Summer is officially here, so that means it's time to start hitting the pool/beach in style. Buffalo Dandy has selected our Top 10 Boardshorts for summer to help you look your best while enjoying some fun in the sun. Don't be afraid to embrace the age of old saying of "Sky's Out, Thighs Out" and try opting for a shorter length than usual. Gone are the days of extra-long shorts that could actually drown you. These shorts are shorter, slimmer and evoke a more retro look which are sure to be the envy of your friends who 1) are jealous that they can't pull them off with your confidence and 2) are jealous of all the ladies heads you'll be turning at the beach for your impeccable taste in swimwear. Let's get started.

The first round is your standard issue board shorts you can find in just about any mall. Still, there are some stellar options here for anyone looking for just a classic looking swim trunk.

 


1. Old Navy $10 | 2. H&M $13 | 3. ASOS $26 | 4. Hollister $40 | 5. J.Crew Factory $30 | 6. Billabong $54

 

Next we step it up a notch with some more high-end, luxury swim trunks. Just because you're not a body builder doesn't mean you can't flex on the beach.
