Product Insights

The Fan Palm Swim Short by Saxx combines a permanently sewn-in BallPark Pouch and compression liner to prevent chafing and ride-up, delivering a close, secure fit ideal for men under 5'8" or with muscular thighs, though the fixed liner sacrifices loose-fit flexibility and demands cold wash and hang-dry care; its stretch shell, high-hip slant pockets, and rear zip pocket (an exclusive design) offer a modern, sporty look, and at $49.95 (44% off $90) it represents the lowest-priced Saxx 2-in-1 swim trunk with a rear zip pocket.
