Best brand for Lifeguard shorts.
Have tried many other brands but they''ve come up short, so to say.
Deep well tailored pockets are very convenient and  keep stuff from falling out when you sit down.
Preferred the tie on inside of waist band as was previous styling but Nike seems to going with the current trends as pretty much all brands have the tie on outside.
Only criticism is the elastic gives out after a while. Honestly not sure if it gives out before other brands because of the 4 or more different type suits I have, its always Nike I prefer and so they are in Chlorinated water much more than any other.
For me definitely worth the higher price.

-Excellent quality build product from NIKE
- Cool decorations add pizazz!
-Can''t go wrong with Nike and Swim Outlet!

Fit is good - only real problem is the tie keeps coming loose during swims, even when u really tighten it down.

I ordered these for my son who is very tall.  I thought they had a longer inseam, but I read the description wrong.  My fault.  So, he''s not happy that they are above the knee.  However, they look fine and will last a long time.  They are a very nice material and nice weight fabric.  Just wish I''d ordered a longer pair!

Fit well; has liner so a board short would be a nice option; color was great.

This is the only lifeguard swim suit my son will wear because it always fits.  He is in the water daily during the summer and this suit is a winner!  Plus, customer service at SwimOutlet is prompt and trouble free.
