ROARK BOATMAN 2.0 17" SAFFRON
Pickup currently unavailable at BSS
Built on the Boatman Series
The Roark Boatman 2.0 17 Inch is an update to Roark's Boatman Series of boardshorts, built with a super durable but ultra light 4-way stretch Cordura fabric that has been tested in some of the world's heaviest reef breaks.
What Makes the Boatman 2.0 Different
This pair is made from a full stretch Cordura fabric, a composition of 88 percent nylon and 12 percent elastane, described by the brand as ultralight and super soft while still holding up to abrasive surf conditions. It has a 17 inch outseam, an updated drawstring, and a vertical YKK zipper pocket for secure storage. Roark backs every pair with its Lifetime Guarantee.
Who These Boardshorts Are For
These are built for the surfer or boater who is hard on gear, someone paddling into reef breaks or spending long days in and out of the water where a standard boardshort tears or fades fast. The stretch Cordura construction is meant to handle that abuse without giving up mobility, making it a fit for anyone who wants performance boardshorts rather than a casual swim trunk.
Fit and Everyday Use
The updated drawstring lets you dial in a secure waist for paddling and duck dives, and the vertical YKK zipper pocket is a practical spot to secure a key or card while you are in the water. Use the size selector on this page to choose your size, since the stretch Cordura fabric is designed to move with you rather than restrict you.
Backed by Roark and a Lifetime Guarantee
Roark builds its collection around a spirit of adventure and travel, and the Boatman 2.0 carries the brand's Lifetime Guarantee, a sign of how much confidence Roark puts in the stretch Cordura build holding up over years of use.
