A Boardshort Built Around Surfing's Three Key Criteria
Searches for the Rip Curl Mirage 3-2-One Ultimate boardshorts and Mirage ultimate stretch boardshorts point to a core following built around three things, comfort, strength, and style. Rip Curl designed the Mirage 3/2/One Ultimate around surfing's own three key criteria, speed, power, and flow, using three complementary panels that work together to deliver all three at once.
What the Three Panels Are Built From
- Four way stretch Mirage Pro Fabric
- Durable Stretch Cordura 165G
- Smooth neoprene side panels
- DWR water repellent treatment
- 19 inch outseam with a mid fit
- Engineered sublimation print for a clean finish
- Hidden high hip zip pocket
- High density heat transfer logos
- Hydrophobic quick dry construction
Who These Boardshorts Are Built For
These are built for a surfer who wants a boardshort tough enough to survive regular sessions off a board or through a paddle out, but stretchy enough not to restrict a pop up or a duck dive. The mid fit and 19 inch outseam sit in a practical middle ground for someone who wants surf performance without a boardshort that feels overly long or overly short.
Wearing and Caring for the Mirage Ultimate
The hidden high hip zip pocket is worth using for a key or a card on a beach walk, since it stays out of the way while paddling. Thanks to the DWR water repellent treatment and hydrophobic quick dry construction, these boardshorts shed water fast and dry quicker after a session than a standard cotton blend short, though rinsing them in fresh water after saltwater use will help both the DWR coating and the neoprene side panels hold up longer between washes.
Backed by Rip Curl's Surf Heritage
Rip Curl continues to deliver footwear, apparel, outerwear, bags, and accessories for men, women, and kids, whether celebrating at events around the world or on dawn patrol waiting for the next wave. The brand describes its mission as bringing comfort while being regarded as the ultimate surfing company, which is exactly the philosophy behind combining stretch fabric, tough Cordura, and neoprene into one boardshort.
