Get beach-ready: Amazon's No. 1 bestselling swim trunks are down to $16

Summer hasn't even started yet, but your search for the best swim trunks are over. The Kanu Surf Men's Barracuda Swim Trunks are a fan favorite, and some styles and sizes are on sale for as low as $16, that's almost 35% off. They're truly a must-have for all upcoming beach trips, pool parties and vacations. More than 58,000 reviewers have praised these as being “comfortable,” “soft” and quite simply the “best pair of swim trunks” ever.

An elastic waistband with a drawstring and side cargo pockets are just two of the features we love about this swim gear.

The swim trunks are designed with quick dry technology — that means they’ll dry extra fast after you get out of the water. Plus, the fabric is equipped with UPF 50+ which helps block damaging ultraviolet rays. Overall, they’re soft and extra stretchy for a more comfortable fit. While the shorts come in S to 5X to accommodate a wide variety of shapes and sizes (and 40+ different colors), keep in mind that not all styles are on sale.

“Possibly the best pair of swim trunks I’ve ever had,” said a happy customer. “I have a large waist (about 50 inches) and bought the 4x size trunks. They fit beautifully. The drawstring let me tighten to a comfortable, secure fit. I can move around (as one will do while swimming) without tightness or worry about ripping a stitch. The pockets are nice, and the two cargo pockets even better.”

“So many swim trunks in the department stores are of poor quality,” wrote one satisfied customer. “These are great. I first bought these shorts a few years ago in a beach store while vacationing. I was excited to find them online after not being able to find decent swim trunks in the department stores. They are true to size and not short which seems to be the trend recently. Don't look at another pair of shorts. You should buy these.”

Added a five-star reviewer: “These shorts are absolutely perfect; they have a soft lining for prevention of the ‘crown jewels’ from chafing and they are nice and comfortable when wearing, wet or dry."

A range of prints includes stripes, florals, tie-dyes, tropicals and geometrics.
