Pickup currently unavailable at BSS
Built for the Beach, Made to Last
The Billabong High Tides Denim Short is a warm-weather essential from Billabong's denim collection. Constructed from 100% cotton rigid denim, it delivers the structure and wear-in feel of real denim in a shorts cut designed for life near the water. The raw frayed hem gives it an effortless, lived-in edge that pairs with anything from a rash guard to a beach coverup.
High Rise Fit and Classic Construction
The high rise waist sits above the hip for a flattering, elongating silhouette without sacrificing comfort. A zip fly and single button closure keep the fit clean and secure, while the classic five-pocket design keeps the look timeless and functional. Contrast stitching throughout adds durability and that unmistakable vintage denim character.
Billabong Craftsmanship
Born from surf culture in 1973, Billabong has spent over five decades refining what it means to dress for the beach. The High Tides Short carries that heritage: a small Billabong flag label marks the denim as part of a lineage built around real surf lifestyle, not just the aesthetic. Cotton rigid denim means it holds its shape session after session and softens naturally over time with wear.
How to Care for Your Denim Shorts
Machine wash cold with like colors. Turn inside out before washing to preserve the wash and reduce friction on the outer surface. Tumble dry low or hang dry to maintain the shape of the denim. Do not bleach. Iron on low if needed, avoiding any printed or embroidered elements.

- It is made from 100% cotton rigid denim, which gives the short its structure, durability, and classic wear-in feel.
