If We Were Anywhere Near L.A. Right Now...
We'd head straight for Birdwell Britches and get our own custom-made board shorts.
Board shorts?
Yes, board shorts. Not the cargo pants-spin offs you see at Old Navy, but genuine Angeleno surfer gear.
Generally much more flattering than a Speedo, or its spandex cousin, boxer-brief-style trunks.
For as little as $39, you get to pick the color, the print, pocket, and stitching options. Thrillist LA (thanks for the tip!) believes the trunks can last up to a quarter century. Since 1961, this family run operation ("only family answers the phone") has been suiting up sexy surfers under the delightful slogan "quality is our gimmick."

Boardshorts are totally ridiculous if you really swim..who wants to swim in a skirt...and they leave absurd tanlines....I live in Miami Beach and boardshorts are worn to the beach and often a coverup for a brief or squarecut for sunning.
For sportswear without a shirt, a boardshort play's up a guys chest and abs, making him look more naked...
