Review on Volcom Boys' Elastic Waist Surf Swim Trunks - Optimal Sizes for Big & Little by Dave Knain

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Volcom swim shorts: great design, average quality

With an elasticated surf waistband, the Volcom Boys Swim Trunks are a stylish addition to your child's swimwear collection. The Ribbon Red color and design is eye-catching and perfect for wearing to the beach or pool. The swim trunks have an elastic waistband for a comfortable and secure fit, perfect for active boys who love to run, jump and dive. The material is lightweight and dries quickly, a benefit for parents who don't want to leave their kids in wet swimsuits all day. However, the quality of the material is not as high as we expected and after a few washes the colors started to fade. Also, the sizing is a bit off and we felt the size large was too small for our 12 year old boy. All in all, these Volcom swim trunks are a worthwhile purchase for their design and comfort, but don't expect them to last more than one season.

Pros
  • Crafted from premium materials, these swim trunks are built to withstand the elements and rough play. They can be worn over and over again without losing their shape or color.
Cons
  • Elastic waist only
