Now that summer is here, the beach has become a favourite destination for most people. However, it seems that men are actually clueless on what to wear. Most men don’t feel it is actually necessary to shop for a swimsuit. Although there are many choices, it is important to know how to wear swimwear according to your body type. Here are some few tips on what not to wear at the beach:

This will save you a lot of embarrassment and everything popping out. In addition to that, this might portray you as a pervert and someone who does not know the size of their pants. It might also appear that you stole somebody else’s swimwear.

2. Avoid wearing very tight fitting swim wears
Very tight fitting swim wears will only make things worse for you as not only is it uncomfortable but it also shows a disorganized person who takes less effort on how they dress.

Beach time is meant to be fun and less worry. Having a t-shirt or a shirt at the beach is less fun.
