Description
Our design team has created boardshorts specially adapted for surfing in warm water, for sessions lasting less than 1 h What is a boardshort? A boardshort is a pair of swimming shorts and, generally, a style of swimwear for men and, recently, for women. They were initially created in the 1950s for surfing. In recent years, their use as swimwear has become popular. The name "boardshort" is due to their use in water sports where a board is used, such as surfing. They serve mainly to limit irritation due to friction against the board. How to choose your boardshorts? FOR SESSIONS OF LESS THAN 1 HOUR If you surf for less than an hour, you will need men's swimwear that does not slip down every time you submerge in the water. Short boardshorts can allow for greater freedom of movement, which is recommended for bodyboarding. The drying speed will be sufficient so that sand does not stick to the men's boardshorts. How to choose the size of the boardshorts? Regarding the choice of size, we invite you to consult the size guide on the boardshorts product page. The 100 boardshorts are available in sizes S, M, L, XL and XXL. Your physical build can also guide you when choosing. Below, we offer you some tips. If you have a muscular torso and legs, choose short swimwear that highlights your figure. If you are rather thin and slender, opt for longer boardshorts. Choosing boardshorts according to the type of waistband. ELASTIC WAISTBAND Facilitates the adaptability of the boardshorts to different body types. SEMI-ELASTIC WAISTBAND Provides good support while allowing adaptability to different body types. FLAT WAISTBAND Provides good support for the boardshorts during falls in the waves. Good support in the waves When you are surfing, when doing a duck dive or due to a "wipe out", it is not easy to have to reposition your men's boardshorts because they have slipped down to the middle of your buttocks... Choosing the waistband is essential. Choose an elastic or semi-elastic waistband with a drawstring or a flat waistband for better support. Limiting irritation This is surely the most important criterion. It is common for friction zones of the boardshorts or seams to irritate the skin. Our boardshorts are designed, both in terms of their shape and assembly methods, to minimise irritation during sessions. Freedom of movement In surfing, bodyboarding and bodysurfing, the legs perform a great effort, so the men's swimwear must not restrict bending or kicking movements. The short shape promotes freedom of movement. Drying speed It is quite annoying to feel sand sticking to the boardshorts because they are still wet. To avoid this, opt for a "stretch" component, as it evacuates water more quickly.
