Patagonia Men's Wavefarer II Board Shorts

Excellent for surfing and swimming, Patagonia's Wavefarer II Board Shorts feature an extended outseam profile that hits below the knees when sized properly. It's made with a fast-drying Supplex nylon fabric that's backed with a three-piece, mesh-lined waistband that helps keep the short from slipping away during surprise dunks. The one-button gusseted fly is a new touch, although you can add extra security with the front tie closure at the waist. Patagonia also updated the angled side pocket with a better zipper and a flat key clip that helps keep valuables on your person (or at least in your shorts) throughout the day.

Good trunks
These are really nice shorts. They dry very quickly, except for in the waist where the shorts are made from a different material. Over all I give these shorts a thumbs up.

Awesome Board-shorts, A+ quality
Fantastic shorts/ swim wear. I am usually a 36 waist, and these were true to the size (36). I only wish my size was available in the blue Hibiscus version; I'd buy them in a second. Great delivery and service.

Is this Handy? - Yes - No

Continue to be a great product
Great comfortable trunks that dry very quickly. Good cut, not too tight, not to baggy. Better than previous versions. Pocket is very well designed and super secure. My only gripe is that they tend to ride up when you're walking, resulting in some chaffing. I had a 3 hour hike back from a little bay in Costa Rica that left me with a raw spot in a place I'd rather not have had one... This is only an issue on long walks. Patagonia makes a lined version that doesn't have this problem if you're going to be doing a lot of walking.

Sweet boards!
I haven't worn these to the beach yet -- it's still winter. But when I do, they'll be great! Material has a good feel and they sit right at the waist. The button is hard to maneuver with all the laces to tie. However, they still make everything look good. Great board shorts and worth the money
