Review on Columbia Palmerstone Short Twill Small Sports & Fitness by Ben Alvarez

A zip pocket is required For all holidays

My husband likes these. He has a hard time finding swim shorts or even pants that fit around his waist and don't try to slide down. They have a very nice elastic band, but there is an adjustable waistband. Not only are these his swim shorts, they're the only shorts he's ever worn. The great thing is that they have a zip pocket for your wallet, cruise card or just money on the beach. There used to be models with two zipped pockets, but we at least take them with one zipped pocket. He is 6'1" and 59 years old and has a 9" inseam, a very good length. It looks like the long board shorts kids wear, but it doesn't look like Larry Bird's shorts. They have an inner mesh hammock for the boys to be comfortably held in. Like I said, those are the only shorts or panties he wears. They're perfectly acceptable as shorts with a casual shirt in Key West, in the tropics, or on a cruise.
