Product Information
Full details
These Quiksilver board shorts are designed for adult males seeking comfortable and stylish swimwear for beach or water activities. The key benefit is their classic straight-leg fit combined with a quick-drying, water-repellent treatment. A potential caveat is the fixed waist, which offers less adjustability than elasticated styles.

FAQs
What does 'PFC-Free Hydrophobic Treatment' mean?
It means the fabric has been treated to repel water without using perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs), which are harmful to the environment. This treatment helps the shorts dry faster.
What is the inseam length?
The product description specifies a 16-inch outseam, which refers to the length from the waistband to the hem on the side. The inseam (crotch seam) is not specified but is typically shorter on board shorts.
How do I know if the size 34 waist will fit me?
Size 34 refers to the men's waist size in UK sizing. It's recommended to consult a general men's waist size chart for precise measurements, as fit can vary between brands.
Can I wear these for casual outings, not just swimming?
Yes, the straight leg fit and classic style make them suitable for casual wear on warm days, such as walking or socializing.
How durable are these board shorts?
They are constructed with durable materials designed for regular use in water sports and general wear, intended to withstand elements like saltwater and sun.
What is the fit like?
They feature a 'Straight Leg Fit', which is a classic, timeless cut that is neither too tight nor too baggy, offering comfortable movement.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel stiff after drying
Ensure you have thoroughly rinsed out all salt or chlorine. If stiffness persists, a light tumble dry on low heat (check care label) or airing them out might help.
Drawcord is difficult to tighten
Check that the drawcord is not tangled and is threaded through the eyelets correctly. Ensure the fabric around the waistband is smooth.
Color appears faded
Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading. Always rinse after use and dry in the shade. Consider washing with a color-safe detergent.
