Wonder swim shorts
I have 2 pairs and wore them on recent beach vacation. Paired them with various rash guards from Landsend. Great for someone wanting sun coverage!

Lovely, deep color and a great fit.
I'm very happy with both the quality and color of the shorts. I also bought a swimsuit, and the shorts were a perfect match.

Perfect for beach walking!
I like that they are longer shorts, and very quick drying after getting wet. I bought without the attached panty and glad I did. Usually wear with regular panties since I don’t swim in them. Perfect for beach walking! They do make a slight swishing sound when walking, but at the beach you don’t hear it with the breeze and wave noise. Would love to have deeper pockets- you can’t keep anything in these except a few sharks teeth or beach pebbles. Ordered my usual size and they fit great and very comfortable. No chafing! Happy with this purchase!
Great shorts

Great shorts, pockets, great length
My neighbor had these shorts and I just love the way they looked on her and she said she loved them so I tried them and I love them too.

Might run big
The orange-y peach color ran slightly big on me though I ordered according to the size chart, however I also purchased the same pair in black and it fit perfectly. Gave it 5-stars because these Board Shorts are a high quality item: style, material, colors, comfort and overall quality.

Great material
I bought these for the pool and they are perfect. I’m 5’4” and weigh 145 lbs. The size 10 fits perfect and the longer length hides my chubby thighs. I bought one pair with the attached panty for the pool and another without for days I just need waterproof shorts. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a versatile pair of shorts. Light weight and great to pack for vacation too.
