What Are Board Shorts? No Fluff Answer

09 Sep.,2023

 

Board Shorts are a form of swimming shorts worn by Men, Women or any gender. The critical difference between board shorts and other swimming shorts is that the board short goes to knee length or longer. Unlike other swimming trunks, that you will wear in freshwater lakes, pools or in the ocean that only go mid-leg or shorter in length.

Board shorts originated in Hawaii and were quickly adapted into the surfing culture as the go-to swim shorts to wear while riding the waves. In the early 2000s, board shorts became more mainstream as the UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) gained in popularity, and most of their fighters wore variations of the board short. 

Board shorts are made from polyester or nylon, durable material that can hold up in active settings like surfing, MMA or working out in the gym. There is no inner mesh lining in them which allows you to be active in them for long periods without creating a rash on your inner things. The loose-fitting style of a board short helps dry the shorts faster. 

Wearing board shorts will allow you to dry off faster, and the length of the shorts with full pockets can also allow you to wear them around town afterward. For many people, this is the selling point for buying board shorts over shorter swim trunks.
