In over 40 years of talking to random people on British beaches about going into the water fully clothed, I don't think I have ever, ever heard anybody say "swim in clothes". And "swim with clothes", on its own, is also very rare. As others have said, there would nearly always be "on" at the end, but also nearly always "my", "your" or "their" before "clothes". Perhaps its the materialistic nature of those countries where English is the first language, but where something is a personal possession we nearly always but a possessive pronoun in front of it [so I would say "I drive my car", not "I drive the car" - if I use "the", it probably means it's a rental car]. So "swim with my clothes on" would be the most common form; "swim in my clothes" maybe occasionally.
But even that is not the end of it, because hardly anybody would say "I'm going to swim with my clothes on", it nearly always has "go for a" in front of "swim" (don't ask me why!), so I would say that "go for a swim with my clothes on" is by far the most common way I have heard people describe what you are referring to, Wetlooker2.
But as RoscoeBC has said, it really doesn't matter; we know what you mean, and that's all that is important. |
