About Us

Sean & Val is a gay-owned swimwear brand rooted in friendship, comfort, and a love of the beach.

It started with two best friends who wanted something simple: a swim brief that looked good and felt right. Over long beach days and late-night chats, we kept coming back to the same idea—what if swimwear could feel personal? What if it made you feel like you—not like someone else’s idea of sexy?

So we made our own.

Inspired by old-school Fire Island summers, Mediterranean ease, and vintage cuts, Sean & Val is built for people who want to feel confident without having to perform it. We design with subtlety in mind—flattering cuts, understated colors, and just the right amount of nostalgia. Every suit is crafted with soft, high-quality materials sourced responsibly, built to last more than just a season. Our swimsuits are made to move with you, not against you—because your swimsuit shouldn’t make you work for it.

We believe it’s about more than what you wear—it’s about how you feel. The first dip in the ocean. The friend who makes you laugh so hard you can’t breathe. The playlist that hits just right as the sun starts to set. The quiet comfort of being around people who get you. Those are the moments we design for—the little ones that end up meaning everything.

Sean & Val is a reflection of the community that inspires us: creative, thoughtful, sentimental, inclusive, and supportive. Our suits are shaped by the people who shaped us—our chosen family, our friends, and the strangers who feel like home the moment you meet them. 

So whether you're heading to Fire Island, the Mediterranean, or your local pool—come on in.

You're welcome here.
