Birdwell uses only the highest quality and most durable materials available. We use two main fabrics for our board shorts:
SurfNyl™
- Our original, proprietary nylon fabric. Extremely durable and will break in over time similar to denim.
- SurfNyl has effectively zero stretch or give. For a more relaxed fit, we recommend ordering 1 size up from your normal pant size.
- Featured on the following Men's styles: 310, 311, 312.
- Featured on the following Women's styles: 402, 403.
SurfStretch™
- Our newer, more technical 4-way stretch fabric. Lighter, softer, and more flexible than SurfNyl.
- SurfStretch does stretch or give to a certain extent. We recommend ordering your normal pant size.
- Featured on the following Men's styles: 807, 808.
- Featured on the following Women's styles: 404, 405.
Usage
- Please keep in mind that fit preference will vary.
- If you live an active lifestyle in the water, you will likely want your shorts to fit more snug.
- If relaxing by the pool is more your scene, some additional room in the waist may be preferable.
- Birdwell board shorts are intended to sit directly on the hips.
