Who It Is For
With a cotton and elastane blend for stretch and comfort, this short is built for anyone splitting the day between surf checks, dirt trails, and laid back hours in between. The elastic waistband and flat drawcord keep it comfortable for all-day movement, and the oversized front patch pockets and snap-closure back pocket add practical storage for keys or a wallet.
Wearing and Caring For It
Because these shorts are pigment overdyed and made to fade, expect the color to shift naturally with wear, sun, and salt exposure, which is part of the intended character of the piece rather than a flaw. The double-needle seams are reinforced to hold up to that repeated use.
