Size & inseam guide

Waist, chest and head measurements, and what 5, 7 and 9 inches of inseam actually look like.

Last updated: 28 September 2026

Inseam

The inseam is the seam on the inside of the leg, from the crotch to the hem. Every swim short comes in three: the shorter the inseam, the more thigh you show. Our photos show the 7-inch.

5″
7″
9″
Inseam Length Where it sits (average height)
5″ 12.7 cm Well above the knee
7″ 17.8 cm Mid-thigh
9″ 22.9 cm Just above the knee

How to measure

  • Waist: measure around your natural waist, where you wear your shorts, keeping the tape level and relaxed.
  • Chest: measure around the fullest part of your chest, under your arms.
  • Head: measure around your head just above the ears and eyebrows.
  • Inseam of shorts you already own: lay them flat and measure the inside leg seam from the crotch to the hem.
