Island-Inspired Print, Built for the Beach
The Katin Moco Volley Short brings a bold tropical floral print to a versatile everyday short. The pattern draws from classic island imagery, rendered in a tone-on-tone style that reads well from the water to the boardwalk. It is the kind of print Katin has built its reputation on since opening its doors on the California coast in 1954.
Repreve Tri-Blend Fabric
The Moco is cut from a tri-blend that combines Repreve recycled polyester, standard polyester, and cotton, finished with a shot of elastane for give in every direction. Repreve is made from recycled plastic bottles, so the fabric performs while putting less strain on resources. The blend delivers a lived-in softness that cotton alone cannot match while holding its shape wash after wash. The 8% elastane content means the waistband and leg panels move with you whether you are paddling out or running errands.
Construction and Features
Katin put the details in the right places on the Moco. A 17-inch outseam keeps coverage without dragging, hitting the ideal volley length for both water and street. The elastic waistband is fitted with an external drawcord so you can dial the fit precisely. Two front slash pockets sit flush against the leg, a back patch pocket handles your essentials on dry land, and a hidden interior stash pocket keeps a key or card secure in the water. Inside, clean-finished seams prevent chafing and a full mesh brief lining means you can skip the layer underneath.
About Katin
In 1954, Nancy and Walter Katin opened Kanvas by Katin in Surfside, California, just north of Huntington Beach, as a boat cover shop. Surfers quickly discovered that Katin canvas made exceptional trunks, and the brand became California's first to produce surf trunks commercially. More than seventy years later, Katin still builds from that original commitment to quality construction and durable materials. The Moco Volley is a direct line to that history: serious enough to surf in, relaxed enough for everything else.
