Great Shorts good for me

For a recent trip to Hawaii I was looking for Swim/Board shorts, I tried several store and couldn't find anything that fit comfortably or had a print or cut that I liked. When I had all but given up I decided to try ebay figuring I could always return them if I didn't like them. I ordered a couple brands and I was very impressed by the Aptos trunks, so much so that I immediately ordered a second pair. The fit is great and comfortable, they have a good and comfortable liner and they held up…

Pros
  • Nice texture and color pattern. Good buy
Cons
  • Pockets are too shallow and items easily fall out

Order a larger size than your normal

Follow the ebay size/fit recommendations and the size chart on the listing. The listed sizes are actually smaller than standard US sizes, and the trunks run small. The trunks I have worn for many years are 3X, but the same fit in these is 5X, and the size chart in the listing reflects that discrepancy.I ordered the same design in 3 different sizes just to be sure, and other than receiving one of the sizes in the wrong design they seem to be an okay quality for the price.

Pros
  • Looks Good.
Cons
  • Way too small for a 4XL

Love these swim trunks!

I have had these for about a month and used them a bunch in my new hot tub. I got a more expensive pair of Speedo trunks at the same time, and although they are a little bit nicer quality, they were also 50% more money ($30 as opposed to $20 for these). These seem to be good quality (relative to the price), are very comfortable, look nice, and fit well. I'm very happy with them, especially for the price.

Pros
  • ebay timely delivery and product availability and comfortable fit
Cons
  • Material traps heat and becomes uncomfortable in hot weather

Comfortable best in my review

I think these shorts are great very comfortable and fit great. The only downside is they are swim shirts and have the liner in them. I cut it out and wear them all the time.

Pros
  • It was a gift for my Husband. He loved it & it fits him just right
Cons
  • No sun protection built into the trunks

Fit OK but not my favorite

These look pretty much exactly like the picture and fit OK. They just don't fit exactly the way I would like them to though. They are a little too long and bunch out around the waist due to the elastic. It might just be that I don't like the way I look in bathing suits as a middle aged man though.

Pros
  • The swim trunks were for my son who is a big guy. The 2x fit him just right!
Cons
  • Logo placement is unappealing

Good fit and not too short

I bought three of these with different patterns and they all fit well (ordering based on amazon's recommended sizing). They have a drawstring and an inner mesh lining as you would expect. They're pretty flexible and the colors were true to what was displayed on the screen. A great purchase overall -usually men don't have a lot of options for what color swim trunks they get, but there are a lot of choices here.

Pros
  • Fits well. Not as long as shown and a little flimsy, but it'll do for the summer.
Cons
  • Length of the trunks can be awkward for some

Great shorts and they fit me perfectly !

I saw these randomly looking for swimming shorts and had to grab them. I love how bright they are because I love bright colors. And they also fit great on me. The image is what it said so I am happy . Thank you

Pros
  • my husband didn't complain so I'd say they are good
Cons
  • Trunks do not offer enough support for certain body types

Best swim trunks I’ve bought in a while

They fit just as expected 6,0 250 and got the XL and they weren’t tight or loose. Only thing I did not like was the liner but easily cut that out.

Pros
  • My husband liked it
Cons
  • Tends to show sweat marks too easily

Ordered for son should of went down a size.

Fit like they should but I should've went down a size. The boy list some wait in his waste line. Tru to size That's my feedback.

Pros
  • Love the pictures
Cons
  • No option for longer or shorter inseam

Great gear for an ole fart, like me!

Ok I am a 60 year old dude going to the beach for the first time in quite a while. No Speedo for this Grandpa, now that would definitely be indecent exposure! These are just above the knee and look pretty sharp on this old guy and I think would be great on not so old guys too!They are thin so should dry quickly and we’re extremely comfortable!

Pros
  • Nice fit and comfortable true to size
Cons
  • Trunks can slip down while diving

Runs larger than the advertised size.

I am a big guy with a waste of 48". So, based on their measurement chart they recommended ordering a 5XL, which I did.Unfortunately the short was too big when I tried it. I have returned the 5XL and ordered a 4XL instead, and this time the waist size was correct. The short are "baggy" though, so even if the waist was good, it's very loose on the legs area.Otherwise, color is great and material is lightweight. For those interested, this short also has some white fabric mesh inside (see photos).

Pros
  • Comfortable and cool looking!
Cons
  • Design is too basic and lacks creativity

Big Boyz trunks on my review.

Could stretch a Lil bit easier. Usually use 3x.ordered 4x n probably needed a 5x for extra comfort n stretch But overall they look good

Pros
  • good fit and love the design and color.
Cons
  • Pockets are too bulky and make the trunks appear misshapen

Attractive on my husband; he likes them

He chided me for calling them "cute". He's 6', 215#, BUT he has to wear an orthopedic back brace, even in the pool or at the beach--I call them corsets; he demurs and calls them "braces". The 3x was good because of extra room for the.corset. BUT, if you do not have that need, he says a 3x is too large for 215#.Appears to be well made, with a light but strong fabric. Now, on to the "pool testing"!

Pros
  • I need a bigger size and this fits preictally. Beautiful also.
Cons
  • No customization or personalization options available

Holding up good best in my review

I ordered these "swim trunks" last March as an alternative to athletic-wear. (I have the black and green ones which I'm not too sure they offer anymore, at least I don't see them.)To keep this short:Cons- Pockets could be deeper (phones - seem to ONLY be getting bigger and more expensive.)- The velcro for the back pocket no longer sticks, at all. (but that's not sayin much)For negatives, that's about where this ends. I wear my clothes and shoes into nothing! So, at this point I'm quite…

Pros
  • I’m a 34" waist and the medium size fits perfectly.
Cons
  • Seams can come apart after multiple uses

Pattern is very weird in person.

Pattern was not what it looked like on line. It has random words, people, skulls on them. Not what a normal 40 or 50 y/o would want in their swim trunks. Returned.

Pros
  • Fits well, looks good.
Cons
  • Not made very well

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I like them on my review.

I’m 6’ 1” tall and slim. I wear a 30” waist and the small fit well and are long enough. I hate shorts that are too short but these are good.

Pros
  • I bought a 3XL and my waist is 40 . Perfect fit. Thin material but it seems like it might last .
Cons
  • No easy care instructions provided

Size not quite accurate

I like the style and Hawaiian patterns but I recommend buying one size bigger you can always use the draw string. Thanks Thanks for attention!

Pros
  • Nice looking bathing suit. Comfortable to wear. Dries quickly.
Cons
  • Not wrinkle-resistant and requires ironing
