The season may be over, but the beach is heating up. Grab a pair of your favorite NBA team boardshorts from the good people of Quiksilver. Looks like only the best teams get two color ways. (I kid, but really…)

I’m trying my best to not overload on the Olympics too early since there’ll be plenty to discuss once July rolls around, but have a glance at Nike’s TurboSpeed track suit, as shown on Allyson Felix and Walter Dix.
