Barrel, the go-to water-sports brand, has unveiled its second collaboration with Peanuts.
Titled "Snoopy and Friends' Summer Stories," the collection celebrates the Peanuts gang soaking up sun and surf. Barrel translates iconic Peanuts lines and character art onto boardshorts and swimsuit prints, preserving the original charm while layering on the brand’s signature, vivid colors.
On the swimwear side, playful diving- and swimming-Snoopy motifs capture the action-packed spirit of water sports. During the April 17 pre-sale, items featuring the diving Snoopy graphic proved especially popular with shoppers.
The full lineup spans 55 pieces — from swim staples like rash guards and swimsuits to accessories such as dry bags and bucket hats. With both adult and kids sizes, the range makes it easy to pull together couple or family coordinating looks.
The swim-cap selection is a standout. It features a variety of expressions and scenes of Peanuts characters like Snoopy and Charlie Brown, and some caps even show different Snoopy faces on each side for a fun, smile-inducing surprise. The swim caps will be released in phases starting at the end of April.
Barrel will officially launch the collection in its stores nationwide starting April 24. For a limited time, customers who spend 150,000 KRW (approximately $112.50) or more on collaborative apparel and other items will receive a Peanuts string pouch while supplies last.
