keylimepie Posted April 19, 2009 #1 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Are board shorts made out of supplex particularly sheer? Just wondering how much of the swimsuit underneath shows through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'm on holiday Posted April 19, 2009 #2 Share Posted April 19, 2009 The board shorts we have are not sheer. Not certain if they are supplex, but they seem to be the standard board shorts material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TropicOne Posted April 20, 2009 #3 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Just get dark coloured ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houndmom Posted April 20, 2009 #4 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Mine are black. Nothing shows through. I wouldn't get a light color, because of that very concern. They might become see-thru when wet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare CruisinCrow Posted April 20, 2009 #5 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I've got a white pair and I've never noticed them getting see-through. But, if you have a bathing suit underneath, why does it matter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warm Breezes Posted April 20, 2009 #6 Share Posted April 20, 2009 ok - What are Board Shorts??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houndmom Posted April 20, 2009 #7 Share Posted April 20, 2009 These are board shorts. I like them because they keep the backs of my legs from getting sunburned while snorkeling. Others like them as a cover-up. I like them better than regular shorts over bathing suits because they dry really fast. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keylimepie Posted April 20, 2009 Author #8 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I've got a white pair and I've never noticed them getting see-through. But, if you have a bathing suit underneath, why does it matter? I have black swimsuits but found a pair of white board shorts I liked because I could throw any color top or tee on with them. I've never had them before and am not familiar with the material. However, I do not want to be walking around in them and have same effect as black underwear under white shorts. I'm just going to look for a darker pair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
