Do these work well as swimming trunks?

if you use an underwear beneath it , i'm sure they could work well as swimming trunks.

Yes... I am a new swimmer, but a mature woman .. I tried longer fins at my pool, but they felt clumsy. These are perfect for me. They help me move through the water, and work a bit harder. I love them. I ready one review about pressure on your arches, which is true. If you have a high arch you need to stretch them a bit. but they are worth the effort. New swimmer

I can't answer 100% as I only use them on beach. These are perfect on beach as flexible and not too tight. However, I would think in a fast water stream you would need something stiffer and tighter so they would not come off as easily

I believe they would work well for skiing, they are thicker than standard thermal underwear, without being bulky. I think the activity statement pertains to construction or building trades.

I have bought 2 of them to protect myself from the sun but do know they are good on colder days so would think they would be ok for swimming.

yep as long as the water does not get over the top :) just be careful when you bend over :) they work great for me.

Good question. I only have used them out side of the water. They fit very snuggly. If I was home now I would test it for you but I am at work. Sorry I could not be of further assistance.

They wouldn't be any good for swimming. They are vented so water would get in.

Yes, I'm sure they would be okay in water. They are elastic bands with a plastic button.

Yes, they are very ligth and comfortable, the sole is thin, you can swim for teaching only!!! They fill like a glove

I use mine in the fall and winter to get in and out of my kayak without getting my feet wet and cold. They are waterproof so I'm not sure they would work well for your purpose. Might look into water shoes specifically made for pool use.

They are like "gummie bears"...so try it out with gummie bears and if they float, these will. I bought them, but didn't float them. They are very light...I would think so.

I would buy the covers just for swimming. These don't work very good. I just saw plastic covers by the swim stuff at Target.

You can use it for lap swimming but should note that the ribbing on teh edge of the sleeves and the legs is a bit tight...even with many uses, I found them tight.

I don't see how these pants can help you improve floating. That should be more about technique that you can consult with a swimming coach ;-) !!

Haven't used them under water but since they're silicone and fit snuggly should work ok, though they're not slid having ribs.

Can you wear these in a pool? Yes. Should you? No. They are soft neoprene, which is why they are so comfortable. I'm guessing that the stitching would give way pretty quickly if there were submerged several times. Do a search on Amazon for "pool exercise equipment" (no quotes). You'll find a wide range of stuff that provides resistance while in the water.
