Board Shorts vs Trunks

So I am torn here. I want to get longer length shorts for swimming so I need to get board shorts, but they are toooooo long. Regular trunks are too short to me. I want them to hit on or right above the knee. I am not sure what to do about this. Do they make board shorts for shorter guys?

Consider looking at a place like above that offers 4 different lengths.

also 5'5". I have (3) pair of Hurley Board Shorts. They land just above the knee if you pick the correct waist.

I was going to suggest this brand as well. I need them to be to the knee but ot past it. I can't stand short trunks.

Board shorts can be super long or short. You just have to check the inseam. Try them on in store if you can if not, check the inseam on anything before you buy it online.

They have tons of different lengths. I got some from Walmart, I think the brand is OP. They hit me just above the knee. I go them in a medium. They were listed as board shorts as well.
