Nikben was founded in 2014 by Nik and Ben with a desire to challenge the conventional and stand out from the crowd. Starting as a small swimwear brand known for its bold patterns and playful ideas, Nikben has grown organically into the street-inspired resort-wear brand you see today.

The laid-back lifestyle of sun-soaked resorts, endless margaritas, and carefree moments have shaped the early collections, while new inspirations — like the eclectic vibe of Venice Beach, the tasty taco-culture of East LA, and the charm of resort hotbeds such as Palm Springs and its surrounding deserts — continue to influence the brand’s direction. 

Today, Nikben is a global name in resort wear, offering a capsule wardrobe for the modern, style-conscious traveler. Despite its evolution, Nikben remains true to its roots, maintaining a distinctive attitude, urban flair, and love for sunny vacations and joyful moments, while carving out a unique space in the industry. Where the brand is headed next, no one can say for sure — but it’s a journey you don’t want to miss.
