Do these work well as swimming trunks?

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

I would say no. The material that they are made of wouldn't do well in water.

Yes. I tuck them into my shorts when I run. They do ride up if you're running or very active but I doubt that will be an issue if you're in a suit.

YES...they are! And NO they don't. They are fabulous, and they repel water but are soft & comfortable. You will be very happy.

Hmm-m-m-m. . . I love thinking outside the box! Yes, I THINK these would work for that. They're stretchy, would cling to your feet, and offer a measure of protection from debris in the sand and heat. I don't know if they would keep the sand completely out though. Don't know what to say about size, except that I take between an 8 1/2 and 9, got a large, and it was a bit big (but no problem for swimming with fins).

I think if you are a strong, fast swimmer they may come loose..... This could be remedied by using goggles to secure them, or a swimming cap. I do a fast side stroke and I haven't had any problem with them coming off while swimming. I also do a slow- medium freestyle and I haven't had a problem with them. I love them....for the price, give them a try. You could always use them for relaxing pool time or work-outs...

I havent tried them in a pool, I have used to hiking and cross under little falls or quick immersions. I havent really use to swimming long distance, I have also used it to do ecuarobics it works.

The bottom will protect your feet, but I find it really hard to swim in booties. AS long as you are not swimming laps, they should be fine.

Yes they work very well. I would use this product for track , running, swimming.

I think they would work for that purpose. There is always plenty of extra room with the Velcro when I wear them on the bottom of my pants legs.

I would not recommend them for snorkeling. But they work well for lap training in a pool.

Mostly yes. The hold back a lot of water but I wouldn't submerge them for a long period of time

To be honest, I don't really know. I just used mine for swimming at the gym pool for lessons. For that, they worked well for me. Sorry.

The pair that i had didn't make it three good months and I only used them for working out but I sweat a lot more than the average person . My thought is if they couldn't handle the occasional sweat they may not hold up good for swimming . Maybe I had a bad pair. I liked them enough to buy another pair .

They do have decent side protection. Its fits construction regulations. But if you're going to be swimming in sawdust or something, that's a different story.

Yes. They Run a little big which would be good if you got true to size to go over swim diaper.

Swimming might prove a tad difficult. They are flexible enough for that but it wouldn't be something I would do numerous laps in.
