The classic Men's Stretch Wavefarer Board Shorts from Patagonia weigh in a tad lighter and get flexible, thanks to a 3.3-oz 100% stretch-woven polyester fabric. They're still chafe-proof, with a forward seam at the crotch and a length that hits just below the knee to prevent wax-rash. The low-rise 3-piece, self-lined waistband contours to the hip line, and our new flat-lying heavy-duty webbing button and plastic zipper pulls are indestructible and corrosion-proof. The easy-access, self-draining side zip pocket has a key loop. Inseam (size 32) is 10"; outseam is 21". Recyclable through the Common Threads Recycling Program.

Comfy Shorts
Theses shorts have a nice light feel to them but the material appears to be made for good wear. The slight stretch makes them great for sporting activities. The waste seems true to size and the legs give provide ample room.

Perfect
Best board shorts I've owned. Fit great, not too long, not too short. The stretch is good, comparable to other companies stretch fabrics, but doesn't feel near as flimsy. The seams are great when you're sitting on your board in the water, no rash. The sizing is right on with other patagonia shorts, aka true to size. I liked them enough to get multiple colors. Verygood.

Patagonia Wavefarer Board Shorts
These are ridiculously good. The fit fairly true to size, maybe a tad big, but that is the only thing not great I have to say about them. The stretch enables unhindered mobility for whatever you do pre or post swim, the material dries in a matter of minutes, seconds if you are using a towel and the Ozonic Green is an unreasonable fantastic color. I'm 6'1", about 170 and a 31 is great, it slides up a little in water, but never down. Great product.
