In a country where temperatures tend to be on the warm side most Australians love a good pair of shorts. The real problems arrive when we consider what constitutes a "good" pair of shorts & more specifically when we talk about lengths. For some the anything less than capri-length board shorts are too risqué while others wear something so small it's hard to even consider it actual clothing. These Soulland joints definitely fall farther to the "short" side than anything else, probably pushing the shortest inseam we've had in the store before.

Built from a  fully recycled polyester, these are made to be a swim short but in the sense of they're what Europeans consider a swim short. What that really means is they're a nice skimpy pair of shorts that could be worn in the water if you wish. They tried to really make this obvious with the classic mesh lining that's a universal signifier that these are for swimming in. If you don't roll with the additional support gang, you can always give it the snip to roll free & easy. The question is, if you take out the old mesh undies are they even swim shorts anymore?

Existential crisis' aside these are a pretty sweet pair of shorts should you wish to wear them for aquatic activities or not.
