From the beach and pool to the playground and everywhere in between, these boys' Hybrid Boardshorts are made for all-day comfort and kids who rarely stop moving.
Aqua is bright, fresh and unmistakably summer — an easy colour to spot whether they're in the water, on the sand or halfway across the park.
Modern Classics are our most refined boys' Hybrid Boardshorts yet, made from premium 4-way stretch nylon with metal trims and an embroidered logo. Inside, the soft built-in anti-chafe liner replaces loose mesh netting with smooth, stretchy support designed to help reduce rubbing and chafing through swimming, playing and everything that comes after.

THE 2-IN-1 BOARDSHORT
Plenty of kids wear jammers or compression shorts under their boardies for comfort and support. Ours build that layer in: a soft, fitted liner inside a quick-dry, 4-way stretch boardshort. One pair, one purchase, nothing extra to pack or dry.

THE LINER DIFFERENCE
Traditional boardshorts often rely on no liner or loose mesh. Ours use a soft, fitted liner that creates a smooth layer between the thighs and moves with you all day. It’s designed to help reduce rubbing and chafing, without the loose netting found in traditional swim shorts.
