"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""These boardshorts have that perfect throwback surf look but feel totally modern in the water. The fabric has a soft, washed finish that dries fast, and the 2-way stretch gives plenty of mobility whether I’m paddling out or hanging on the beach.""The Quiksilver Original Straight Leg 18in Board Shorts bring together surf heritage and everyday versatility. Inspired by classic boardshort design, this style features a straight-leg silhouette and an 18-inch outseam that moves easily from lineup to lifestyle. Built with a soft 2-way stretch blend of recycled polyester, organic cotton, and elastane, they deliver the freedom to move with a lived-in feel and reduced environmental impact. With a washed cotton look and durable construction, these boardshorts feel timeless yet totally functional—ready for dawn patrols, travel days, or post-surf hangs."
