Outplay Boi shorts – Wearing biker shorts or jammers to the beach isn’t very comfortable so we came up with these 12” long brief Boi shorts that fall half way down your thigh. These color blocked basic swim shorts have a 4″ in-seam and can be worn on their own or underneath your everyday clothing, keeping you ready for a swim anytime. They’re flexible and light weight and have the androgynous cut Outplay is known for. The Boi shorts waist band is approximately 1″ in width and sits just below the waist for comfort and style. Fully lined you don’t have to worry about them being see-through or any seams rubbing you the wrong way. Just pure comfort and fun in and out of the water.
They’re available in our basic 5 colors that can be mixed and matched with any of our tops. Switch out the top and you have a completely new look. When picking a size, we recommend you use our size chart for guidance. Our sizes aren’t exactly like other traditional clothing brand sizes as all our products are gender neutral.
Caring for the swim shorts is easy. Just wash in cold water and we recommend you flat dry them. The heat from the dryer debilitates the spandex threads over time which can lead to them losing stretch. Avoiding the dryer is a cool little secret to keep all your swimwear and stretchable sportswear looking its best for a long time.

Bummed out by bikini bottoms and typical “female” boy shorts? These boi shorts will definitely make you happier!
Pros:
FULLY LINED-keeps your privates private even when wet!, Quality materials. Comfortable. Stylish. Will not give you a wedgie, even in big waves! Nice cut. Wearing these boi shorts makes rain forest-clearing depilation a thing of the past! True to size. Excellent customer service.
Cons: The legs will roll up and resemble granny-panties if you are playing in large waves (no real worries though I hear those are back in style). If you have a short torso these will sit a little high. The sizing is true to the chart but I think I could go down a size and I already have them in small. I am not sure about the seam in the crotch. It hasn’t caused any issues yet but I can see where it could. Not quite long enough for cross-training: i.e. I cannot wear these on my road bike without chafing, which is too bad because I am (sort of) training for a triathlon.
Ok, what I am really looking for is a pair of jammers for a female body. If boys can have jammers why can’t tomboys? I have a pair from another company that went out of business and I’m afraid I’ll wear them out. The boi shorts are a good back up but I still really want jammers (hint hint). Sure, there are jammer-length swim shorts for female bodies but I have yet to find any with good reviews or that are fully lined. I doubt they would have the same quality as Outplay garments. I will probably buy another pair of boi shorts to put in my swim rotation but I would 100% definitely buy jammers from Outplay in a heartbeat.

These shorts are exactly what I’ve been looking for–something more substantial than the usual “boyshort” bottoms. These are no fuss, flattering, and topped with a sports bra it’s perfect for swimming laps at the gym. Also super fast shipping!

Sizing is way off. I measured myself several times and was so excited about this! Just way too big everywhere. I just saw that customers are responsible for return shipping plus a $6 restocking fee. I’m pretty bummed.

Originally ordered a medium and exchanged for a small, the small is snugger but not overwhelmingly so. I would highly recommend ordering a size smaller than what your measurements are because these aren’t underwear, you have to take into account friction against water. It’s a very comfortable cut but not too modest; I struggle to find flattering swim shorts since I’m five feet, and most swimwear for men is catered towards those six feet and up, so these are a godsend.

I got the medium (previously bought most things in a 14/L “women’s” size). I am 5’9 and 155 lb.
These fit about the same on me as they did the model. The waistband does sink a little lower in the back, but I have a larger butt and tights. If you don’t want it skin tight, maybe go up a size or opt for board shorts.

Size & fit were just right, thanks to advice from the excellent people at Outplay. Good quality. Fun, flexible, feel-good-in-it look. Thank you!

Very comfortable and long enough that if you’re like me and deal with thigh chafing it has you covered!

Not gender neutral. I got these as a trans man looking for gender neutral swim short that won’t flare open. I ordered a size XS according to the size chart. these looked a lot longer in the photo they are in real life, I couldn’t tell the difference between these and women’s swim shorts. they were not even close to reaching halfway down my thigh. if you’re willing to compromise on length they otherwise fit well and seem to be high quality.
