Milaloko Men's Swimming Shorts with Compression Liner – Quick-Dry Boardshorts

What these are and who they’re for

Milaloko’s men’s swimming shorts are designed as quick-dry boardshorts with a built-in compression liner. They’re aimed at swimmers, surfers and casual beachgoers who want a single pair that stays comfortable during activities and dries promptly afterwards.

How the compression liner helps

The 2-in-1 construction places a soft, skin-friendly compression lining inside the outer short. On the surface this reduces chafing and eliminates the need for extra underwear, which can feel fiddly in the water. On the practical side, a comfortable liner can help you feel less bulky during transitions from water to land.

Fit and adjustments

An elastic waistband combined with an adjustable drawstring means you can tailor the tension to your waist. This helps prevent the shorts from slipping down while you move—handy for wave catching or a jog along the shore.

Fabric and drying performance

The fabric mix is 95% polyester and 5% elastane, chosen for light weight, durability and breathability. The quick-drying nature is useful if you move between water and sun, so you’re not left sitting in damp shorts after a swim.

Pockets and storage

Practical storage is covered with two front mesh pockets, a built-in pocket on the lining, and a back pocket with a drain hole. If you’re carrying cards or keys, there’s a sensible place to stash them while you’re in or around the water.

Use cases and limitations

These shorts cover a wide range of water activities—from swimming and surfing to sailing and kayaking—and even beach volleyball or family days out. They’ll also function well for gym-style cardio sessions if you don’t mind the boardshort silhouette. It’s worth noting that the value here rests in the combination of liner comfort, quick-dry tech and a practical pocket setup. If you prioritise a separate mesh lining or a shorter swim short length, you might find yourself comparing other options.

What to check before buying

Consider your waist size to get the right snugness with the drawstring. Ensure the pockets’ openings and drain hole meet your needs for carrying essentials while in the water. If you’re training intensely or need more supportive compression, assess how the lining feels during longer sessions.
