Performance Fabric
The shell is 90% recycled polyester and 10% spandex, a blend chosen for stretch, fast dry, and durability through extended sessions. The recycled polyester content reduces virgin plastic use without giving up the boardshort performance that competitive surfing demands.
The Andy Irons Foundation
A portion of every A.I. Rising Sun Pro sale goes directly to the Andy Irons Foundation, which supports mental health awareness and treatment access for surfers and the broader surf community. Wearing these shorts carries the mission forward.
