"Another excellent product from you guys. I’ve been using your underwear for years. This is my 1st pair of board shorts and 3rd pair of swim shorts. I’ve got a pair of the 5” and 7” inseam regular swim shorts as well. I love them all. Keep doing what you’re doing."
"Somehow I've spent over $1000 on this site, between undies, cycling liners, swimmers and the now discontinued running short (my favourite). Really like the look and feel of these board shorts. As with all their gear they fit my 'athletic' build nicely. My only complaint is that the one and only usable pocket (if you don't count the back) is on the left side, and one inch too short for an 'XL' phone unless it's naked (actually, I think 1/4" would have made it work). Feels like a miss."
"These are really good quality but i have to return them cause they are way to tight on me even though i am a size 30"
"Love the fit. Zippered pocket is a plus. I found them to be a bit more green than the photo appears but still looks good."
"Had the 5" inseam trunks and enjoyed them, so thought to get these and was not disappointed. Very comfortable and stylish."
