Pickup currently unavailable at BSS
Built for the Trip
The O'Neill TRVLR Halfback Hybrid 18'' is a men's hybrid short engineered to go from the water to wherever the day takes you. A nylon mini rip-stop stretch fabric with 7% elastane gives you unrestricted movement whether you are paddling out, walking the pier, or catching a flight. At 115 GSM, the fabric is light enough to pack flat and durable enough to handle daily use.
Half Elastic Waist and Fit
The half comfort elastic waist is the defining feature of the TRVLR Halfback. The rear half of the waistband is elasticated for an easy on-and-off fit, while the front sits flat for a clean, structured look. An internal tunnel drawcord lets you dial in the fit precisely. The zipper fly and front button closure keep everything secure. At an 18'' outseam and 8'' inseam, the cut sits above the knee -- a versatile length that reads as boardshort-casual in the water and smart-casual out of it.
Quick-Dry Anti-Microbial Fabric
The 93% nylon construction sheds water fast. Built-in anti-microbial treatment keeps the fabric fresh through back-to-back wears -- important when you are traveling or spending a full day between sessions. The mini rip-stop weave adds tear resistance without adding bulk or weight.
Pocket Layout
The TRVLR Halfback carries more than its clean silhouette suggests. Two front hand pockets handle everyday carry. A zip coin pocket on the right side secures small valuables. Snap back pockets provide structured rear storage. A dedicated phone pocket keeps your device separated and protected. A locker hanger belt loop rounds out the travel-ready details.
O'Neill Heritage
O'Neill has been shaping California surf lifestyle since 1952. The TRVLR line carries that legacy into a functional travel short that does not ask you to choose between performance and versatility. Available in store and online at Island Water Sports in South Florida.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are O'Neill TRVLR shorts good for travel?
- Yes. The TRVLR Halfback is specifically built for travel. The lightweight 115 GSM nylon rip-stop fabric packs compactly, the quick-dry construction handles water activities and moving between environments, and the anti-microbial treatment keeps the shorts fresh through back-to-back wears.
- What is a hybrid short?
- A hybrid short combines the look of a casual chino or walkshort with the water-ready performance of a boardshort. The TRVLR Halfback uses stretch nylon with quick-dry and anti-microbial properties so it functions in and out of the water, while the flat-front half elastic waist gives it a cleaner silhouette than a traditional boardshort.
- What does the half elastic waist mean on the TRVLR Halfback?
- The half comfort elastic means only the rear half of the waistband is elasticated, while the front waistband stays flat and structured. This gives you the ease of an elastic waist without losing the clean front appearance of a traditional short. An internal drawcord lets you adjust the fit further.
- How does the O'Neill TRVLR Halfback fit?
- The TRVLR Halfback has an 18'' outseam and 8'' inseam, placing the hem above the knee. The half elastic waist and internal tunnel drawcord allow you to fine-tune the waist fit. For best fit reference, consult the variant picker for your size.
- Is the TRVLR Halfback quick-dry?
- Yes. The 93% nylon construction is inherently quick-drying. The light 115 GSM weight means the fabric loses moisture fast, making these shorts practical for any activity that involves water.
- How many pockets does the O'Neill TRVLR Halfback have?
- The TRVLR Halfback has five pockets: two front hand pockets, a zip coin pocket, two snap back pockets, and a dedicated phone pocket. The zip coin pocket and phone pocket keep valuables secure during active use or travel.
