Quiksilver Union Heather Amphibian Hybrid Shorts for Men
Shoppers searching for a quiksilver amphibian hybrid short land here for good reason: this is the do-it-all trunk Quiksilver built to move straight from the office to the lineup and back out for the night. Belt loops and side pockets give it a clean, everyday look, while the quick-dry, high-performance surf fabric keeps it functional the moment you hit the water.
What It's Made Of
The shell is a 90% recycled polyester, 10% elastane blend using Repreve traceable, recycled 4-way stretch polyester made from plastic bottles, so the stretch and recovery hold up over repeated wear and washes. A DryFlight water-repellent hydrophobic coating is applied to help the fabric shed water rather than absorb it.
- Repreve traceable, recycled 4-way stretch heather polyester
- DryFlight water-repellent hydrophobic coating
- 20 inch outseam, long length, regular fit
- Non-corrosive zip fly with button closure
- Draining mesh side pockets and a back zip pocket
Who Should Wear These
This hybrid short is built for the guy who wants one pair of shorts to cover a beach morning, a boat afternoon, and a casual dinner after. The regular fit and long 20 inch outseam keep it wearable off the water, while the draining mesh pockets and zip fly mean it can still go straight into the surf or onto a boat without a wardrobe change.
Wear, Break-In, and Care
Because the fabric is quick-dry and water-repellent, there is no lengthy break-in period, it performs from the first wear. Rinse with fresh water after saltwater or chlorine exposure and let the draining mesh pockets do their job by air drying rather than wringing them out, which helps the DryFlight coating and recycled stretch fibers last longer.
About Quiksilver
Quiksilver's clothing lines are built around sun-drenched days on the beach, watching the surf come in with friends. While the brand's boardshorts and everyday pieces keep a laid-back, comfortable design, Quiksilver also builds for the competitive side of surfing, creating gear meant to keep up with a hardcore surfer's pursuits.
