Technical information:

What are boardshorts?: Boardshorts are swimming shorts and more generally a style of swimsuit for men and, more recently, for women. They were created in the 1950s for surfing. Over past years they have become a popular style of swimming suit. The name boardshorts comes from their use in watersports using a board, such as surfing. It is primarily used to limit chafing due to the friction of the board. ; How to choose your boardshorts: SESSIONS LASTING MORE THAN TWO HOURS If you like to surf for more than two hours, you will need men's boardshorts with a waistband that fits well around the waist but without feeling uncomfortable. This is the benefit of a flat waistband. For freedom of movement, a slightly elasticated component ensures that the legs can move freely. ; How to choose the size of your boardshorts?: Regarding choosing the size, we invite you to visit the size guide available on the boardshorts product file. Boardshorts 900 are available in sizes S, M, M/L, L, L/XL and XL. Your shape can equally influence your choice. Here is some advice that could help you. If you have more muscles in the torso and legs, then choose a short pair which will highlight your figure. If you are slimmer and more slender then go for longer boardshorts! ; Choosing boardshorts based on the type of waistband.: ELASTICATED WAISTBAND Helps the boardshorts fit to different body shapes. SEMI-ELASTICATED WAISTBAND Ensures a good hold while still adapting to different body types FLAT WAISTBAND Ensures a good hold of the boardshorts when falling into the waves. ANATOMIC WAISTBAND DESIGN Totally innovative boardshorts designed to provide a perfect fit, whatever the wave conditions, and a perfect anatomic design. ; Wave resistance: While surfing, whether it's due to duck diving or a wipe out it is not easy to reposition your boardshorts because they slide down your buttocks... So choosing the correct waistband becomes essential. Choose a flat waistband or an anatomic waistband design for a better fit.
