Outfitting the beach life in Fort Lauderdale and Provincetown
We think outfitting life ought to be fun and sexy, entertaining and relaxed. Our saucy sales staff in Wilton Manors, FL and Provincetown, MA make every shopping trip memorable and every customer confident they they're leaving dressed to look their best at and on the beach. Our current assortment includes the top brands- Buffalo, Levis, Ajaxx63, Savauge, LA Sporting Club, Island Company, Johnson Motors, Trim Industries, Zanrobe, Aussie Bum, J&M, LBT, Nasty Pig, and Andrew Christian. And, in creating our own products, we continue to re-interpret the fashion but maintain the fit that has made our swim suits a favorite for nearly 15 years.
D.O.B.
Our story begins in November 1997. Having been seduced by Miami's South Beach, we dropped out of NY to embrace the beach life. Inspired by our new resort lifestyle, we wanted to share a bit of paradise with our neighbors and weekend friends by creating an exclusive beachwear collection featuring men's swimsuits. We opened "Ball Beachwear" across from the 12th Street beach just in time for White Party, offering the largest selection of men's swim suits – including our own collection- on the beach. We also carried a full range of men's contemporary resort fashions from gym wear to club wear- and everything in between. When the ultra-male "Tom of Finland" collection was launched in 1999, we jumped at the chance to open a shop-in shop concept to introduce the South Beach community to the popular brand.
The BALL swim suit that made us famous
In 2000, we introduced our most successful product to date. What the Wonder Bra achieved for women- we created for men with our super-duper flattering (and patented) swim suit collection constructed with built-in elastic rings. The reception was- and remains- enthusiastic to the extreme.
Here come the girls
In 2001, we expanded to include a women's swim suit collection. Once again, seeking inspiration in South Beach and doing what we do best, we designed and produced a group of coordinated separates, allowing each woman to mix the sizes and styles to maximize her assets.
Fort Lauderdale calls. We answered.
2002 brought the launch of our second store in Fort Lauderdale. We followed the migration of fashion and body conscious men from Dade to Broward counties, opening a men's-only shop a couple of doors down from the landmark - "Georgie's Alibi" in the Shoppes of Wilton Manors. Our new, larger location provided the space to expand our collection of men's swim suits and to introduce Buffalo Jeans and 2-xist underwear.
We're open 7 days a week, except August and September. Located at 2252 Wilton Drive, we can be reached at 954 537-4120.
Provincetown, MA
In 2004, we opened our third store in Provincetown, MA- on the northern tip of Cape Cod. We re-launched our women's line and in Provincetown, offer swim and beach wear, jeans and t-shirts for both men and women. In 2006, we moved to a larger shop located at 144 Commercial Street (across from the West End General Store).
