Q&A
Frequently asked questions
How does the mid rise waist suit shorter women?
The waistband is designed to sit comfortably just above the belly button on petite frames. This proportion encourages a smooth tummy area without sitting too high on your ribs.
Does the chlorine resistant fabric feel restrictive?
Not at all. The material offers full stretch and breathability while remaining durable. This treatment helps to make your swimwear last longer even with regular use in public pools.
Do I need to wear anything under these shorts?
These knee length shorts feature an integrated inner brief for complete modesty and support. You do not need to wear an additional swimsuit underneath.

Well made as with all your swimwear and great price. The only problem I have, which is significant, is the shorts are not made for big bums. More for apple figures rather than pears. So they are too short at the waist and therefore uncomfortable. The previous loose shorts I bought were too big( my fault) but again the undies part were small.
OceanRoad Swimwear –
Thank you so much for your feedback, and I’m really glad to hear you found the quality and price good.
From what you’ve described, it sounds like you may have found a more comfortable fit in our higher-waist swim shorts, as they provide extra rise and coverage through the back, which often works better for pear-shaped figures and fuller hips. You can view that style here:
