Quiksilver Highline Straight Leg Boardshort
Pickup currently unavailable at BSS
A performance boardshort built by surfers, for surfing
Anyone comparing Quiksilver Highline boardshorts is looking for a short designed around actual surfing, not just a beach look, and that is the whole point of the Highline Straight Leg. Not all boardshorts are made equal, and this one is designed by surfers, for surfing.
Fabric and construction
- Highlite 4-way stretch fabric, lighter, dryer, and more flexible
- Quick-drying with a PFC free hydrophobic coating for water repellency
- 60% recycled polyester, 27% polyester, 13% elastane, with recycled yarn
- Performance fly and new fly construction with round drawcord tabs
- Straight leg fit with a fixed waist and drawcord closure
The 4-way stretch fabric is what lets this short move through a full pop-up and turn without restricting the legs, while the PFC free hydrophobic coating sheds water so it stays lighter and dries faster between sets.
Fit and length
It is cut with a 19 inch outseam, a mid length straight leg fit, built to sit right for paddling and duck diving without excess fabric dragging in the water.
Storage and closures
A patch pocket with a two piece hook and loop tape closure and a key bungee cord inside pocket keep small items secure through a session, while the fixed waist and drawcord closure with round drawcord tabs keep the short in place without needing constant adjustment.
Who it is for
Built for surfers who want a boardshort that performs in the water and holds up to daily South Florida sun and salt, not just a casual beach short. The quick-drying, water repellent fabric also makes it a practical choice for the boat.
