How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings, help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyses reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 starsFITS AS EXPECTED, WELL MADE AND GIVES GOOD PERFORMANCE
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 October 2016
I have used Speedo swim shorts for years and have no reason to change to another brand. The always give long service and last exceptionally well. The material shrugs off water and dries quickly.

I have ordered a second pair today, my advice is that when you find something that fits and performs as well as it should do buy another one and put it to one side. Nothing worse than trying to get the same really god item of clothing and finding it isn't made anymore.

2.0 out of 5 starsSmall waist, slim legs. Size up may not cut it.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 February 2017
Always a bit dubious when people say their item is too small or too big as I tend to think they've just bought the wrong size. However.... these shorts are very small at the waist and narrow on the leg. All round uncomfortable to be honest. As with most things though I would suggest that a very lean or slim person may get away with the fit. My thighs are not slim, although I don't tend to have this issue.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fits well, Dries fast, Pockets are useful
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 November 2017
Colour: Black/WhiteSize: MVerified Purchase
I like it and bought it twice. The fit is slightly small. It has pockets and dries fast. Material is okay - can be used as shorts in emergency (not just swim shorts). Used it only a handful of times when I go for swimming occasionally in sea or pool. No loss in colour or damage.

good quality as you would expect from speedo. But I found they come up a bit small so I would recommend order up a size.

Fantastic quality shorts, no problem with that but be warned you have to go a size up on your usual size, these equate to a size down on your usual size, make sure you go a size up, brilliant quality shorts otherwise.

1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible Speedo swim trunks
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 September 2018
Colour: StellarSize: XXLVerified Purchase
Regarding Speedo swim trunks i wish to say how let down and disgusted i am with this item after three swims at the hotel the trunks are devoid of any colour from beautiful blue when purchased to a muddy pale green,just the waistband has any colour left at all. Speedo should be ashamed of themselves after many years of buying Speedo swim gear it is absolutely atrocious. Yet again another item made in China where quality control is none existent Made in China with cheap labour ,inferior fabric you will end up with cheap goods . I will never buy Speedo again Yours angrily. L.Roberts

5.0 out of 5 stars Good quality product at a decent price
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 May 2017
Verified Purchase
Good quality product at a decent price, certainly makes an improvement from typical skull and crossbone designs in high street shops.

Also much better than some of the cheaper stuff found in stores like primark, my past pair from there ripped the first time I wore them.

2.0 out of 5 stars They don't last - they can't stand up to swimming pool water. I expect better from Speedo. Comfortable and good fit, however.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 July 2018
Colour: Black/WhiteSize: MVerified Purchase
Comfortable, look good and fit well.

BUT

I bought these in February, it's now July, they have quickly degraded over this time; the material can't stand up to chlorinated swimming pool water. They have faded and now the fabric has degraded so much they have ripped. Not good considering they are not even 5 months old. I expect better longevity and quality from a brand such as Speedo.

I like the style, cut and length of these swim shorts. Often styles are too long and drag down when wet. These are good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Happy
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 October 2017
Colour: Navy/WhiteSize: LVerified Purchase
After many years of use, I finally disposed of my trusty budgie smugglers and bought these as a replacement. It's difficult to compare with other makes without trying them all, but I'm very happy with these. They're comfortable, look good, dry quickly, and fit perfectly. A good choice.
