Rip Curl Mirage Downline Boardshorts
The Mirage Downline pairs Rip Curl's Mirage Core Recycled Fabric with a mid fit and an 18 inch outseam, built as a boardshort that works as hard in the water as it does around the dock afterward.
Sustainable, Water Ready Construction
- Mirage Core Recycled Fabric made from Recycled PET
- Hydrophobic quick dry properties
- DWR water repellent treatment
- Pigment printed with heavy enzyme wash
Recycled PET is the raw material behind the Mirage Core fabric, so the shorts are built from reclaimed plastic rather than virgin material. The hydrophobic quick dry finish combined with the DWR water repellent treatment is what keeps the shorts shedding water and drying fast whether you are paddling out or just got out of the boat.
Fit and Everyday Details
- Mid fit
- 18 inch outseam
- Woven label
- Back pocket with flap
The mid fit sits at a length in between board short extremes, and the back pocket with flap gives you a place to stash a key or a card without worrying about it falling out.
Who Wears the Mirage Downline
This is a boardshort for South Florida's surf, boat, and beach routine, made to go from paddling out to a dock lunch without a change of clothes. The quick dry and water repellent properties matter most for anyone in and out of the water multiple times a day, whether that is surfing, wakeboarding, or just spending a full day on the boat.
Getting the Most Out of Them
Rinsing boardshorts in fresh water after time in salt water helps protect both the fabric and any water repellent finish over the long run, and air drying rather than high heat tumble drying tends to preserve a DWR treatment longest. Since these are pigment printed with a heavy enzyme wash, a cold wash cycle when laundering helps keep the print looking sharp.
