Product Insights
The Saxx Tropical Palm Tree Swim Trunk offers a quick-drying, chafe-free experience with its integrated micro-mesh BallPark Pouch and non-cling polyester fabric, drying within 15–30 minutes and shedding water quickly. However, the 88% polyester resists chlorine and saltwater while the 12% spandex may degrade over time, and the printed pattern may fade from sun and chlorine exposure. A more affordable version ($49.95) exists but only in X/XXL in one print, making the main tradeoff between cost, durability, and limited options.

Deep Research
Real-world dry time and non-cling behavior
- High-quality polyester-based swim trunks typically feel dry to the touch within 15–30 minutes after leaving the water — a benchmark that matters for anyone moving directly from a swim to a beachside activity without a wet, heavy suit.
- SAXX's swim line — including the OH BUOY shorts that share the same polyester-elastane blend — has been field-tested across pools, lakes, and saltwater by reviewers who specifically cite how quickly the fabric dries, giving this palm-print trunk a proven performance pedigree beyond the lab.
- At 12% spandex, the shell provides 4-way stretch for active swimming without crossing into the territory where excessive elastane slows drying — manufacturers flag 5–15% as the ideal range for preserving quick-dry properties, and this blend stays safely within the performance sweet spot.
- The fabric's non-cling behavior is a direct result of polyester's smooth micro-filament surface and low water absorbency, which prevents the heavy, sagging feeling that cotton or thicker nylon blends exhibit when saturated — instead, water beads up and rolls off, reducing post-swim chill and skin irritation.
Feature comparison with other Saxx swim trunks
- At $49.95 CAD on sale, the trunk is the most price-accessible Saxx swim option, sitting roughly 38% below the $80 CAD standard price of the 2N1 Oh Buoy models while still delivering the micro-mesh BallPark Pouch and 5-inch quick-dry shell.
- The 5-inch inseam matches the standard shorter length across Saxx's swim collection (Oh Buoy offers 5" and 7", Harbormaster is 5"), giving this trunk the same athletic above-knee cut that defines the brand's swim silhouette.
- The trunk integrates a micro-mesh 3D BallPark Pouch directly into the front shell, providing chafe-free support within a lightweight, quick-drying single-piece construction.

Q&A
5 answered- How does the sizing of these swim trunks compare to Saxx's underwear sizing? Do they run true to size?
- Saxx swim trunks generally run true to size compared to their underwear sizing. The elastic waistband with drawcord provides additional adjustability, so if you're between sizes, we recommend going with your usual Saxx size.
- Does the BallPark Pouch provide adequate support for swimming or is it mainly for casual wear?
- Yes, the 3D BallPark Pouch is designed for swimming — it's built into these swim trunks with lightweight, fast-drying stretch fabric and a micro mesh front that prevents skin-against-skin friction, providing both support and comfort in the water.
- Are the pockets mesh or solid? Do they have drainage holes or are they waterproof?
- The product information does not specify whether the pockets are mesh or have drainage holes. However, the fabric is described as lightweight and fast-drying, and in typical swim trunks, pockets are often mesh-lined to allow water to drain, which helps with quick drying and prevents water pooling.
- How does the fabric hold up to prolonged exposure to chlorine and saltwater?
- The polyester shell offers good resistance to chlorine and saltwater, though the spandex content may break down over time with frequent exposure; rinsing with fresh water after use will extend the life of the fabric.
- Is the palm tree pattern printed or woven? Will it fade over time?
- The pattern is printed onto the fabric, not woven. Because it's a printed polyester-spandex blend, some fading over time is possible with repeated sun exposure and chlorine, but proper rinsing and care can help maintain the color.
