Slip into the Carve Designs Women's Pipeline Board Short and tear up the glassy barrels from Rincon to Oahu. These loose-fitting boarding baggies give you all the freedom that the boys enjoy, unlike the butt-hugging hot pants that most companies pass off as women's trunks. Carve Designs applied a durable water-repellant finish to the 100% polyester fabric, so the Pipeline Short will be dry by the time you get to your car. An eight-inch inseam hits right above the knee.

Bottom Line: Paddle out and get some, girl.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

Comfy and cute!

By:

I don't fit shorts easy (size four waist but larger than your standard size 4 thigh)... These not only fit muscular thighs, they also were way cute. But the real gem about these shorts would be the fabric. It is soft yet durable. Great board short!

Do you know the measurements for the thigh area? Those of use

Do you know the measurements for the thigh area? Those of use with meatier thighs have a difficult time finding board shorts that are not too tight in that area!

While I wouldn't call these tight, I found them to be more fitted in the thigh, and especially in the hip, than Carve Design's Freestyle and Paddler shorts. I would consider those two instead of this one. The correct size for my waist in these looked terrible in the hip and thigh (though that's often a problem for me in most brands).

I just sent mine back because they were too big. I have meaty thighs as well and they were loose. Even if I was able to get a smaller size (they were out) they would have had enough room.

Pipeline Short rocks...

This is so F'in cute! Love the gym short look! The best part of this short is how soft the fabric is, the generous fit (who wants a snuggy wet board short?), and the "no velcro" in the fly - instead they use a soft stretchy fabric that is "forgiving," especially at that time of month! Don't miss it!

Do these board shorts have any kind of a panty lining?

cute and comfortable

These are really flattering and comfortable. I will probably wear them for more than just water sports! Yes, they do run a little large: I am normally a size 4 in shorts, and the size 2 in these fits perfectly.

I really like the fit and color of the Dusk Wildflower board shorts, they are just the right length for my 5' 5" frame, and hit right below mid-thigh.

Really like these, but with a lot of activity on the water they start riding a little low. Roomy in hips, thighs and good lower thigh length without looking baggy.
I bought these for an active scuba diving vacation in the caribbean warm waters (i normally but guy's board shorts since the girl's tend to not be cut for a women's shape) and they were great. the only thing is that when dry they ride perfectly on your hips (great) but while being active in the water they do feel like they start riding a little to low -- not a big deal since i wear a bikini bottom underneath as well, but just a little annoying.

perfect long board shorts

By:
November 18, 2008

These are cute board shorts. I got a small and they have a relaxed fit (not loose enough to fall off but they hang off me a bit)and hit me right at the knee (I'm 5'2). I think I will wear these for years.

These are super comfortable shorts, they fit really well I found they run true to size, a touch on the big side but I kinda like that fit!
