Mens Swimwear

The Men's Line at a Glance

Mens swimwear is the store's men's swim line — quick-dry pieces built for the water, from pool laps to beach days. It is a small line of 19 styles, from about $23 to $36, cut and sized for men.

The collection spans the coverage range of men's swim: briefs at the minimal end, trunks and boxer briefs in the middle, board shorts longest.

Briefs, Trunks, Shorts and Board Shorts

The 19 styles divide by leg length and cut:

• Swim briefs — the minimal cut; low-waist and Brazilian-style pieces.
• Trunks and boxer briefs — a short leg for more coverage.
• Swim shorts — sporty mid-length pieces.
• Board shorts — the longest surf cut, some with pockets.
• Edge pieces — cotton running shorts sitting on the pool's border.

Leg length is the dial — briefs to board shorts.

Brief vs Trunk vs Boxer vs Board

The cut names map onto coverage:

• Brief — no leg; the minimal, low-waist silhouette.
• Boxer brief — short fitted leg; support with coverage.
• Trunk — short loose leg; the middle cut.
• Swim short — mid length, sporty.
• Board short — long surf cut to the knee or below.

More leg length equals more coverage; the name tells the length.

Cut, Fabric, Use

A short order for the 19 styles:

• Pick the cut — brief, boxer brief, trunk, short or board.
• Check the fabric — quick-dry knits for water use.
• Match the piece to the day — laps, surf or lounging.
• Confirm the size chart on each listing.

Cut, fabric, use — then the chart.
