Swimwear & Swimsuits for Boys
Boys' swimwear on this page covers competitive swim team suits, recreational swim trunks and board shorts, and sun protection sets from toddler through teen sizing. The right pick comes down to how the suit will be used: daily pool training, weekend beach days, or first swim lessons.
Competition Jammers and Team Suits
Jammers are the standard boys' swimsuit for swim team practice and meets. They run knee-length with a compression fit in chlorine-resistant polyester that holds shape through a full season of daily training. Athletic sizing runs 22 through 44, a numeric scale that corresponds to US youth sizes 7 through 17. Brief-cut swimsuits cover the same size range for competitive swimmers who prefer a shorter cut. For race day, see boys' competition swimsuits and boys' swim jammers.
Swim Trunks and Board Shorts
Swim trunks are shorter, lighter, and faster-drying than board shorts, making them the standard pick for pool days and family trips. Board shorts run longer with a more relaxed fit for beach and surf use. Both are sold in toddler through teen sizing. See boys' swim trunks and boys' board shorts.
Sun Protection, Learn-to-Swim, and Toddler Gear
UPF 50+ rash guard sets pair a long-sleeve top with a swim bottom for full-day outdoor pool and beach sessions. Float suits add foam panels at the chest and back for toddlers and new swimmers building water confidence. Swim diapers are required at most public pools for children not yet potty-trained.
