Having trouble finding the right trunks. They have to be figure hugging ones, apparently. He refuses to wear the ones I've found. He wants them long enough - coming half way down towards knee length. But these don't have drawstrings to tie up and fall down when he dives in (!). The trunks with drawstrings are too short - briefs really.
I'm at a loss. Usually I'd say just wear one of the many pairs we've tried - like it or lump it, but last week he bunked off swimming and lied to us (very out of character, and was really upset when we worked it out by the lack of chlorine smelling, and damp stuff in his bag). He said it was just because of the trunks. I'm not sure that is the full picture but want to take this out of the equation by getting trunks he's happy wearing.
Any ideas? Thanks.
