ARENA mens Arena Performance Men's Escape Swim Briefs Athletic Swimwear Professional Swimsuit Swim Briefs (pack of 1)

These swim briefs have a good compressing comfortable fit, is made from ARENA’s MaxLife Eco fabric making these last longer and provide chlorine and UV protection, has a slim cut allowing maximum movement and less drag in the water, and finally, these have a really aesthetically pleasing pattern and color. *** THE BRAND SIZE IS >>> NOT <<< THE WAIST SIZE!! MAKE SURE YOU CROSS REFERENCE THE BRAND SIZE WITH THE CORRESPONDING WAIST SIZE TO OBTAIN THE CORRECT FIT *** I am 190 pounds, 6-feet tall, and I usually wear a size “Large”. At the time of order, assessing their size chart, I got a brand size 40 (waist 35 3/8-inches) and ended up being the correct fit. The material is definitely higher quality and made from ARENA’s MaxLife Eco fabric. This fabric is 100% polyester making them great for swimming as it shouldn’t get damaged in chlorine, lasts longer, and gives you up to UPF 50+ UV protection. They are comfortable and appropriately snug against your body with a bit of a starchiness feel, and will definitely wrap and constrict around your shape giving you minimal drag. The pouch has some stretch and should accommodate most men while remaining modest. The material has a really cool modern and geometric pattern print that looks great but also helps with keeping modest, too. The colors are also bold without being too flashy. These do dry quickly especially out in the sun and with the wind. Overall, these are excellent when it comes to swimming or diving for competition but also for tanning and just casual pool or beach wear. The material feels natural and the cut gives minimum drag and resistance. These are perfect for training, tanning, and just hanging at the beach! I appreciate how versatile they are.

These swim briefs by Arena are excellent quality. I love the print detail which is cool and modern. The thickness of the material is just right and relatively quick to dry. The waistband doesn't dig into my skin or rub when I am doing laps. They also stay in place. They are quite high cut and the listing images are accurate so maybe not for those that have any body hangups. They wash well in the machine with no color tranfer or fading, and I don't need to use the drier for them, I just hang on a pant hanger.

I have four swimmer athletes and Arena is the favorite brand for three of them. It is softer and stretchy while still being a thicker material that doesn’t look cheap or wear through super quick. The colors stay vivid for longer too! Size wise spot on with your waist measurements is the way to go. Love the design on this one, fun styling! Great value and comfy fit = two thumbs up!

Good quality, runs big

These swim briefs feel like true performance swimwear. The material feels smooth and durable, and the fit is supportive without feeling too tight or uncomfortable. I like that they stay in place well when moving around, which is important for lap swimming. The black color looks classic and clean, and it doesn’t look cheap or see-through. They dry pretty quickly and hold up well after rinsing. I also think the sizing feels accurate, which makes ordering easier. For the price, I think they’re worth it because Arena is a reliable brand and these feel like they’ll last through a lot of pool time.
