Stretch Hydropeak 18in Boardshort - Men's

A PFC-free DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish means that your gear is treated to repel water without using harmful perfluorinated chemicals. This is not only better for the environment but also ensures that you can enjoy your outdoor activities without worrying about toxic substances affecting wildlife and ecosystems.

A fused waistband is created by bonding materials together instead of sewing them, resulting in a smoother and more comfortable fit. This design minimizes bulk and reduces the chance of irritation against your skin, making it ideal for active wear where comfort is key.

4-way stretch fabric allows for movement in all directions—horizontally and vertically. This feature is particularly beneficial for activities like surfing or paddling, as it provides greater flexibility and comfort, enabling you to move freely without restriction.

Clothing made from a recycled performance blend is not only environmentally friendly, as it utilizes materials like recycled plastic bottles, but it also offers excellent performance. This type of fabric wicks away moisture and dries quickly, making it perfect for active situations, especially in water sports.

Slim fit board shorts are designed to be closer to the body, providing a tailored look without being baggy. This style not only enhances your appearance but can also improve performance in the water by reducing drag, allowing for a more streamlined experience while you surf or swim.

The combination of PFC-free DWR finishes, fused waistbands, 4-way stretch fabrics, recycled performance blends, and slim fit designs work together to provide comfort, flexibility, and environmental responsibility. These features ensure that you can enjoy your water sports to the fullest, with gear that performs well and feels great, all while being mindful of the planet.
