Micro-Geo Swim Trunk
The Micro-Geo Swim Trunk by Canadian brand SAXX is a men's swimsuit with a 5-inch inseam, made from fine, stretchy quick-dry fabric. It features the micro mesh 3D BallPark Pouch front to reduce skin-on-skin friction, a semi-elastic waistband with button fly, slant side pockets, a rear zip pocket, and rounded hems. Designed for swimming and water activities, the navy micro-geo patterned trunk includes a comfortable built-in liner, though some users have noted the material may feel stiff.

Product Insights
The Saxx Micro-Geo Swim Trunk offers a stiff polyester shell for durability and a soft, chafe-preventing micro-mesh liner that dries quickly, with a rear zip pocket for securing belongings, but the material stiffness limits flexibility for high-intensity swimming and some find the outer shell frumpy; it dries in 15–30 minutes, resists chlorine, and requires rinsing and line-drying to preserve elastane, with sizing that runs tighter than underwear.
Verified claims
- Material feel
- Buyers report a stiff polyester shell and a comfortable liner.
- Active support
- Buyers report adequate support for water sports but less flexibility for high-intensity use.
- Comfort
- Liner prevents chafe during land use; some buyers describe the fabric as stiff.
- Fabric performance
- Fabric dries in 15-30 minutes and resists chlorine.
- Everyday design
- Slant pockets and rounded hems give a casual look; rear zip pocket secures belongings.
- Dry time
- Feels dry to the touch in 15–30 minutes, with a mesh liner that dries without clinging.
- Post-swim rinse
- Rinse in fresh water after swimming to protect elastane and color.
- Drying
- Shade-dry or line-dry; avoid heat to prevent fading and preserve stretch.
- No softener
- Avoid fabric softener to maintain quick-dry performance.
- Sizing
- Saxx swim trunks generally fit the same as Saxx underwear; order your usual Saxx underwear size and check the size chart for individual variation.
- Care
- Chlorine-resistant polyester; elastane degrades if not rinsed after use.
- Rear zip pocket
- Holds a phone or wallet; larger phones may be a tight fit; small items like keys are ideal for swimming.
- Swim support
- Micro-mesh liner prevents chafing and dries quickly for active swim.
- Flexibility
- Material stiffness may limit flexibility for high-intensity swimming.
- Everyday/hiking use
- These trunks can double as casual shorts for everyday wear; community discussions mention using them for hiking and backpacking, though the BallPark Pouch and swim liner may feel less traditional than standard shorts.
- Saltwater durability
- The polyester-elastane blend should hold up well to saltwater.
- Rear zip pocket water resistance
- The rear zip pocket is designed as a secure, water-resistant compartment, though exact dimensions are not specified.

User criticizes Saxx bathing suit for stiffness
I hate mine. So stiff and frumpy. Do you have ones that have more flexible material?

I wear Saxx Go Coastal shorts for hiking/backpacking, the built-in liners are great for avoiding chafe during long days on the trail.

User strongly endorses SAXX swimwear for its liner
Have you tried SAXX brand swimwear? The liner is super soft, stretchy and ultra comfy. I will only buy swimwear from SAXX after trying them last year.
