Boardshorts designed for beginner surfing or any other water sport. Swimwear designed for sessions lasting up to 1 hour.
Reduced chafing 100
This is one of the most important criteria when choosing swim shorts. It is not uncommon for a swimsuit or shorts to chafe and irritate the skin. Our shorts are designed to minimise chafing while you are in the water. Standard 100 boardshorts have integrated briefs made from BOSSIS, an elastic mesh for an even better fit and reduced chafing.
Freedom of movement 100 degrees
In surfing, bodyboarding and bodysurfing, the legs work hard, so boardshorts should not restrict either bending/stretching or kicking. A two-way (2 horizontal directions) or four-way (4 horizontal and vertical directions) stretch component contributes to this freedom of movement. A short cut (under 17 inches) also allows for improved movement and stability of the lower body.
How to choose shorts by length?
Shorter shorts (between 14” and 17”) give you freedom of movement and allow you to do a wide range of water sports, including surfing (for occasional sessions less than 1 hour). Longer cuts (between 17” and 20”) reduce irritation from the board or wax on the thighs and top of the knees while paddling. Therefore, these cuts are more suitable for regular or even intensive surfing.
How to choose shorts by waistband
ELASTIC WAISTBAND
Helps the shorts adapt to different body shapes. SEMI-ELASTIC WAISTBAND
Provides a secure fit and adaptability for everyone. FLAT WAISTBAND
Ensures the shorts stay in place in the waves during duck dives and wipeouts. ANATOMICALLY DESIGNED WAISTBAND
Combines the benefits of the elastic waistband (adaptability to different body shapes) and the flat waistband (stability in waves)
How to choose your shorts

RANGE 500/900: Regular surfing. Different long cuts, protection from chafing. Flat waistband: a more secure fit in waves during duck dives and wipeouts. Elastic fabric for freedom of movement.
Quick-drying 100 range
It's quite unpleasant to feel sand sticking to your shorts because they are still wet with water, or even worse, to feel the fabric of the shorts sticking to your skin. To avoid this and for comfort with wet swimwear, choose shorts with synthetic fabric like this. Water will drain faster and the swimwear will dry quickly, avoiding chafing.
How to choose the size of your shorts?
Size guide in the product tab. The 100 line shorts are in sizes S to XXL. The 500 and 900 ranges are available in EU sizes 38, 40, 42, 44, 46 and 48. Your body shape may affect size selection. We always recommend trying on swimwear before buying. Tie the shorts and gradually pull them down. If they pull down easily, they are too big and you may have surprises once you get into the waves.
What are low-cut shorts?
Boardshorts are a term used to define this type of swimwear used in the world of surfing and water sports. Practical and comfortable, they are suitable for both men and women. This type of swimwear was created in the 1950s for surfing. In recent years, they have become a popular style of swim shorts. The name "boardshorts" comes from their use in water sports using a board, such as surfing.
Wave resistance in the 100 range
When surfing, after a duck dive or wipeout, it's hard to adjust boardshorts that have fallen while paddling. This is why choosing the right waistband for surf swimwear is essential. Choose an elastic or semi-elastic waistband with a drawstring that goes all the way around the waist. The 100 15” shorts have an elastic waistband with a drawstring to keep them in place when you fall into the waves.
