So i just got back into swimming after 20 years and needed a pair of swim trunks. I thought I'd buy a pair and see if I liked them before buying more. Ended up using the one pair everyday and hand washing them. The dry well with the gym spinning dryer, are light and seem durable enough when hand washing.I'd love to say they are smaller than the sizing chart which prompted me to order one size up but realized.maybe I'm just a lot bigger than I would like to think I am. I ended up buying a second pair today and eventually, maybe a third pair.Mesh doesn't irritate me in the privates like my old pair of swim trunks and the waist band has an extra 3 inches in case you grow but hopefully with the swimming, they will end up being too big after a few more weeks.
