The reason the size run goes from a 28 up to a 54 is that we sell to teenagers on their first shortboard and to men who gave up on finding a boardshort that fits above a 40. Same short, same 21\" leg, same stretch. Nobody has to settle for a swim trunk with an elastic waist because the surf brand stopped at XL.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWaist sizes\u003c\/strong\u003e — 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 46, 48, 50, 52, 54\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour\u003c\/strong\u003e — Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInseam \/ leg\u003c\/strong\u003e — 21\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRise\u003c\/strong\u003e — low-rise surfer style, intended to sit below the belly button\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClosure\u003c\/strong\u003e — tie front with four HIC grommets, Velcro hook \u0026amp; loop at front waist, Lycra fly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePocket\u003c\/strong\u003e — side flap pocket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFabric\u003c\/strong\u003e — 90% Polyester \/ 10% Spandex, 8-way Octo-Super Stretch, water repellent and quick drying\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction\u003c\/strong\u003e — solid pieced body with contrast overlay striping over body and flap pocket, embroidery\/appliqué on both lower legs, 3-needle smooth inseams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel\u003c\/strong\u003e — HIC (Hawaiian Islands Creation), imported\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow This Fits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrder by your actual waist measurement, not your jeans tag. Measure your hip bone as well as your waist before you choose — this is a low-rise surf cut designed to sit below the belly button, so a man who carries weight in front often sizes by hip rather than natural waist. The 8-way stretch gives you room in the seat and thigh that a rigid boardshort won't, so you don't need to size up for movement. The 21\" leg lands just above the knee on an average-height frame and a little longer if you're under about 5'8\". If you're not sure, call us at (866) 628-4626 and we'll walk through the numbers with you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWear It For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePaddling out at Ho'okipa, beach volleyball, stand-up paddleboard sessions, skate park afternoons, and the kind of day where you're in the ocean at ten and eating lunch in town at one.
