I use it for water sports and swimming. It is extremely comfortable.

I absolutely LOVE the swimsuit! I was weary that it would be a little too short but I think it is perfect. (I ordered a size small, I am about 5'7")

I think it looks a bit snug on the model, but if you are a little on a thin and not so muscular side it will fit perfectly.

Looking forward to wearing on upcoming beach vacation. Preppy look but short and sexy.

The short plaid swim shorts are the best!!! They feel comfortible and keep their size after many washs. My girlfriend thought they were too short at first, but she got used to them when the other girls on the beach were looking at me ...

Cut low in front, Comfortable fit, material feels good.

These are nice looking trunks, but they tend to blouse at the sides if you have a modest backside (like me).  Construction is good, color pattern is funky, and looks like it'll wear well.  Snug at the waist, but not tight.  Looks best with a flat stomach.  Too late for me to return mine, but if you're fit with a nice bum, it'll look good on you.
