Columbia Men’s PFG Rambler Water Short

I should begin by noting that Amazon initially shipped this suit in the wrong size (XXL) and replaced it with the correct one (M) after I contacted customer service.As you would expect from Columbia, this is a quality swimsuit. The polyester is soft, pliable, and lightweight (unlike “stiff” bathing suit fabrics). The sizing is accurate: Medium fits my 33″ waist perfectly. The suit seems well-made and has a nice appearance.There are a few potential drawbacks. The inner liner is soft, but the leg openings are on the small side, so if you have larger upper thighs you may be bothered by the snugness (though this may loosen over time). Having a zippered back pocket is a plus, but only if you’re right-handed, since the pocket is on the right. I’m not wild about having the drawstring on the outside of the suit rather than the inside, though this is not uncommon. I’ll also mention that this isn’t the most stylish bathing suit I’ve worn; I can’t put my finger on it, but there’s something about the cut that makes this suit appear more “blocky” than others I own.I can’t comment on the suit’s sun protection feature because it’s not yet summer here in the northeast USA.Bottom line, if you’re right handed, don’t have thicker legs, and aren’t picky about style, I would recommend this suit. For everyone else it’s still probably a solid choice despite the drawbacks I mentioned.

My son loves, very soft and stylish!

You can’t go wrong with Columbia shorts. I bought these for my husband and he absolutely loves them. He wears them in the water and as regular shorts. They are perfect to just throw on and go. For reference, my husband is 5”6 and weighs around 175. I purchased him a size medium with a 6 inch inseam and the fit is just what he needed!
