Swim shorts, the most versatile swimwear

FAQ

Why wear underwear under swim shorts?

Usually unnecessary and uncomfortable; it dries slowly and may chafe. Choose lined swimwear or fast-drying performance underwear.

Best swim short color for fair skin?

Dark or warm tones (navy, forest, burgundy) give contrast. Skip cool white/neon if you don’t want to stand out.

Why do we wear swimwear?

Hygiene, protection and comfort in water: support, coverage, UV protection and reduced drag.

Why avoid baggy swim shorts?

They add drag, slow you down and may raise hygiene concerns. Many pools require fitted styles for cleanliness and safety.

Where should you wear fitted swimwear?

In pools with strict rules, training/competition and water parks. Also useful under a wetsuit or for intensive swimming.

What is fitted swimwear?

Close-fitting briefs or boxers that stay put, dry fast and reduce drag—often lined, with drawcord.

Which swimwear in France?

Many French pools require fitted briefs/boxers. Baggy shorts are often banned for hygiene/filtration reasons.

Why are swim shorts no longer allowed?

Hygiene, filtration and safety: loose shorts bring more dirt and create drag. Pools therefore prefer fitted styles.

How should a swim short fit?

Comfortable, not sloppy: waistband stays put; legs mid-thigh without restricting your kick. Quick-dry fabric.

Difference: short vs long swim short?

Short: more mobility, less drag. Long: more coverage and a casual look. Check dry time and pool rules.

Short or long swim short?

Pick short for swimming/speed; long for comfort and beach style. Check pool rules and your mobility.

What to wear under a swim short?

Prefer nothing extra: choose a model with mesh lining. Underwear underneath may chafe and dries slowly.

How to wash swimwear best?

Rinse immediately, hand-wash with mild detergent, no softener/bleach. Dry flat out of sun; avoid dryer and rough surfaces.

How to find my swim short size?

Measure waist/hips and use the brand chart. Band snug without digging; legs close without riding up.

Why choose swim shorts?

Of course, the range of swimwear for men has never been as extensive as it is today. As a man, you can opt for a traditional swim slip, but it is also possible to choose a swim boxer or swim shorts. Many men still prefer the latter and that's because swimming shorts have a number of nice advantages. First of all, swimming shorts look very contemporary. In addition, swimming shorts can also be worn as shorts. Just quickly put a T-shirt over it and you can dive straight from the stand onto the terrace (or vice versa)!

Available in different lengths

One swimming short is definitely not the other, on the contrary. When you take a look at our selection, you will see that you can choose between men's long swim shorts and men's short swim shorts. Besides the length, you can also find a tight as well as less tight swimming shorts. The swimming shorts men tight (not to be confused with the tight-fitting swimming boxer!) look a lot more sporty than the less tight swimming shorts.

Buying swim shorts can be in a style to suit you

When you go to buy swim shorts, not only the model is important. The color is also an important consideration. What color swim shorts match white skin? We wrote a blog about it and in it you learn that a swim shorts khaki green might look better on you than a swim shorts green. Are you going for a solid color, do you want a floral print or swim shorts with a retro look? In our shop you can use the filter to make your wishes clear! Filter by color, type of swim trunks, size, brand or price.

The market is rich with brands. Some brands are more famous than others but all will respond to swimwear trends. It is often the affinity you have with a brand or the question of how deep you want to dip into your pockets that determines which brand you want to go with. In our shop you will find various brands for various budgets in various styles. Think Björn Borg, Brunotti, Muchachomalo, Nickey Nobel, but also Shiwi swimming trunks men.

Beware, men's swim shorts are not allowed everywhere

Although wearing swim shorts has many advantages, there is also one disadvantage that we cannot leave unsaid. This is because wearing swim shorts is not allowed in every country. France is known for this but is not the only country. Why you have to wear tight swim trunks in France has to do with hygiene and that rule only applies in swimming pools. If you decide to go to the sea, you can wear swimming shorts without any problems.
