Trunks (clothing) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Trunks (clothing)
Trunks are brief shorts, loose-fitting or tight, worn for sports, especially boxing, swimming, and track.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Trunks )〕 When worn as swimsuit, trunks are often referred to as ''swimming trunks'' or ''bathing trunks'' (or with the more general term ''bathing suit'' or a synonym) and are normally shorter than board shorts, which extend to the knees. Trunks are the most popular type of male swimsuit in North America. They vary in style and design, though most are made of nylon with a mesh lining for quick drying. ==Other usage== In British English, the term ''trunks'' is used as in American English as described above, but it can also refer to men's underpants with legs that reach mid thigh, alternatively called boxer briefs.〔 In American English, the term is sometimes used to refer to trunk hose, defined by the ''Collins American English Dictionary'' as "full, baggy breeches reaching about halfway down the thigh, worn in the 16th and 17th cent."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Trunks )〕
