Choosing the right Men’s lifeguard board shorts for you

 

When shopping for lifeguard shorts there are 4 factors to look out for: length, fabric, fit, and graphics.

 

The length of board shorts can vary from short lifeguard shorts that sit around the mid-thigh, to longer styles that sit on the knee. The length you go for should depend on how tall you are, how long your legs are, as well as how much leg you are comfortable showing off while poolside.

 

The fit of your board shorts will depend on whether they have a drawstring or elastic waist. Some men find elastic waists more comfortable, while others prefer the adjustable nature of a drawstring. Whatever your personal preference, we are certain we have a style for you.

 

Men’s lifeguard board shorts are available in a plethora of fabrics, ranging from soft jersey materials designed for poolside comfort, to water-ready polyesters and nylons. Lifeguards usually need board shorts that are moisture-wicking, breathable, and comfortable. Before choosing your board shorts, consider whether you want them to be prepared for land-to-water action - in which case, you need to be looking for men's lifeguard swim trunks.

 

Lastly, lifeguards will also want to consider the graphics on their board shorts. Our selection of shorts include completely plain designs as well as styles that feature certain "lifeguard" graphics. Check with your employer to see if they have any rules about graphics and colors.

What color shorts do lifeguards wear?

Today, lifeguards can be found wearing shorts in a range of bold colors. However, traditional lifeguard uniforms include shorts in red or yellow. This is because these colors are bright and distinct and can be seen from far away.

What shorts do lifeguards wear?

Lifeguards typically wear board shorts while on poolside duty. This is because they offer more comfort and coverage while poolside, and can easily adapt to the water if the lifeguard needs to enter the pool. Board shorts can be made of soft materials like jersey or cotton, or more waterproof materials such as polyester and nylon.

What should a lifeguard wear?

Lifeguards should wear a rash guard and shorts, as well as a lifeguard shirt that should be worn at all times to keep the lifeguard noticeable to swimmers.
