Are 7” inseam swim trunks & boardshorts the same?
Summer is the favorite season of the year for many people. The sun, the beach and a pina colada to refresh a hot day, is indeed the paradise for many, and we can understand why. Of course, when you go to the beach the first thing you look for is swim trunks, and in the case of men, most of them prefer wearing board shorts instead of swim trunks, mostly because the boardshorts are larger.
However, there are some swim trunks with 8” inseam, which make them almost as long as boardshort. Which comes to a common question, are 7” inseam swim trunks and boardshorts the same thing?
The answer is tricky, they are similar but they are not the same. And yes, maybe for a common eye which doesn’t know a lot they look similar, but here we are about to mention some of the differences.
The fit
Basically the 7 inches swim trunks are made to be attached to the body, they are larger but fixed to the legs. On the other hand, boardshorts are large but loose, which provide freedom to the legs. It’s easier to walk and play any beach sport with these kinds of shorts.
At the beginning, boardshorts were manufactured thinking of surfers, these shorts provide the comfort and freedom they need to move on the surf table. They most of the time need to protect their legs to avoid chafing when they are waiting for the perfect wave on the ocean.
The design
Some men are shy, and don’t like to show their legs, for those men the Boardshorts will be an ideal option. These shorts are designed to provide freedom to play sports, for jogging, for the beach and more, and at the same time protect the legs. This is another difference with swim trunks.
