Fit true to size. Waist is not stretchy, which I like, and the drawstring/velcro fly is just like every other name brand boardshort.

Pockets are excellent! Rare to find board shorts that can be worn like regular shorts meaning being able to carry your wallet, keys, phone, etc. Liner in the hip pocket is great so things don't poke through.

Recommend you give them a try if you're in the market for some new swimmin shorts!
