HEY AND WELCOME
...into the wonderful world of Budgy Smuggler
Our story started with a little joke when some friends decided to write "Budgy Smuggler" on the back of a pair of swimming trunks. Many people ask us why "Budgy Smuggler" in fact, it can be translated as "Little Bird's Hideout" we won't draw you a picture...
FOR WHAT? The two explanations we prefer are the more impressive: "It has to do with trademark law, you wouldn't understand" and the more mysterious: "we are not people of details, we are people of concepts".
Unfortunately, we didn't realize the misspelling until it was too late to go back. So Budgy Smuggler should have been Budgie Smuggler.
All of our swimwear is made with love in Sydney Australia!
Fun fact: in 2018 Budgy Smugglers were voted 'the UK's most unloved clothing item' which we're quite proud of.
We were 3 times more unpopular than turtlenecks! This title is a true testament to our innovation and hard work.
Our mission is to have a pair of Smugglers or Smuggettes on every beach in the world.
Before you leave, take a look at some of our tasty new treats...
Happy Smuggling,
The Budgy Team
