Boys swim suits?

[HHCs Mom]

Where should I be looking for a swim suit for DS? The shark ones at Gymboree are so-so and I've looked at TCP, LLB, Land's End (who doesn't have any online yet), Gap, J&J, etc. Where else? I saw some I liked at the Polo website, but I'd rather not pay $30+ for swim trunks for a baby, especially since I'd like to get him more than one suit.

Any recs would be appreciated! :)
Thank!

I go the penguin ones from J&J. Hanna had some plain ones last year, but they are not out yet this year.

I usually get ours at Gymboree. They hold up really well (unlike the ones I've had from TCP, WalMart, Target, and others). The ones from LE are usually cute but pretty plain and the same for Hanna.

Flap Happy makes super cute boys' swim trunks. I got DS several from eBay last year. CWD (cwdkids.com) also carries Flap Happy and some other brands, but they tend to be a little pricier.

I was recently on the hunt for an inexpensive suit for Charlie's swim class. Here's what I came across.

Lands End has this on their overstocks page. It comes in different colors. [link:www.landsend.com/cd/ov/prod/1,1467,2_17273_52599_54143_109367_87814_,00.html?s id=0033103126395168041&CM_MERCH=PAGE_54129|Lands End Suit]

Kidsurplus.com has some suits, including this Little Me suit for $9.99.

I ended up getting this OshKosh suit for his class, only b/c it was cheap and I didn't have to pay for shipping. I got it for $11.99 at Buy Buy Baby.

If I didn't find the OshKosh suit, I would have gone w/one of the Lands End suits. I probably will still order one in a larger size for the summer. We don't need anything fancy!

HTH!

I bought my son a cute swim set by Le Top. It has a terry top and stretchy shorts with a pelican applique. They were from last summer's line so I got a bargain on them from Chocolate Soup.
