Product Insights
The Simons Embroidered Cropped Swim Short at 79 CAD is a shore-length, retro-resort 5-inch cropped swim trunk whose mid-thigh hem visually lengthens the leg, especially for men 5 foot 8 and under, and whose drawcord waist fits your usual waist size with a few centimetres of adjustment; it uses a 92% recycled-bottle polyester/8% spandex quick-dry shell and a 95% polyester/5% spandex mesh liner over a full-brief inner slip that lets you swim with nothing underneath while keeping the light-toned shell opaque when wet, and every size from small to X-large is priced the same with no size upcharge, though all sizes are currently out of stock. The cropped cut's benefits—faster drying than 7-8 inch trunks, resistance to the parachute effect, and maximal sun exposure for tanning—come with the needs for more sunscreen coverage, sand embedding in the mesh liner's open weave and resisting rinsing out, wet mesh liner dragging against the thighs and chafing on long or high-intensity days, liner and encased drawstring waistband staying damp after the outer shell dries, and hand-wash-cold-and-separate-in-mild-detergent care with flat shade drying, no bleach or wringing, plus fresh-water rinsing after each swim because strong chlorine and hot tubs fade the print fastest; it is a shore-length style rather than a lap suit, so racers choose square-leg shorts or briefs.
Verified claims
- Inseam
- The 5-inch inseam visually lengthens the leg, flattering men 5 foot 8 and under
- Sun exposure
- The cropped hem maximizes sun exposure for tanning but takes more sunscreen to cover.
- Water behavior
- The 5-inch cut dries faster than longer 7-8 inch trunks and resists the parachute effect.
- Sand
- Beach sand embeds in the mesh liner's open weave and resists rinsing out.
- Chafing
- Wet mesh liner drags against the thighs and can chafe on long or high-intensity days.
- Coverage
- The mesh liner stops the light-toned shell turning see-through when wet.
- Quick-dry
- The quick-dry shell sheds water faster than a 7-8 inch trunk, though liner and waistband stay damp longest.
- Fit
- Take your usual waist size; the drawcord waist adjusts a few centimetres either way.
- Size pricing
- Every size from small to X-large lists at the same 79 CAD, with no size upcharge.
- Waistband construction
- The encased drawstring waistband stays damp after the outer shell dries.
- Care
- Hand wash cold and separate in mild detergent; dry flat in shade, no bleach or wringing.
- Embroidery fade
- Rinse in fresh water after each swim; strong chlorine and hot tubs fade the print fastest.
- Cut length
- The 5-inch inseam lands mid-thigh, a retro-resort crop that lengthens the leg.
- Sizing
- Take your usual waist size; the drawcord waist cinches a few centimetres either way.
- Material
- Shell: 92% recycled-bottle polyester, 8% spandex; mesh and inner slip are 95% polyester, 5% spandex.
- Mesh lining
- Mesh lining lets you swim with nothing underneath and keeps the wet shell opaque.
- Swim length
- Shore-length rather than a lap suit; racers choose square-leg shorts or briefs.
- Styling
- Cropped hem above the knee gives a retro-resort look, not a long trunk.
- Size availability
- Every size from SMALL to X-LARGE is out of stock at 79 CAD.
- Liner
- Mesh liner over a full-brief inner slip: swim with nothing underneath, shell stays opaque when wet.

Compared within this brand.
| Embroidered Cropped Swim Short: Choose this if you want a lightweight, quick-dry swim short with a cropped mid-thigh cut, built-in mesh lining, and an adjustable elastic drawstring waist. It suits shoppers who like an all-over repeating palm-style motif in a lighter tone, want a secure Velcro back pocket with a drainage eyelet, and prefer recycled materials — the shell is 92% polyester made from recycled plastic bottles with 8% spandex. It comes in sizes small through extra-large; note the motif's embroidered-style appearance in photos is not confirmed as actual embroidery, and the relaxed fit shown applies to the photographed model.[1,2,3] | Natural Drawstring Geo-Pattern Swim Short: Choose this if you want men's swim trunks with a distinct look: an allover small geometric print in light shades with tiny turquoise accents on a dark navy ground, cut at mid-thigh with a short 4-inch (10 cm) inseam and relaxed straight legs. It has an elastic waist with an adjustable drawstring, built-in mesh lining, and side slit pockets, and the lightweight shell is a recycled polyester blend (55% polyester from recycled plastic bottles, 45% polyester). It comes in sizes X-Small through X-Large, so it suits shoppers comfortable with a shorter, patterned silhouette rather than a longer plain trunk.[4,5,6] | Parasol-Stripe Swim Short: Choose this if you want a reversible, mid-rise swim short with a built-in microfibre lining, a drawcord-adjustable elastic waist, and a short 4 inch (10 cm) inseam with side slits. Its light, fast-drying non-cling stretch fabric is 92% polyester made from recycled plastic bottles with 8% spandex, and it offers slit pockets plus a hidden zip pocket behind. It comes in Navy/Midnight Blue and Orange in sizes small to x-large, though the Orange color is not offered in small.[7,8,9,10] |
