These lightweight board shorts bring bold monochrome geometry to days on the water and weekends in town. The black-and-white woven-stripe pattern feels modern and hand-drawn, like architectural lines folded over each other.
- 100% polyester — strong, shape-retaining, quick-drying fabric
- Extra-light 3.2 oz/yd² material for airy comfort and fast drying
- Elastic waistband with black drawstring for adjustable, secure fit
- Side-seam construction with pockets for structure and convenient storage
- Vibrant, long-lasting print with automatically matched seam thread color
More product details
Wear them when you want movement and edge — the extra-light fabric skims your skin and dries fast after a swim, while the soft elastic waistband and drawstring keeps everything secure during paddle sessions or beach volleyball. Pockets sit along the side seams for small essentials, and the regular cut gives a relaxed silhouette that layers naturally with a rash guard, tee, or linen shirt. They suit someone who pays attention to form and function: surfers, swimmers, and city beachgoers who prefer minimal palettes and graphic detail. Bring them on summer escapes, long boat days, or casual seaside hangs — they behave like technical swimwear but read like everyday street shorts.
