Right, if you're after some proper swim shorts that actually look decent, these Lacoste ones are spot on. They're that perfect deep navy, but with a bit of a twist – a contrast beige waistband and stripes on the hem. Gives them a classic feel without being boring, if you know what I mean. They're a mid-length cut, which is pretty much ideal; not too short that you feel exposed, not too long that they look like board shorts. Plus, the elasticated waist with a drawstring means they’ll actually fit properly and stay put, whether you’re having a proper swim or just lounging by the pool. Made from polyester, so they're practical too. Honestly, a solid pick for any summer holiday.
