TIPS FOR ALL BODY TYPES
The Right Swimwear For Your Body
What makes a swimsuit/swimwear right for you? Honestly, there isn't one perfect swimsuit for every man. We're all different, sizes, bodies, and have different needs. We'll go through what to consider for your body type.When choosing the right beachwear, it's essential to feel confident. Whatever you end up picking, make sure you rock it. Here are a few things to consider when buying a new swimsuit, so you stand out for the right reasons.
LOOK PROPORTIONAL
Tall Skinny Guys
Tall skinny guys tend to worry about swimwear not looking proportional to their body. We recommend shorts. Shorts are suitable for a wide range of people, especially tall guys, as they help balance the ratio of the legs to the torso. Try a pair of shorts that sit above your knee and about halfway down your thigh; this balances you better.

LONGER LOOKING LEGS
Short Guys
You want to add some height while you’re confidently rocking our favourite swimmers. Avoid long shorts. Instead, opt for shorts that sit higher on your thigh or simply go for swim briefs. Not only will these make your legs look longer and more proportional, but they will give you the illusion of added height.

Big Guys
Confidence and comfort are vital! Try knitted fabrics that are stretchy and unrestrictive and will offer the flexibility and freedom you need to rock your swim briefs or shorts. Also, try opting for dark colours and prints. This will create a subtle but noticeable visual balance and streamline your silhouette overall.

ADD SOME BULK
Slim Guys
For shorts, we'd suggest going for woven fabric as they will not hug your frame and add some bulk to your look. Choose swimwear or shorts that actually fit and are not loose-fitting. Loose-fitting swimwear will make you look slimmer than you feel. Excess, baggy and loose fabric is the biggest faux pas. If you're going to rock swim briefs, don't be afraid to go for that form-fitting, body-hugging swim brief.

And Most Importantly...
Guys wear swim briefs that are too tight, too small, too big and baggy, and the list goes on. The right swimsuit for you is form fitting to your body, enhances your best attributes but most importantly, one that fits you right! The difference you feel when you’re rocking a perfectly fitting swimsuit compared to one where you are constantly adjusting and being conscious of it is day and night! Swimwear is all about confidence, and if you’re conformable in whatever you’re wearing, you will rock it!
