By the beach or sitting poolside?
Here's our guide to sun-ready swimwear.
Patrick Schwarzenegger's 'The White Lotus' character harbours an incredible taste in swim shorts. One may dislike him for being too cocky and full of himself in the series otherwise, but one can definitely not find fault with his impeccable swimwear striped shorts mildly evoking retro basketballers. A great reference point indeed. Another fella worthy of a mention is Jeremy Allen White. 'The Bear' hottie chef swears by his itsy-bitsy swim shorts as he hits the Malibu beach after his workouts. With poolside plans picking up, it's time to ditch those frumpy speedos and invest in season's breakout swimwear pieces like the swim shorts which work both on and off the pool.Whether you’re jetting off for a holiday or just enjoying your break in the city, XYXX’s swim shorts make for a wise investment. The adjustable drawstring allows you to customise the fit, while the soft blue, candy and buttery colourway will work well with most of your existing wardrobe. Each of these nifty pairs mildly evokes the styles popular among collegiate sports clubs.Cut in a wide-leg, above-the-knee fit, they are designed to be both stylish and comfortable.
The Perfect Swim Shorts
When selecting the ideal pair of swim shorts, consider your style and comfort preferences. If you're aiming for a short length, then a boxer length style works as it offers both freedom and versatility. The Classic Fit and Quick Dry style offered by XYXX are designed for those who appreciate a tailored look with mid-length coverage. However, if you're more comfortable with longer lengths then go for pieces like the surfboard options which offer maximum coverage and a touch of classic elegance.
Swim Shorts for Every Outing
Whether you're chilling by the pool, soaking some sun at the beach, or having dinner at a seaside café, XYXX's swim shorts transition seamlessly from water to land. Pair your shorts with the brand's tailored t-shirts or lightweight polos for a timeless holiday look. Crafted in a quick dry fabric to keep you cool and enabling a certified UPF 50+ for sun protection, their chlorine-resistant fabric to prevent fading of colours for durability. Moreover, smart water drain pockets and soft inner mesh liner for extra support add to a utilitarian finish.

Evolution of swim shorts
It's interesting how swim shorts designed with luxurious fabrics have been accepted in a wide array of social settings. These closet staples can no longer be just confined to a pool or a beach. For more casual outings, style them with a white or back tank top or a mesh shirt and trainers. Complete the look with a visor or a baseball cap. They even work wonderfully with a sweatshirt, a linen blazer or a chore jacket.
