A perfect fit. on my review.

I prefer a longer leg swim shorts and this fits the bill. True to size, it is not too compressing but will stay where it needs to. It does not wear out, been a year since I got them, but if they ever do, i would buy another pair.

Pros
  • The shorts is the right length for me. That's exactly the way I want it.Thanks.
Cons
  • The shorts are not suitable for all body types

Good Design and Quality - Be aware of Fit Issues

I have found that the most helpful comments include the reviewer's size information, so let me start by saying that I am over 60 years old, 5' 4" tall, weigh 135 lbs. and have an hourglass build with a 37" bust and 42" hips, and am short waisted. I ordered this item because I was looking for a longer leg for better sun protection instead of the short bottoms I have for a rash guard, long sleeve top. These bottoms are well made with what seems to be quality materials and have a separate panty…

Pros
  • Women
Cons
  • The shorts do not have any additional features, such as a built-in liner or pockets

Where Have You Been All My Life

Perfection. Very comfortable. I bought a tankini to wear OVER the shorts. Really cute A-line look when all worn together. Skin protected, but I also wore a rash guard jacket. Great beach day and very comfortable swimming. Also bought them in black with the drawstring. Still not sure which version I prefer. I think the ones without the drawstring are very good.

Pros
  • My wife just likes them!!
Cons
  • The shorts do not have a flattering cut for some body types

Just what I was looking for

I bought these to wear getting in and out of my daughters above ground pool, that has a tall ladder with several steps in order to get in and out. ( no worrying about exposure while wearing the skirted bottom that came with my two piece bathing suit) The fit and stretch were as expected. I am 5’5 and these covered my thighs and ended about two inches above knee- not restricting at all. They are well made.

Pros
  • Needed something for exercise class , they work great, glad I ordered them‼️
Cons
  • The shorts are too short and do not offer enough coverage

snug fit but okay for swimming

drawstring came out immediately but they are snug fitting so luckily not really needed. I plan to wear this for tubing and swimming, so far they seem very comfortable and lighweight.

Pros
  • I purchased these for swim lessons and I love the fit.
Cons
  • The shorts are not comfortable for all-day wear

Great purchase best in my review

I have only tried them on at this point. I will be wearing them in October when I travel to the Dominican Republic. I love how they feel on my body.

Pros
  • Wish they came in more colors.
Cons
  • The waistband stretches out quickly and loses its shape

Great Fit for the Price

I ordered these swimming trunks after experiencing frustration trying to find a similar product in brick & mortar stores. I am a plus size lady and I hate the way the swimming suits fit at the bottom and just wanted coverage but still being comfortable during swimming. I ordered a size larger after reading the comments and the fit was perfect! The waist band stayed in place, the leg did not roll up or bunch up in between the thighs and I will purchase another one for a backup. I wore these…

Pros
  • They were a little smaller than I expected but they feel and look nice.
Cons
  • The stitching is poor quality and comes apart after a few wears

Doesn’t roll down during aquasize

I am normally a size 10 but had to return for a 12. Good stretch, comfort and able to move freely during exercise in the pool. Doesn’t roll during water aerobics.

Pros
  • Made with high-quality materials, these swim shorts are lightweight, quick-drying, and stretchy, ensuring maximum comfort and flexibility while you swim, surf, or lounge on the beach
Cons
  • The shorts are not suitable for women who prefer high-waisted swimwear

Great stretch and feel

Size down when you purchase. Or if you’re in between sizes. Feels good against skin. Not think material. That's my review!

Pros
  • Very nice for swimming
Cons
  • The shorts are not good for high-intensity water activities

Just What I Needed for my opinion

These shorts are just what I needed to complete my swim outfit for summer vacation. Good quality and price point. They seem durable and are fairly flattering swim shorts. They are also comfortable. Good purchase.

Pros
  • Took a while to get, but loved the color. I do water aerobics and these trunks work great for that.
Cons
  • The design is outdated and not fashionable

Active swim wear good for me

I prefer to wear a swim short and tankini top for my summer activities. These are the perfect fit and length for swimming.

Pros
  • Versatile Style
Cons
  • The shorts are not fashionable enough to wear outside of a swimming setting

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Comfy and practical

I needed swimsuit bottoms and I don't like anything that shows a lot of leg so I picked up these. They're comfy, flattering, dry quickly, and fit well.

Pros
  • I ordered my usual size and the fit was perfect.
Cons
  • The color options are limited and not appealing

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Low rise, not for me.

The liner of this is low bikini height. If you want bike shorts that hit low, these are for you. They weren't for me though.The fabric is nice and on the thicker side. Honestly, I really liked the way they felt. Just can't do the cut.

Pros
  • They are shorter waisted than I care for but good fit otherwise
Cons
  • The shorts are not versatile and can only be worn for swimming

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Comfortable on my review.

I needed something to wear underneath swim shorts for water aerobics. These Firpearl board shorts are perfect. They are not bulky. They are not real tight in the legs or waist. The swim shorts I wear have attached panty, as do the Firpearl board shorts, but material is light weight so I do not feel like I have 4 layers of cloth on.

Pros
  • These are nice! I wanted something long enough for coverage!
Cons
  • The sizing is inconsistent and runs small

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Almost five stars. good for me

First off, the thing I love most so far.it's been more than one week of swimming (in chlorinated pool) and they haven't faded. I swim five days a week and have tried a few brands and each one starts to fade after one week of swimming for an hour each day. Yes, I rinse them, but doesn't matter. So this brand wins just on that factor. Black is still black two weeks in.Why I took one star off? I wish they were slightly higher in the waste. When I'm swimming (for exercise), I want to feel secure in

Pros
  • I had hoped it would be true to size, but it's not, need to buy a size larger
Cons
  • The waistband is not adjustable, making it difficult to get a comfortable fit

Everything was as expected

good construction, fabric was thinner than expected, but still good for the price. It does snag on rough surfaces though.

Pros
  • Swimsuits & Cover Ups
Cons
  • The shorts are not suitable for diving or other intense water activities

Liked the fitted inner panty

I did like the fact they had a panty liner. Unfortunately, they didn't go up as high as I wanted and had to return them for a different kind. They are great if someone needs them to hit lower on the waist.

Pros
  • Love this for working out in the pool.
Cons
  • The shorts are not available in a variety of colors and sizes

Saggy in areas best in my review

Purchased a size 10 which is my normal size. These are comfortable bottoms but they sag horribly in the front area, despite the stretchy fabric. I'm keeping them because it's too late to exchange before a planned trip and they did work as expected when we went to a pool party. But I am disappointed in their fit and would not buy again.

Pros
  • Great material quality stretchable, dry fast bought a few more different colors. Definitely recommend
Cons
  • The shorts are not comfortable for women with larger hips

Mixed feelings on my review.

I liked that the pants give you that slimming affect and are true to size. They are comfortable and dry quickly. My first time buying and I’ve been wearing them for 3 months. Since then, the pants have stretched out in the waist and hip area, the color seemed to have faded quickly and now look as though I’ve owned them for a few years! Cheap material! I won’t buy again. Sorry!

Pros
  • Fit was excellent and shipping was fair
Cons
  • The shorts have too much material and feel heavy

Glad I purchased them

I purchased these swim shorts bc I'm making up my own bathing suit combination. Since I will be in Florida at probably the hottest and worst possible time (and since I haven't lost enough weight), I'm planning to wear these shorts with a short or long sleeved rash guard swim shirt. My tender old skin will be fairly covered and protected from dangerous UV rays and I will be comfy not showing too much skin lol.

Pros
  • Not bulky
Cons
  • The shorts do not dry quickly, causing discomfort after swimming
