Men across the world are becoming increasingly more proactive when it comes to keeping healthy and staying fit. A great alternative to going to the gym and pumping iron or running on the treadmill is swimming.
Swimming is also highly enjoyable which is another reason people take it up. Men may find the thought of wearing swimming briefs embarrassing being a little too tightly fit but there are other options available.
While the look of men's swimming shorts have remained largely the same over the years, they have certainly advanced in technology. Typically you will find that swim shorts are fabricated from man made synthetics like polyester and rayon instead of cotton. Unlike cotton swimwear, fabrics like these don't absorb as much water.
If you have ever swum in cotton shorts then you know how much water they absorb and how much drag they cause when swimming. Men's swimming shorts made with modern fibers help to improve performance. Not only are modern fabrics more comfortable to wear since they dry quicker, they also create less drag in the water. The great thing about the modern swimming trunk is its versatility. One minute you're sitting on the beach enjoying the sun, the next in the sea or playing volleyball. Even if you don't plan on swimming they make a great pair of shorts.
Men's swimming shorts come in a variety of lengths usually midway down the thighs. If you prefer shorts that are a lot more modest, you could swim with a pair of board shorts which can come down to the knees. Generally, board shorts have printed designs on them but you can also find plain ones. Designed for surfers they allow the surfer to swim in them, although they aren't specifically made for swimming.
