Katin Boys Habitat Volley Short
The Katin Boys Habitat Volley Short is built for boys who want a boardshort that moves with them, made from 4-way stretch fabric with an abstract design that adds contrast to the everyday Katin boardshort lineup.
Fabric and Build
This short is made from 90% recycled polyester and 10% spandex for 4-way stretch, with a 16 inch outseam. It has an elastic waistband and a custom Katin drawcord with rubber aglets so it stays secured through a day of activity, plus front slash pockets with mesh drainage and a back patch pocket with velcro closure for keeping small items on hand.
- 90% recycled polyester, 10% spandex 4-way stretch
- 16 inch outseam
- Elastic waistband with custom Katin drawcord and rubber aglets
- Front slash pockets with mesh drainage
- Back patch pocket with velcro closure
- Supportive soft mesh liner brief
Who It Is For
This short is made for boys who are in and out of the water all day, whether that is surfing, swimming, or just playing around the pool or beach. The mesh drainage in the front pockets lets water pass through instead of pooling, and the supportive mesh liner brief means it can be worn straight into the water without a separate swimsuit underneath.
Wear and Care
Recycled polyester and spandex blends like this one are built to dry quickly and hold their stretch, so rinsing in fresh water after ocean or pool time and letting it air dry helps protect the elastic waistband and drawcord over repeated wear. Because the fabric has stretch built in, the fit stays comfortable through active movement rather than restricting it.
About Katin
Katin traces back to 1954, when Nancy and Walter Katin opened a small boat cover business in Surfside, California, just north of Huntington Beach. Katin holds the title of California's first brand to make surf trunks, and this boardshort carries that heritage into a kids' fit.
