Where can I find men's short boxer swim trunks?

I swim laps in Speedos, but being in the good old USA I need something a bit more conservative to
wear in social situations. I really don't like the current fashionable styles that go down to the
knees, but can't find any "short shorts". Anybody know of a source for these? Like maybe a 10-12"
side seam.

Ok, first, go with what you feel comfortable in, dont worry about where you live, or the situation.

Second, if you are that worried, go with a "jammer" most store that sell speedos, and baggies sell
those. They are different lengths and they have the benifits of not being loose, and long enough to
"look like everyone else".

just remember, why spend money on something htat you dont like!!

BTW I'm your northern neighbour and we are the same as the usa is. but I wear a speedo unless i am
around people who may find it "morally wrong"
 
I found a decent swimsuit boxer style, not to long, at International Male or Undergear. I think it's
call the "Windsurfer Trunk". About $25 plus shipping.

Any triathlon supply store will have what you need, Desoto is a good brand to look at.

Thanks very much, Dave. If you have one of these at hand, would you mind measuring it for me? The
websites don't have that info. I just need to know how long they are - along the side.

You're welcome. I'm lucky, socially I usually swim nude (I am a nudist). Ironically I don't wear
speedos for lap swimming, I wear the aforementioned swim trunks since nude is not an option wear I
swim my exercise laps.

Sounds like fun, but they don't allow nudism where I live, except for people who really shouldn't be
seen nude. :)
