Viodia Women's 9" Long Swim Board Shorts with Pockets High Waisted Beach Swimsuits Knee Length Short for Women with Liner

Cooling, super comfortable, modest short, love the feel (softness/flexibility), flat non binding waist and built-in panty. I wear them mostly as shorts currently but really they are most ideal for possible water activities-boating, kayaking, beach, hiking, swimming, maybe walking or biking on a day that might get rainy. I plan to wear on upcoming Maui trip because they are slip on and go, no panties to take along, can take from trail to beach to kayaking to swimming. They are casual/sporty so not that dressy but could be worn into a restaurant. They are good quality, not bulky or super heavy but they are not too thin either. Are decently flattering (I’m curvy). I do wish they were a little cheaper (although they are reasonable). I wish they had a longer length option too (that came to knee like 15- 16” inseam). The deep rose looked deep purple in the online pic so I bought it but when it came, color is nothing like pic, it’s definitely pink (so yes the deep rose name is apt ha). I like the color selection though. A few more print options could be fun.

LOVE these shorts! I ordered the 11” to wear for work. Very forgiving, light wt fabric, meaning stretchy spandex but not tight fitting. Built in panty is comfortable. Great value for the $! I normally wear a large and this Lg was perfect. Would make excellent swim shorts, however for swim shorts I’d order the shorter 9” version, just because I don’t like long wet shorts.

Very comfortable and right length! Will be great for yard work.

In our house, we tend to lean towards swim wear that's a little more modest. My oldest girl doesn't like wearing bikini bottoms without board shorts over them. We decided to try these out due to the floral pattern and the ability to choose seam length. When they came in, she tried them on and they fit perfectly! She absolutely loved the feel of the fabric and after a wash she's used to at the pool at at the beach. She truly enjoys how light weight the material is. She love the pocket depth, and loves that it feel like a really comfy pair of shorts. It's even become her summer go to for hot day. Definitely ordering a second pair for her and a pair for myself.

I hesitate to write a review on these swim shorts before I actually swim in them, wash them and see how they hold up. However, these are one of the very few items I have ordered through mail with which I’m truly happy. The fit is perfect. The material looks and feels like other swim wear I have seen, and they’re even almost flattering, if I wasn’t a size extra large. I can hardly wait to try them out in the pool. I was so excited to receive them in the mail today, because dangerously high temperatures are forecast for my area in the coming week, and I was looking forward to pool time. After being too shy to put on a regular swimsuit all these weeks, I happily pulled on the swim shorts and went to the pool, only to find a sign saying it would be temporarily closed due to a maintenance problem. Sigh.

Comfortable and dries quickly. I wore these in Hawaii and liked that they were not clingy when wet and were easy to snorkel in. They are good for hikes where you want to jump in for a swim along the way. The zip pocket is a great addition.

Love these swim shorts!! I have ugly thighs due to significant weight loss. These shorts are long enough to hide what I don't want seen, but at the same time super comfortable and practical. Two front pockets (helpful) and one back pocket (because it looks cute), built-in panties and a nice waistband, make these my favorite swimwear for summer!!

I will start out by saying these shorts are well constructed. The seams are well finished and do not rub when wearing. They are a nice length (9 inches) and fit well. The liner panty fits well and does not bind and they have deep pockets, if you really need pockets in swim shorts.But, would I purchase them again, DEFINITELY NOT. I bought these board shorts to replace a pair of swim shorts I had been wearing for almost 5 years. And let me say, I swim in an indoor pool for an hour and a half 5 days a week and as I said my previous swim shorts lasted almost 5 years with absolutely no fading and they probably would have lasted longer if they hadn’t been left behind after our vacation. These “new” board shorts were described as being chlorine resistant however they faded badly after only 3 weeks and are now light gray instead of black. I was really disappointed in how fast they faded out. The only thing that did not fade is the liner panty inside the shorts. Also the board shorts were described in the listing as being quick drying and again, they are not. They remain soaking wet and dripping for close to a half hour after exiting the pool. If you are looking for swim shorts you can wear for more than a few weeks then I do not recommend these. I am currently shopping for new shorts but I will not purchase these again.
