The retro stripe style is cool. The stretchy material doesnt hinder movement. The length and leg opening are great. 5 star board shorts

I absolutely love them! I’ve been on my Magnum vibes lately, so I’ve been searching for shorter, slim fitting board shorts for a while. The style, the fit are perfect! I literally just got them today, but hands down they are already my favorite board shorts. I live on the east coast of Florida, and have drawers full of board shorts, but none even come close. I am super happy I found you guys! Awesome product!

Felt obligated to write a review. I hadn’t heard of Avalon before but found them online searching for short fitting swim trunks. Price point was good so I gave them a chance. I’m very impressed with the quality of these swim trunks. Love the material and they fit me really well. 5 stars!
