Mens swin wear seems to be designed to the extremes. Big and baggy like board shorts or almost nothing like racers wear. These shorts are the perfect inbetween. I needed something like this to wear under my wet suit when I dive. I'm extremely happy with the design and fit.

Comments about SPEEDO Striped Surf Runner®:
I am very satisfied so far with this suit. I bought it to replace an old, tired one of similar look and performance.
I selected size L and think it runs slightly small...but it's certainly not a deal-breaker by any means. The overall quality, fit, finish and performance of this suit far outweigh a slight sizing issue.
I've had several of these over the years. If you swim alot, they do tend to wear, color fades and elastic looses it's stretch. However, comfortable for lap swimming especially if you don't like the skin tight racing style, which I don't wear and other style suits are too long.
