Great style, very comfy shorts, 36" waist = XL, however, not colourfast

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 January 2019

Size: XLColour: Speedo NavyVerified Purchase

I'm a 36" waist and the XL size is spot on. Shorts are really comfy with pockets and drawstring. However, if you regularly swim in an indoor, chlorinated pool as I do every day, they will last approximately 30-40 days. At this point, they will turn from lovely navy blue to a blotchy shade of grey. So after 6 weeks, they are consigned to the bin. This is the second style of Speedos that have done exactly the same thing ie fading colour. I have contacted Speedo directly in the past but seemed to be fairly disinterested in the problem so perhaps I need to choose a different manufacturer. Just always thought Speedo were top end, maybe not. Refunded by Amazon - great service.

Smart Shorts!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 December 2018

Size: XLColour: Speedo NavyVerified Purchase

Great quality. Size wise I’m a 36” waist and these fit perfectly (bought XL size) the mesh inside is finer than most and is comfy, plus the material of the shorts is superior quality to most cheaper types you’d find in supermarkets or fashion retailers.

The length is just about around my knee and I’m a 30” leg (so i take a ‘short’ trouser fit, regular would be 32” leg) and that’s fine. Smart dark navy colour, so will be fine for the local pool and fine for holiday wear too. Might buy another pair if I can actually motivate myself to go swimming!!

Overall, very satisfied 5 stars

Ordered a size up from sizes stated here, fits perfect.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 October 2021

Size: LColour: Speedo NavyVerified Purchase

Read the reviews, check the size guide fro supplier and order the next size up for a good fit. These run a tad slim/tight otherwise. Apart from that, great swimming shorts.

Size: LColour: DanubeVerified Purchase

I bought these trunks as I already have the same style and size (L) bought bought from Sports Direct. These trunks are definitely a tighter fit despite being labelled large, I'm on a diet so hopefully they will fit better soon.

Quality product highly recommend

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 April 2016

Size: XLColour: Speedo NavyVerified Purchase

I bought these as I need some new swimming shorts, my old ones were very faded from several years of swimming lessons when growing up. They fit as expected and the pockets are built into the shorts, so they don't turn inside out in the pool like my last pair. Having pockets is convenient, but it did mean I accidentally when into the pool a few times with the room key when on holiday.

Ideal for lane swimming.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 April 2016

Size: XLColour: Speedo NavyVerified Purchase

They arrived quickly and are good quality. I do a lot of lane swimming for fitness and these trunks are ideal. Lightweight. Elasticated waist with draw-string. I read the other reviews and a size chart would help. I am a 38in waist and I bought XL and they fit well. I have just ordered another pair in a different colour. Very pleased.

The shorts that I bought were a xl but the mesh on the inside feels and looks like a medium therefore they are too tight

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 March 2018

Size: XLColour: Speedo NavyVerified Purchase

Unfortunately the mesh on the inside of these shorts are too small. The shorts that I bought were a xl but the mesh on the inside feels and looks like a medium therefore they are too tight. There seems to be no common sense with clothing measurement especially when they are made abroad.
