Recommendations for swimming shorts please

[valleyofadventure]

I love the idea of wearing swimming shorts instead of bikini bottoms, but am not having much luck finding any. I really like these (Marco Polo) but they're sold out everywhere in my size.

Any recommendations for something similar? Don't want black and would prefer a pattern - and if there was a matching bikini top, so much the better, but not strictly necessary. I like them quite short too, like these.

Watching this thread voa - I've been wondering the same. I'd wear on top of a swimsuit and was looking at boardshorts, but also wondering if I should just get running style shorts from sweaty betty / lululemon

I have the Boden swim shorts I love them and I'm not a Boden fan.

You could try men's swimming shorts

I bought these for gym but realised too short for me to feel comfortable! So have started wearing them for weekly swim lessons with the toddler. Wear over swimming costume.

Decathlon do women’s swim shorts with matching bikini tops.

Lands End. I love mine.

Have a look at surf brands- Roxy/ Billabong/ O’Neill. They are a bit more pricy, but worth it!

Thanks everyone, these are all great suggestions, lots of choice
