Full details
These Polo Ralph Lauren swim shorts are designed for adult males seeking comfortable and stylish swimwear for pool or beach activities. The key benefit is the blend of classic fit with modern features like stretch fabric and a mesh lining, offering both comfort and support. A potential caveat is that the classic fit runs wide on the leg, which may not suit everyone. Key features include an elasticated waist with a drawstring, side welt pockets, a buttoned back pocket, and an inner mesh brief for enhanced comfort and security. They are made from a durable polyester and elastane blend with a polyester mesh lining.

How do I choose the right size?

Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight or too loose at the waist
Adjust the drawstring to achieve a secure and comfortable fit. If the waist is fundamentally too small or large, consider exchanging for a different size.
Pockets feel insecure for small items
Utilize the buttoned back pocket for more secure storage of essential items like keys or a small amount of cash. Be mindful of water submersion when storing items in pockets.
Fabric feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are washing on a delicate cycle at 30°C with mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or high heat drying, which can stiffen the fabric. Rinse thoroughly after each use, especially after swimming in chlorinated or salt water.
