Patagonia Wavefarer Board Shorts - Women's

Item #PAT1041 | 25 in Stock

call me an elitist but..

By Ranked #198 - Women's Shorts February 11, 2009

K. Yes, these shorts run small, so order a size up. But skip ordering all together if you plan on doing any real distance swimming. These shorts are cute for beach ball parties and maybe an easy river float, but have way too much drag for a rigorous swim. Also, i don't trust the snap'n'tie closure which seems sorta wimpy and one well placed class 2 rapid could take 'em right off! And as much as i love the idea of swimming au' natural, I rather not have to loose a $50 investment while doing so.
