We’re just a couple of surfers who got tired of paying outrageous prices for name brand board shorts just because they’ve got somebody’s name or logo on them.

We surf, we wear out our shorts and we want new ones… BUT we don’t want to pay $50-$75 for boardshorts so we can advertise for Quicksilver, Roxy and Billabong!

So we searched around and while we were vacationing in Hawaii we hooked up with a guy who manufactures his own line of board shorts making mens board shorts, women’s board shorts and even board shorts for kids. He doesn’t have a famous name or even a cool logo BUT he does have cheap board shorts and surf trunks that we wore, surfed in and loved so we decided it was a “go”.

We’re now part of the Discount Beach Gear Family of Stores where you can also pick up some awesome rash guard shirts to pair up with our board shorts before you hit the beach!

We’re just starting with a few styles and colors but rest assured that we will be adding more as our business grows so keep checking back. If you order something from us you’ll get a email blast once or twice a year so we’ll remind you to come back in case you forget.

This week we’re putting these adorable pink girl’s board shorts on sale just for our Buy-Board-Shorts.com blog readers. 

Like all of our boardshorts and swim shorts, these kid’s board shorts are quality shorts at a decent price. Why pay big bucks to wear some logo and advertise for  brand name board shorts like Roxy or Quicksilver when your little one will be grown out of them in one summer anyway?!?

Our kid’s swim shorts regularly sell for just $12.95 and this week only you can get an additional 5% off this already low, super discount price simply by using coupon code kids-board-shorts when you checkout! Just add the board shorts to your shopping cart and enter the coupon on the second page of the shopping cart after you enter your address and BEFORE you pay.

When you buy men’s board shorts keep in mind they have longer legs compared to most shorts. The legs come down to the knee or just above it. They’re cut to wear baggy and ride low on the hips.

Longer legs provide protection to surfers’ thighs and help keep them from getting rashes from their surfboard. The baggy cut provides room to paddle, jump up and maneuver on the waves.

Colorful patterns are typical along with Hawaiian themed prints. You can also find them in solid colors or just about any pattern you can imagine. Don’t be surprised if you see a buff, macho surfer wearing board shorts with colorful flowers on them. When it comes to men’s boardshorts it’s more colorful the better for some guys.

When you buy women’s board shorts they will typically have shorter legs that hit about mid thigh while some styles are similar to the men’s board shorts and hit above the knee. Also like the men’s they are cut to ride low on the hips and not up around your waist. Be sure so keep that in mind when shopping for women’s boardshorts as you may want to purchase a slightly larger size than you normally wear.

Women’s boardshorts come in a wide variety of colors, patterns and prints just like the men’s with maybe a bit more emphasis on female colors like pink or turquoise.

You can wear board shorts in the water by themselves, (women do need to wear a bikini top or bathing suit at most beaches), or pair them up with a rash guard to provide your skin with the ultimate in rash and UV protection that will stay on no matter how long you’re in the water.

Quality boardshorts will have reinforced seams that are usually triple-stitched for strength. Most come with a small Velcro pocket to hold your keys, cash or surfboard wax.

The standard closing is a Velcro fly with a tie or drawstring across the top. Most men’s board shorts do not have a mesh lining.

Last but not least, when shopping for boardshorts look for light, quick-drying material such as microfiber. Microfiber is commonly used to make board shorts because it is soft, light , provides minimal water repelling action and is quick-drying. What you don’t want are thick, heavy shorts that will bog you down and take forever to dry when you get out of the water.

Besides looking great and being totally stylish, men’s and women’s board shorts are comfortable and fun to wear even if you never get near the water!
