The elastic waist with the drawcord actually stays put when my son's running in and out of the waves, which was my main worry. The mesh liner dries fast too, and after a whole summer of chlorine and sand they still look new.

The mesh liner makes a huge difference—no chafing even after a full morning of boogie boarding and digging in the sand. The waistband stayed put without digging in, and the quick-dry fabric was ready for round two by lunch.

The print is what caught my eye, but the mesh liner and elastic waist are why I'm coming back to buy a second pair—they dry fast and my son actually keeps them on all day at the beach. He's worn them nearly every day for two weeks straight and they still look brand new.
