Women's Drainmaker™ Short 5 5 2 2
Great fit and appearance. Will wear the tankini for swimming, snorkeling and scuba. Love the marine with the orange swirls. Fabric of good quality. Size true to expectations; always move up a size when wearing in water, easier movement. Pleased with length of board shorts. May 16, 2013
Love the material. I will use these for paddle boarding. I have four other pair of board shorts I have collected over the years and the material for this pair seem to be perfect - not stiff, not too thin, just enough stretch. I do think they run a tad small but as I haven't yet had them in the water that might be a good thing. I would order larger size if you are in between sizes. PLEA TO COLUMBIA: Please make this same short in the longer length. Those of us without perfectly smooth thighs feel happier when they are covered up a bit. Not sure about the pocket in the back. I have a feeling not the best spot to hold my truck key when I'm out paddling, a side or front pocket might be a better choice. Neither of these issues make me like these any less - just tweaking them would make them more functional for me personally. April 30, 2013
