Product Information
Full details
The Vilebrequin Bubbles Turtles 3D swim trunks are designed for adult males seeking comfortable, quick-drying, and travel-friendly swimwear. Their key benefit lies in their ultra-light, packable design that easily stores in its own back pocket. A minor caveat is the reliance on a drawstring for a secure fit, which may not suit everyone. These trunks feature a playful 3D turtle and bubble motif, an elastic waistband with a drawstring, side pockets, and a back pocket for storage.

FAQs
Are these swim trunks suitable for competitive swimming?
These trunks are designed for leisure and comfort rather than competitive performance. The loose fit and drawstring may not provide the hydrodynamic advantage needed for racing.
How do I know which size to order?
Refer to the product description for specific measurements, such as the side leg length. It is recommended to compare these measurements with a pair of swim trunks you already own and find comfortable.
Can I wear these swim trunks as casual shorts?
Yes, their stylish design and comfortable material make them suitable for casual wear, especially in warm weather or resort settings, when paired with a t-shirt or polo.
What is the difference between the 'short length' and other cuts?
The 'short length' refers to the inseam and overall length of the trunk, offering a more classic and sometimes more athletic silhouette compared to longer board shorts.
How durable is the packable feature?
The packable feature is integrated into the design of the back pocket. Repeatedly folding and unfolding may eventually cause wear, but for typical travel use, it should remain functional.
What material is the lining made of?
The lining is made of 100% polyamide.
Troubleshooting
Swim trunks feel too loose
Adjust the drawstring to secure the fit. Ensure the knot is tied tightly.
Slow drying time
Ensure the trunks are thoroughly rinsed with fresh water. Wring out excess water gently before air drying in a well-ventilated area.
Print fading or peeling
Follow the recommended care instructions, specifically avoiding high heat, direct sunlight when drying, and harsh detergents. Hand washing can also help preserve the print.
Fabric feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and that the item is fully rinsed. A second rinse cycle might help. Avoid fabric softeners, which can sometimes affect quick-drying properties.
