Item Spotlight: Swimwear - Topic of the day 6/30/24
Whether in your backyard, an amusement park or in the great outdoors for many swimming is on the docket. What are you currently wearing into (or alongside) the water? What features do you like in your swimwear? Do you wear swimwear in any other contexts? And are Patagonia Baggies really the "do everything short"?

Dark blue Patagonia Baggies, with the inner mesh
</thread>
I got these Kestin Hare x Boardies ones with lots of other little swimmers on em
They also fit pretty much like patagonia baggies
oh i like that
very cute
i settled on these stussy water shorts a few years ago after trying a bunch of baggies and baggies-like shorts from other brands.
Sample sale orlebar brown setters in a bright blue color
Generally prefer no mesh lining
But then what lining does it use instead??
None / self lining. They’re pretty snug as is
For baggies it makes sense I think
baggies + rubber birkenstocks to the pool or beach 😎 winning combo for me
Thrifted these over the winter
I’m a really big fan of these duck camp shorts tbh i’ll probably grab at least one more pair
Also i ALWAYS cut the mesh
I usually don't wear much designer but I've got these Versace swim trunks that I really love
Nothing too loud just a simple short black trunk with the Greca border waistband
But tbh swimwear is one of those domains of clothing where anything goes, like truly the louder the better sometimes
Made the huge strategic error of getting rid of all my baggies because I forgot you could use them as swimwear too
F
Swimwear is like the only thing I can flex with anymore. I’ve got a buncha dumb swimsuits lol
Team Baggies here too.
Couple of observations about baggies: 1) I was surprised how baggy they are. I usually wear medium, and that's almost too big. 2) I noticed that, compared to many other swimsuits, the fabric doesn't trap air, which is very annoying when it happens
A couple years ago I went on a trip to the DR and I wanted a different swimsuit for every day there. From left to right: Todd Snyder, CDLP, Ten Thousand, Jacquemus, Carne Bollente, Commas, and Todd Snyder. In hindsight, this many trunks may be unnecessary.
