If you’re a Star Trek fan who wants to update your summer fashion, check out ThinkGeek‘s latest swimwear collection before boldly going to the beach, lounging by the pool, or traveling to a nice vacation planet.

On Thursday, ThinkGeek revealed a five-piece Trekini swimwear line inspired by The Next Generation. There are three styles to choose from, and the line will surely engage the interest of any fan of the science-fiction series. 

The one-piece swimsuit option sports the design of the show’s classic uniforms and comes in one of the three familiar uniform colors—red for command, blue for science, and gold for operations. The outfit, complete with pips and an embroidered combadge, has removable bust cups and two adjustment options for the back hook.

Two pieces in the collection will add just the right touch of Star Trek to any swimsuit.

The Deanna Troi swim shirt will let you bring some of the counselor’s style to your own outfit, with a look based on Troi’s iconic lavender jumpsuit.

A comfortable-looking, slightly-more-subtle cover-up romper has gold piping, a gold drawstring, and an embroidered combadge tacked on (instead of stitched on, as with the other items).

Prices range from $39.99 to $59.99 with sizes available from small to 2X for the swim shirt and one-pieces and small to 2X-3X for the romper.

It’s definitely a fun collection, and who knows—ThinkGeek might even expand it to include other characters’ memorable fashions if enough fans ask for them.

You can see photos of the line below and learn more about the collection on ThinkGeek’s website.
