There is a fine line – traced by scorching tires, legendary feats, and timeless design – that connects the curves of the Circuit de la Sarthe to the world’s most exclusive beaches. Today, that line takes shape in three new swim shorts bearing the signature of Outlierman and the 24 Hours of Le Mans: a celebration of summer, speed, and Italian craftsmanship.
Three models. Three iconic moments. One passion.
Inspired by the moments and icons of the most legendary endurance race in the world, the new LAP, START red, and START light blue models embody the essence of Le Mans, reinterpreted through the sartorial eye of Outlierman designers.

The START pattern captures the historic Le Mans-style start: an explosion of energy, translated into a design that celebrates one of the most iconic moments in motorsport. The LAP design, on the other hand, represents the end of the race, the moment when the race marshal waves the checkered flag to the winner. Together, START and LAP express the adrenaline of the start and the emotion of the finish line: two complementary visions that enclose the full cycle of a legend.
All swim shorts are handmade on Lake Como, near our Outlierman Cave, featuring quick-drying fabrics, elastic waistbands, strategic pockets, and a matching swim bag: details for those who know true style lives in the details.
Outlierman x Le Mans: a collection to collect
The three new pieces are just the latest in the Outlierman x 24 Heures du Mans Limited Edition, born from a partnership that saw our brand interpret moments and symbols of the race through driving gloves and creations in silk and cashmere. Each model is a tribute to the legends of endurance, designed in Bologna and handcrafted in Italy by master artisans who, like the Le Mans drivers, defy time to celebrate an idea: that of a refined and passionate lifestyle.

In addition to the already mentioned Start and Lap, each design tells a compelling story: the adrenaline-filled GLORY pattern celebrates the winning team of the Centenary edition like an artist's postcard of the Circuit de la Sarthe, while the CENTENARY design encapsulates the visual identity of 100 years of Le Mans in a tie with an intriguing geometric pattern and a silk pocket square that merges the checkered flag motif with a quote by Charles Faroux, “The race is immortal.”
The Outlierman x Le Mans driving gloves embody the purest soul of the competition: precision, technique, and emotion. While the CENTENARY design is inspired by the aesthetics of the racing golden age, and the VICTORY model celebrates 100 years of racing feats with a rare braided peccary leather, the MULSANNE, TERTRE ROUGE, and ARNAGE driving gloves translate into design the legendary features of the track – from long linear paths of hand-sewn dots to cotton crochet backs inspired by the highest point of the course and “rock 'n roll stitching” worthy of the most challenging corners.
