Recycled

We make our Balmoral Wattle mens board shorts using Italian recycled fabric which was once 8 plastic bottles, salvaged from the coast and transformed into this soft, strong and quick drying fabric that will perform for you on and off the beach.  Please read more about our recycled swim shorts here.

Colour

We love this deep blue and green Australian print hand drawn by Pip in London who has Australia in her heart.  The delicate seedpods of the Banksia men and the slim spiny leaves and pops of yellow blossom of the wattle make any Aussie homesick heart sing.  These board shorts shorts look beautiful in the deep green water and fresh at night teamed with a white t-shirt.

Lining

We’ve put a mesh liner in our men’s swim shorts so you’re safe when diving from decks and bombing from rocky outcrops and so there are no transparency surprises when you come out of the water. The mesh is easily removed with small hand scissors if you prefer to wear your swim shorts without mesh lining.

Sizing

Our model is wearing size 32 swim shorts, and usually takes a size medium/32 pants. He is 6’1″ (185cm) tall with a 39″ (99cm) chest and 32″ (79cm) waist.

Care

We recommend washing your swim shorts in cold water and by hand if possible which helps reduce the micro-fibres shed from clothing entering our waterways.  We also love the Guppy Bag, which does the job for you
