Swim 365 Women's Plus Size Contrast-Trim Long Boardshort

I ordered the board shorts to wear to a water park. I wanted the freedom to ride the slides & play around without worrying about showing too much. I'm also very self conscious about my jelly thighs. These worked out perfectly! I'm5'9" and they came to my knee. The back waist is elasticated for freedom of movement. The front lies nice & flat under a tankini top. There's no liner, as clearly stated in the description so you could wear swim bottom or even underpants. I am pear shaped with large thighs and ordered a size larger at the suggestion of previous reviewers. They fit nice and roomy when dry and i thought they would work out perfectly. However when wet, with the water weighting them and water current pulling at them I realized that I should have ordered the size that I measured for from the size chart. They twisted around my waist on the waterslides and i had to keep pulling them up and untwisting them. My fault. other than that they were perfect. So ladies, order according to your measurements in the size chart! Also if you are lucky enough to have slender legs these will be huge on your legs. They are definitely made for us bottom heavy girls.
