I will use these shorts when I go kayaking. I will not use them when swimming in a swimming pool because the cleaning instructions say not to bleach.  The shorts look just like the picture on the website. I am very happy with them. They match a Reebok swim top that I have, perfectly!

Great shorts.  Would recommend.

You get what you pay for with these shorts.  There is no give or stretch in the fabric at all.  Made it really hard to do anything active out of the water.  Would probably be fine for someone with narrow thighs, which mine are not.  I also feel the inseam seems shorter than what it looks like in the picture, but that may vary with size.

I liked that this short wasn't thick like a true board short. The material is soft.  I use them mostly for a swim cover-up.  Order a size larger than you normally would wear.  The elastic waistband is pretty tight.

My daughter looks great in them. we are in the water all the time (year round) since she is on a swim team.  always looking for a good coverup

These shorts have a short inseam.  I thought the fit wasn't very flattering, and didn't like the stitching.  They looked kind of poofy.  My advice would be to order these a bit bigger than you want so they hang instead of bunching up.
