Most swim trunks have open pockets that empty themselves in the first wave. Tucann trunks have two front pockets, both with zips, and no back pocket. 214 reviews mention the pockets or zips; the things people keep in them are room keys, cards, cash and phones on the walk to the pool. An iPhone 17 Pro Max fits. The pockets are not waterproof, so the phone comes out before you swim.

I'm in between large and xl so these are a little snug but I love them. They are so comfortable to wear. The zipper pockets are great. Love the vibrant color and pattern

Hi, I LOVE the trunks but they are too big for me despite having looked up the size chart online. When I have something in my pocket I lose them. But great trunks overall

Love these trunks. The zipper pockets are great for keeping the phone safe while on the beach and they stretch so sitting down is no problem

The other side

Every one to three star review in this group, unedited.

Fit and look is very good. Found loose thread in the right pocket which will be a problem in time no doubt. Company states fast drying. The outer part of the trunks dries quickly. The inner stays wet a very long time and the support is marginally acceptable. Better off with mesh that the company actually criticizes. Maybe I’d pay $50 for this bathing suit, but the almost $100 that I paid is not worth it.

I admit it was my fault for not checking the zipper pockets when I received them but at this price I expect better quality control. The first time I wore while on vacation, I realized one pocket would not open at all! At a premium price, I would expect better Tucann.
Robert D. · Verified purchase · Royal Blue 5"
For the price I expected better quality. The placement and size of the pockets are terrible and they are sized too small. Will not be buying another pair!

Frequently asked questions

Do the zips rust?
The hardware is metal and reviews from repeat buyers over multiple seasons do not report rusting or seizing. Rinse in fresh water after salt.
Is there a back pocket?
No. Two front zip pockets only. Nothing to sit on and nothing to lose.
Do the pockets hold a phone?
Yes, a large one. It will get wet if you swim, so the pocket is for the walk, the bar and the lounger, not the water.
