We may not have headed to the ocean this summer but we headed to the beach. At the lake! There’s sun, sand and water and that’s all we needed to enjoy a quick weekend getaway with the kids. Along with family and friends, we headed to Kentucky Lake for 3 days of camping and swimming fun. I love the water but hate the fact that swimwear for men typically chafe and take forever to dry.
We teamed up with DryFins Swimwear and received a complimentary pair of men’s board shorts to put to the test on our recent trip.
Crystal, the kids and I planned on getting in the lake and to do so I needed a new pair of swimming trunks. The pair I had were old and have that mesh lining in them. I hate that thing! It rubs, it chafes and it’s downright miserable to wear when wet. I usually end up just cutting it out. Needless to say, I was really looking forward to trying out these DryFins swim shorts and here’s why.
They have a liner but it’s not mesh! You can see it pulled out in the following photo.
Instead, they have a silky, quick-dry liner that fits like a pair of boxer briefs or bike shorts. The fabric is really soft. It has a silky texture to it making the shorts very comfortable to wear. They look good dry too so I was able to wear them all day at the campground as well as at the lake.
These board shorts have two deep pockets on the front as well as one with a hook/loop closure on the back to hold keys, wallet, etc. Just remember to take them out before you get in the water. Nobody wants a soggy wallet or dripping cell phone.
The waist band is elastic and also has a tie to tighten them with. I really like the length of these shorts. They are board shorts and come to the knee. I don’t like swim trunks that are really short. I prefer the longer ones like these.
The DryFins swimwear for men held up great and I didn’t experience any chafing or rubbing from the liner when we were out of the water.
They are available for both adult men and boys and come in blue, red and green and several different sizes.
I’m glad we happened upon this brand of swimwear for men. I’d definitely recommend these DryFins swimming trunks to my guy friends.

Haha I don’t know if my husband will be ok with this.
The guys say it is really comfortable. No mesh lining bunching up or causing a rash. 😉
My husband still wears his bathing suit from years ago since he rarely goes swimming.
Clay doesn’t go swimming as much as he used to but he said having a comfortable swimsuit makes it more enjoyable so he’ll probably go more now.
Not sure about these don’t think my husband would wear them.
My husband says they are very comfortable.
Y husbands bathing suit is over 20 years old with the matching jacket.. he will never try anything new…..
20 years? That’s a long time for a swimsuit!
I think these are great. My hubby and 16 year old son would wear these as they hate the Mesh lining.
According to my hubby and brother-in-law, that mesh lining is miserable. I can see where it would be, especially when wet. Ewww.
We never go swimming. I thought all suits were quick dry.
Too interesting. Too fun. I have not been here or heard of this.
They are very nice looking.I wonder why they stopped making these kinds of swim trunks!?
What a super idea! Maybe you’re going back to your car or hotel room ,meanwhile your clothes are drying
I know nothing about mens swim wear. I’d just change clothes afterward.
I love these shorts. My husband and son could really use a pair like these shorts. Thanks for letting us know about them
We will have to check it out. These swim suits are interesting.
I really don’t think about mens swimwear. I rarely go swimming. my husband and I never do.
I love these shorts. Hubby could really use some new stylish ones!
My fiance would love these – he hates walking around in wet shorts! In fact it’s part of the reason he refuses to wear swim trunks and never wants to come in the pool with us. Lol. Maybe this will convince him to swim a bit more!
I love these! My husband needs a new pair of swim trunks. The elastic waist and tie would make for a great fit. The length is nice, too!
Do they make some for women as well?
I don’t know why they’d put mesh lining in a guys swimsuit. That doesn’t sound comfortable at all.
I bet my husband would like a pair of these swim trunks.
These are so cool,what will they come out with next?no more wet seat in the car,camper,etc I love this idea
My husband would really love these.
Very cool. I had no idea there was a “quick dry” option.
I’ve noticed that the last two pair of swim trunks we bought my husband didn’t come with lining at all which meant he had to wear undies underneath. That really takes a long time to dry! He’s never complained about the mesh lining chafing or rubbing but I’ll bet it does. I’ll be checking these swim trunks out right away.
Creative changes to the design. The guys in my family would love that. Keep up the good work.
Great article; thanks for the info on the quick dry swim trunks.
Sounds like a great product, unfortunately my fiancee doesn’t do a lot of swimming.
What? I wish they had these years ago when my boys were younger! This was their #1 complaint!
I will look into these my husband and son hate the mesh lining in men’s swimsuits trunks.
This idea is so cool! Kudos whoever had this idea it’d terrific ! Dad’s always get sent to the snack bar or the car/hotel room for something ,how cool to not be dripping water as u do .
Sounds like a great product. Quick drying is the way to go with suits.
I wish we lived close a beach!
If you carry a wallet in the swimsuit but need to remove it before entering the water, where do put it? Maybe a waterproof pocket would work.
My husband needs a pair like this! He currently wears a separate piece underneath but these that are built in are very handy!
I know nothing about a guys swimwear. I suppose, comfort is first.
I have enough trouble dressing myself.Let the guys figure it out for themselves. Comfort is number one.
This is such an awesome idea needing to change or waiting to dry off is no longer an issue
My Grandson hates that mesh & usually wears his long basketball shorts instead so he’d probably love these.
I wonder if they’re going to do this for women as well it’d be fantastic
These seem a LOT more comfortable than the mesh-lined swim trunks!
I’m not a water loving person. I can’t get past all of the things in a lake or ocean. I’m not putting myself in it.
going to do a bit of checking to see if I can pick up a few pair of these
These are nice and without mesh so much more comfortable.
