Surf’s Up: Simple Tips For Buying The Right Swimsuit

For men, buying a swimsuit should be easy right? Think again. Shopping for the perfect-fitting pair can be difficult. Make a splash this year with our expert tips on what fit, cut and style you need to stand out by the pool or on the beach.

Shorter Is Sexier

It’s scary enough swimwear leaves you practically naked, but don’t be afraid to let your thighs soak up some sun. Out with the old and in with the newer, shorter style. Leave those board shorts at home and try a suit that sits a few inches above the knee. The cropped trunk will leave you looking confident and trim.

Grab Some Attention

There are right and wrong ways to get noticed at the beach. Warmer days are the perfect time to inject some color into your life. Start with classic surf-inspired prints in bright but not obnoxious colors like blue and red. Your shorts are the only thing you’ll be wearing so feel free to be bold. Why not go for something in electric green or pink?

Hide The Heft

If your middle area is less than forgiving then black is your new best beach friend. This classic color helps hide problem areas without sacrificing style. Black also lets you take the details of your suit to the next level. Try a pair with side stripes or a micro pattern. Most importantly, resist the urge to hide your body under a huge suit. Leg openings should be narrow and shorts should still hit above the knee.

Keep The Front Flat

Designers are now blurring the lines between beachwear and clothing. Swim shorts that fall flat in the front look more tailored and flatter any waist size. Steer clear of elastic bands which make you look bigger and look for details like zippers and button fronts. Having shorts that are smooth but not stiff easily take you from the beach to the bar without swapping shorts.

Finding the best suit that suits you doesn’t have to be a chore. Follow these simple tips to easily transform yourself from beach bum to sand babe.
