Will my phone fit?
The pocket is 201 × 140mm inside. It takes phones up to iPhone 15 Pro Max, Galaxy S24 Ultra and Pixel 8 Pro in a slim case. Folding phones don’t fit open.
What size should I get?
Sizing varies between brands, so check the size chart on each product page. Between sizes? Go up, as long as the waist won’t be too wide, so the pocket’s magnetic seal doesn’t dig in.
Does the pocket really stay dry?
Yes. Every pocket is IPX8-certified and tested to 30m, and has a 3-year waterproof warranty.
Can I mix and match?
Yes. Any 2 items save 5%, 3 save 10%, 4 or more save 20%, applied at checkout. Bundles are excluded.
What if I don’t like them?
Send them back within 60 days, free.
About this range
Men’s swim shorts with a hidden waterproof pocket, so your phone, car key and cards come into the water with you instead of waiting on the towel. Every pair has a pocket that seals itself with magnets and is IPX8-certified and tested to 30 metres. From the outside they look like normal swim shorts: nothing for anyone to spot or snatch.
What makes the best swim shorts for the beach and travel?
For most people it comes down to three things: comfort, looks, and somewhere safe for your valuables. That last one is what ordinary board shorts get wrong. Zip pockets fill with water and sand, and neck pouches can leak, swing about and tell everyone where your phone is. Our shorts fix that:
- Waterproof to 30m. The pocket is IPX8-certified and tested at depth, not just splash-proof. See how we test the pocket.
- Seals itself. Magnets close the opening the moment you let go, so there’s no zip or roll-top to forget.
- Fits big phones. The pocket is 201 × 140mm inside with a 158mm opening. Check yours with our phone fit guide.
- Hidden in plain sight. The pocket sits inside the shorts, so you can swim, snorkel or stroll the markets without a bag.
- Backed for years. Every pocket has a 3-year waterproof warranty, and returns are free within 60 days.
Which brand of waterproof pocket swim shorts should I choose?
We stock the waterproof pocket swimwear we trust, all with the same promise to keep your valuables dry:
- RAKE: clean, classic colours made for swimming and travel. AquaStash holds the exclusive global licence.
- Randy Cow: bold prints, with matching kids’ sizes for father-and-son beach days.
- Dry Pocket Apparel: rugged swim shorts with a magnetic auto-sealing pocket, made for fishing, boating and the outdoors.
Can you really swim with your phone in your shorts?
Yes. That’s exactly what they’re for. Put your phone in, let the magnets close the pocket, and swim, surf, snorkel or dive to 30 metres. The technology behind our seals was even selected for a NASA project. Want to see it for yourself? Read how we test the pocket.
