Fasten your shorts and gradually pull them downwards. If they are easy to pull down, it means they are too big and you could be in for a few surprises once you’re in the water surrounded by waves!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eHow to choose boardshorts according to length?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eShorter cuts (between 14” and 17”) give you freedom of movement and allow you to do a wide range of water sports, including surfing (for occasional sessions of less than 1 hour).\nLonger cuts (between 17” and 20”) reduce irritation from the board or wax on the thighs, and at the top of the knees when paddling. These cuts are therefore better suited to regular or even intensive surfing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhat are boardshorts?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoardshorts is a term used to designate this type of swimwear used in the world of surfing and water sports.\nPractical and comfortable, they are suitable for both men and women.\nThis type of swimwear was created in the 1950s for surfing. In more recent years, they have become a popular style of swim shorts.\nThe name “boardshorts” comes from their use in water sports using a board, such as surfing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSun protection: The essential equipment for boardshorts\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn summer, when the weather is hot but the water is cool, surfers tend to make their surfing sessions longer without changing their equipment. The risk of sunburn is therefore multiplied.\nDid you know?\n10 to 15% of uv reflects off of the water surface meaning that 40 to 95% penetrates through up to 25 cm under water. This is why boardshorts combined with sun protection (uv top, etc.) are becoming the essential equipment for warm water surfing.\nDiscover our sun protection range!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWaistband\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoardshorts 100 Standard feature an elasticated waistband with an anatomic design that keeps them securely in place in the sea when falling in the waves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInner briefs\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoardshorts 100 standard have built-in briefs made from BOSSIS, a stretch mesh for an even better fit and reduced chafing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eFast drying 100 range\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is quite uncomfortable to feel the sand sticking to your boardshorts because they are still soaked with water, or worse still, to feel the fabric of the boardshorts sticking to your skin.\nTo avoid this and to maximise comfort when you wear your swimsuit wet, we recommend you choose swim shorts made from a synthetic fibre fabric component. Water will drain away faster and the swimsuit will dry quickly, keeping chafing at bay.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003ePockets\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoardshorts 100 Standard have three pockets, two of which are at the sides.
