Men's Swimwear Men's Swim Shorts Australia
Men's swimwear consists of swim shorts, board shorts and swim trunks. Figuring out the difference between them is like trying to understand the difference between a cappuccino, a flat white, and a cortado. The basics are the same, right?
Let's begin with swim trunks and swim shorts. They are basically the same thing, meant mainly for swimming. Board shorts, on the other hand, are made especially for water-based activities like surfing or wakeboarding.
What's confusing the matter of the difference between swim shorts and board shorts is the length. While board shorts are supposed to be longer than swim shorts, the latter also come in different lengths depending on a guy's body type. In fact, there are three swim trunks lengths: short, medium and long, with the shorter inseams being for shorter men and the longer inseams being for taller men.
The one definitive distinguishing feature is the waistband. Swim trunks have an elastic waistband and come with a drawcord. Board shorts, on the other hand, have a fixed waist also secured with a drawcord. This system is designed so the shorts remain secure on the body during water activities. In addition, board shorts are made of special stretch fabric while swim trunks are generally made of ordinary materials like cotton or polyester.
Both board shorts and swim trunks come in a range of stylish options that make them suitable for wearing at a restaurant or bar after a day on the beach.
