These shorts are awesome! They fit great and felt true to size. The best thing is how quickly they dry. I was out in the water on what started out as a warm day, but then moved into a cloudy colder day, but I was not stuck in damp shorts thanks to how fast these guys dried. Did I mention that they are great looking as well and have great back pocket features!

probably good for kayaking, but not so great for surfing. size runs a little big, waistband a little stiff even after many sessions, draw cord doesn't stay tied through double knots, white waistband gets dirty easily, no key tie in pocket, just a zipper. nice shorts, just not surf shorts.

These shorts are very nice. Dry quickly and look great. They ran a little big on me (ordered my standard size and they were a little loose in the waist), but the drawcord fixed that problem.

I almost returned these. They run pretty small. And the top of these has a curve to it, so if your body doesn't curve the same way, it can sit a little funny. The long version sits at the top of the knee, the short, which I also own, comes about mid-thigh or a little higher (yes, they are a little short). I wear these sailing- very comfortable and they dry easily.

I love these shorts. Ordered them in green. Gorgeous color, fit nice.

These board shorts are perfect for outrigger canoing and other paddle sports because they are long enough to not ride up while paddling hard, they dry quickly and they have a zip pocket for my car key!!! That's a big help! Plus, they look good too.

These shorts are comfortable for a wide variety of activities including kayaking, rafting, just lounging around. Love em!

Cute looking shorts. The kelpie green is a bit lighter than the photo (brighter versus the muted color above). The shorts hit right about the knee. They're lightweight and dry quickly. I found them to run a size big. I'm 5'7", 130 lbs and normally wear an 8; but in these shorts the size 6 were a bit loose. Recommend them.
