"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I picked up the RVCA Sands Elastic 17in Short before a trip to the coast and they ended up being the pair I grabbed every single morning. The cotton linen blend has that perfect lived-in breathability that you just cannot fake, and the elastic waist makes them genuinely comfortable from the first coffee of the day all the way through dinner on the patio.""There is a certain kind of day that does not ask much of you, and those are the days that call for the RVCA Sands Elastic 17in Short. A late start, somewhere worth walking to, maybe water involved at some point. These shorts are built for exactly that rhythm, unhurried and easy, with a coastal sensibility that feels right whether you are two blocks from the beach or two time zones away from it. RVCA blended cotton and linen with just a touch of elastane to land on a fabric that breathes like summer is supposed to feel. The linen keeps things light and textured, while the cotton softens it into something you will want to live in, and the hint of stretch in the waist means comfort is never something you have to negotiate. At 17in, the length is relaxed without being sloppy, and the clean, regular fit translates effortlessly from a beach boardwalk to a rooftop bar. These are the shorts that make every day feel a little more like a vacation."
