The Chubbies Lined Classic Swim Trunk
The Chubbies Lined Classic Swim Trunk earns its name the straightforward way: a shorter 5.5" inseam that keeps things out of the way, a built-in mesh liner that eliminates the need for separate board shorts or a swimsuit underneath, and bold Chubbies prints that signal you are at the beach on purpose. This is the trunk that defined the brand, and it remains the standard for guys who want to move freely in and out of the water without changing clothes.
Built-In Liner
The integrated mesh liner is the core feature that separates these from a generic boardshort. It sits against the skin, wicks moisture, and provides coverage and support without adding bulk. You go from the water to the bar to the paddleboard without needing to carry an extra layer or change. The liner is built to stay in place through surf, swimming, and everything in between.
Classic Fit and Construction
The 5.5" inseam hits well above the knee, giving the trunk a clean, athletic silhouette that moves freely whether you are paddling out, playing volleyball, or walking the boardwalk. The elastic waistband with a white adjustable drawstring dials in the fit at the waist without a stiff belt or bulky buckle. Side pockets keep the profile clean while still giving you somewhere to stow a key or card.
The Prints
Every colorway in the Classic lineup is an all-over print rather than a plain or stripe. The patterns run edge to edge across the shell fabric, maintaining the bold Chubbies identity that made the brand a fixture in South Florida beach culture and beyond. The print is part of the construction, not an afterthought applied over a generic base.
Versatility On and Off the Water
The Classic is a legitimate swim trunk first, styled for wear after. The liner and inseam length make it fully functional in open water, a pool, or paddling, while the print and silhouette translate directly to casual wear without looking like you just walked off a longboard. Pair with a rash guard for sun coverage or throw on a tee and go. No second outfit needed.
Why Chubbies
Chubbies built their reputation on a single premise: shorter swim trunks perform and look better than the baggy knee-length styles that dominated the category for decades. The Lined Classic is the direct expression of that premise. It is available in store and online at Island Water Sports, your South Florida source for water-ready apparel and gear.

- Can the Chubbies Lined Classic Swim Trunk be worn in the ocean?

- Is the Chubbies Lined Classic good for paddleboarding or watersports?
