Men across the world are becoming increasingly more proactive when it comes to keeping healthy and staying fit. There are hundreds of ways to keep fit and one of the best ways to do so is by swimming.
People of all ages find swimming easy to start and very enjoyable as well as beneficial to health. The idea of wearing skimpy briefs can be a little embarrassing for men, but fortunately there is other swimwear to choose from.
Men's swimming shorts have been round for decades and while the style has generally stayed the same, the technology hasn't. In there early days swim shorts were made from cotton but nowadays more often than not they are made from rayon or polyester. Unlike cotton swimwear, fabrics like these don't absorb as much water.
Cotton swimsuits absorb so much water that they drag and take a long time to dry. Fortunately the performance of men's swimming shorts have vastly improved with the development of new fibers. Not only are modern fabrics more comfortable to wear since they dry quicker, they also create less drag in the water. They are incredibly practical too and provide a dual functionality. One minute you're sitting on the beach enjoying the sun, the next in the sea or playing volleyball. You can even treat a pair of trunks as a regular pair of shorts.
You can find all lengths of men's swimming shorts but generally they are mid-length or shorter. If you prefer shorts that are a lot more modest, you could swim with a pair of board shorts which can come down to the knees. Often they are very colorful and have prints on them. It's fine to swim with surfer shorts but they will cause more drag than swim shorts.
In comparison, men's swimming shorts can look rather plain and not particularly fashionable. But you will be able to find a range of colors. When out looking for some swim shorts, go for a pair that short but not so short that you'd be embarrassed. You won't see professional male swimmers wearing long swim shorts and that's because of drag. So if you want to swim faster, pick one that is shorter.
Swimming briefs, although rather short are your best option if you want more speed in the water. While they might be a little embarrassing to wear initially no one is going to take a second look as they are quite common. On top of choosing the right swimwear, pick a pair that is the right size as you won't want them slipping off when swimming.
