Rip Curl Mirage Sandbar Elastic Waist Short
The Mirage Sandbar is an elastic waist short built from Rip Curl's Mirage fabric, made for anyone who wants a boardshort style short with a comfortable, no fuss waistband instead of a traditional fly closure.
Fabric and Finish
- Recycled Polyester Mirage Fabric
- 4 way stretch
- DWR water repellent treatment
- Responsibly sourced
The recycled polyester Mirage fabric gives the short its stretch and structure, with 4 way stretch letting it move with you rather than restricting motion. The DWR treatment helps water bead and roll off rather than soaking in, and the responsibly sourced construction means the fabric was produced with sustainability in mind.
Who Wears an Elastic Waist Short
An elastic waist short like the Sandbar suits anyone who wants boardshort performance with the comfort of a pull on waistband, whether that is for paddling out, spending a day on the boat, or just moving between the beach and everyday errands without changing. The 4 way stretch fabric makes it a practical choice for an active day on South Florida water.
Caring for a Stretch Performance Short
Rinsing in fresh water after salt water exposure helps protect both the stretch fabric and the DWR finish over time, and a cold wash with air drying is generally the safer routine for keeping a water repellent treatment performing as long as possible. High heat drying tends to break down DWR coatings faster than air drying does.
Rip Curl's Approach to Materials
Rip Curl continues to deliver quality goods across footwear, apparel, outerwear, bags, and accessories for men, women, and kids, and the responsibly sourced recycled polyester in the Sandbar reflects the brand's move toward more sustainable fabric choices in its boardshort and short lineup.
