design industry and luxury management. Ultra-luxury standards are applied to the making of TIMO. Foongfaungchaveng began his career as a brand manager for two of the most exclusive luxury watch brands Vacheron Constantin, and Lange & Sohne in Thailand. Subsequently, he moved on to become a curator for prestigious Thailand’s Creative and Design Centre (TCDC). To date, he acts as an Honorary Advisor to Queen Sirikit Museum of Textiles, at Bangkok’s Grand Palace. 

TIMO offerings are precisely tailored and designed to be convenient and lightweight with a “super fast-drying fabric” that won’t fade dramatically over time. The bold geometric designs fit comfortably on the waist without looking out of style.

TIMO produces the collection in geographical locations near to the retail outlets where the collection is sold. By doing this, the carbon footprint of shipping is tremendously reduced - thus adhering to a promising sustainable path while creating jobs.
