The One and Only Hurley Board Shorts fit with a soft and comfortable recycled fabric. Their simple look with subtle branding makes them a nice choice for swimming or lounging by the pool.
These board shorts have Hurley’s dependable brand quality, and they are a big seller. But it is worth noting that many people complain about the thinness of the material and how it can leave your package on display, especially if you choose lighter colors.
The fabric does not stretch, so you may feel a little less able to maneuver during activity. There are also a lot of complaints about inconsistency in sizing. It seems the waist runs large, but they are straight-legged and not stretchy, so can then be quite tight around the butt and crotch. As with many board shorts, there is no inner lining.
These are classic board shorts without elastic at the waist. There’s a tie looping through grommets to keep them up. Need to carry small essentials? There’s a right side cargo pocket.
