A Boardshort Built for Everyday Water Time
The Salty Crew Kelp Cruiser Boardshort is a mens boardshort for anyone searching Salty Crew board shorts that hold up to real use, not just poolside lounging. It is built from a recycled performance fabric blend with 4 way stretch, so it moves with you whether you are paddling out or hauling gear at the dock.
Materials and Construction
- 19 inch outseam
- 72% recycled polyester, 20% cotton, 8% elastane
- Recycled performance fibers
- 4-way stretch, washed back fabrication
- Side hand pockets and a back patch pocket with velcro closure
- Anti-rash interior soft thread
The recycled polyester and elastane blend is what gives this boardshort its stretch and quicker drying feel compared to a plain cotton short, while the anti-rash interior thread is built specifically to reduce chafing during paddling and repeated water entry.
Who It Is Built For
This boardshort suits men who spend their time surfing, boating, or fishing around South Florida and need a short that can go from the water straight into the day without a change of clothes. The velcro closed back pocket is built to keep small items secure through waves and boat wakes.
Wear, Care, and Break In
Boardshorts built with recycled polyester and elastane blends like this one are generally best rinsed in fresh water after ocean or pool use and washed cold, since saltwater and chlorine left to sit can shorten the life of the stretch fibers and the velcro closure.
The Salty Crew Story
Salty Crew began as a tribute to traditional surf culture, honoring the explorers and hard working watermen who took risks on their own terms. The brand blends modern fabrics and technology into surf inspired apparel for people who keep finding refuge in the sea.
