Upgrade your beach kit

We’ve all watched with a mixture of envy and distain (a stray shot always has a tendency to land dangerously close to our groin) as two bronzed Mediterranean types smack a small rubber ball to each other on the beach. While our efforts appear a bit pathetic in comparison, thanks to beach brand FB Collection, we’ll look a damn sight cooler in the process.

Their bat and ball collection, FB Frescobol – after the game’s Brazilian nickname – is a collection of two hand-made bats, each made from an off-cut of sustainably sourced wood, and two rubber balls. The kit comes nicely packaged in a mini tennis bag so everyone knows you mean business.  

The set is available from Selfridges priced at £110.00. For a full list of stockists or to order online visit - www.fbcollection.com.
