Quiksilver Surfsilk Street Trunk
Pickup currently unavailable at BSS
Built for the Water, Worn on the Street
The Quiksilver Surfsilk Street Trunk is the everyday boardshort that handles both sides of a surf day without compromise. Quiksilver's Remade SurfSilk fabric is the defining feature: engineered to be tough on the outside for ocean use while remaining ultra-soft against the skin, with a hand feel closer to silk than standard synthetic weaves. The 88% Recycled Polyester / 12% Elastane construction delivers stretch and durability while keeping waste out of landfills through recycled yarn technology.
SurfSilk Fabric Technology
SurfSilk is Quiksilver's proprietary textile engineered specifically for boardshort performance. The outer face resists abrasion from wax, board rails, and sand. The inner face is smooth and gentle, eliminating the rash and irritation that heavier fabrics can cause on long sessions. The elastane content gives the fabric four-way stretch so the short moves with you through paddle-outs, pop-ups, and recovery without binding at the hip or thigh.
The fabric is made from recycled yarn, reducing the virgin polyester footprint of each pair. This is part of Quiksilver's broader materials commitment, reflected in the Remade branding on the tag.
Construction and Fit Details
The Street Trunk is cut with a straight-leg fit and an 18" outseam, landing just above the knee for a modern length that works in and out of the water. The waistband is fixed rather than folded, keeping a clean profile whether you are paddling or walking the boardwalk.
- Closure: Drawcord with performance fly for a secure, adjustable fit
- Waist: Fixed waist construction
- Pockets: Hook-and-loop tape closure back pocket with flap keeps essentials secure in the surf
- Key holder: Key bungee cord inside pocket so your car key stays put
- Branding: Iconic Quiksilver mountain and wave logo woven patch at the hem
Who These Are For
The Street Trunk sits in Quiksilver's Everyday Collection, meaning it is designed for the surfer who wants one boardshort that transitions from the lineup to a post-session lunch without a change of clothes. The straight-leg silhouette reads cleaner than wider competition cuts, and the SurfSilk hand feel means you can wear them all day without discomfort. If you surf South Florida waters regularly or need a reliable men's boardshort that holds up through a season of use, this is a well-engineered choice at its price point.

Frequently Asked Questions

- SurfSilk is Quiksilver's proprietary performance fabric engineered to be tough and abrasion-resistant on the outside while staying ultra-soft against the skin on the inside.

- Are Quiksilver Surfsilk boardshorts made from recycled materials?
- Yes. The Surfsilk Street Trunk is constructed from 88% Recycled Polyester and 12% Elastane using recycled yarn technology, reducing the virgin polyester footprint of each pair.

- How does the Quiksilver Street Trunk fit compared to standard boardshorts?
