Who It Is For
These are built for guys who want an easy elastic waist short for beach days, boat trips, or just lounging around South Florida in the heat without dealing with a button fly. The all-over bold print and Mini Motors branding give it a standout look for anyone who wants their boardshorts to do more than blend in.
How to Wear and Care for It
The elastic drawcord waist means these pull on and adjust in seconds, and the faux fly keeps the clean boardshort look without a working zipper to fight with. Because the fabric is a cotton-recycled poly-elastane blend, wash them in cool water to protect both the print and the recycled fibers, and let them air dry to keep the elastic waistband in shape.
