Spring Travel season is here and before you know it summer will be here. So, it is time to start thinking about the perfect swimwear for men.
A man’s sense of fashion doesn’t usually extend to the beach, but that doesn’t mean you can’t look good in a swimsuit. If you’re going to the beach, you might as well look good while doing it. You should consider your body type when choosing which swimwear to buy.
Now is a wonderful time to upgrade your swim trunks, whether you’re looking for something simple to go to the beach or attempting to wow someone at a rooftop pool. The days of over the knee and crazy print board shorts are long gone. We recommend something a little shorter and more fitting.
It is time to plan your next Spring Break and know which swim shorts you will be taking on your trip. Luckily for you we have prepared a list that will make it easy for you when you start packing. Below are our recommendations on the best swim trunks for guys this year from Fair Harbor.
The Anchor
This short is best for swimming, running, yoga, surfing and all things active. Go from the beach to a run on the boardwalk and then a game of basketball on the same day without worrying about changing outfits.
With an 8” inseam, the Anchor is Fair Harbor’s longer trunk option and is designed for performance. So while you are playing basketball you don’t need to worry about chafing since there is no more mesh. Instead this swim trunk is made with BreezeKnit™ technology, which is a liner that’s soft, supportive, and 100% chafeless.
The Bayberry Trunk
The 7″ swim trunk is best for swimming, lounging, walking, and transitioning from the pool to the bar. There is need to go back to your hotel room when wearing these swim shorts. Hang out by the pool, go to the bar, have some lunch and just lounge around the hotel lobby seeing what action you will pick up.
The Bungalow Trunk
Going to be on the beach all day? Then this trunk is great for laidback days on the beach, boat cruising, pool hopping, and Sun-Soaking.
This style has attitude and it is reflected in the vibrant hues and vintage-inspired wash. The Bungalow is built for lazy days in the sun, with a 5-inch inseam. This is what we meant above when we said go a little shorter.
The Sextant Trunk
This is our absolute favorite swim short and you can see why just by the name, SEXTANT! The Sextant trunk is just pure sexy. Add a little swagger to your beach look and show off this style with confidence.
The Sextant swim short is best for summer pool parties, sight seeing, lounging, afternoon cocktails or that rooftop party you will be attending.
These are the most elevated shorts ever, with a tailored fit and a 6″ inseam. They also feature side-elastic fasteners to provide ultimate stability.
So, be bold on your next vacation or this summer and show off your physique in any of Fair Harbor’s swim trunk selections. From solid shorts to bold prints and cuts, their swim trunks are designed to turn heads and show off your hard work in the gym.
