Built for the Water, Made for Movement
The Roxy No Bad Waves Boardshorts deliver the freedom you need from the lineup to the sand. The shell is cut from Recycler 4-way stretch poplin, a knit-blend polyester fabric that moves with you in every direction while drying fast after a dip. Roxy constructed these with a dolphin short shape, which opens up the leg and gives you a full, unrestricted range of motion whether you are paddling out, walking the nose, or just hanging on the beach.
Waistband and Fit
The fixed waist combines a flat knit belt with a hidden large elastic band underneath, so the shorts sit securely without digging in or shifting. A drawcord threads through the front for an adjustable, locked-in fit you can cinch tighter before a session or loosen for all-day wear. The boardshort fit sits easy through the hip and thigh, and the 5-inch inseam keeps things relaxed without excess fabric in the way. A Roxy logo patch on the left leg is the only branding detail on an otherwise clean design.
Sustainable Construction
The fabric is 100% recycled polyester, made through Roxy's Recycler program that turns post-consumer materials into performance surf apparel. Choosing recycled polyester cuts down on virgin plastic use without compromising the stretch, durability, or quick-dry performance the fabric needs to hold up in saltwater and sun.
About Roxy
Roxy launched as the first dedicated female surf brand to grow out of surf culture, and the brand has stayed committed to that identity ever since. Its global surf and snowboard teams include some of the highest-ranked athletes in the world, and the product line reflects what those athletes actually need in the water. The No Bad Waves Boardshorts are a direct expression of that: functional construction, eco-conscious materials, and a fit shaped around how women actually move in the surf.
