Motion-friendly SurfStretch™️ board shorts, now with a timeless message. Part of our Unity Collection, these shorts celebrate that which brings us together, like our shared love for the ocean. Designed specifically to flatter the female form, they now feature additional length.

The difference between making a barrel and going over the falls can often be measured in inches. We’ve received lots of feedback from our female customers requesting that we make a longer pair of our SurfStretch™️ board shorts that they could wear just about anywhere, so we cut a new pattern and went to work.

Our new 405 Board Shorts have the same flattering fit as our 402s, the freedom-granting 4-way stretch of our 404s, and a little something extra: 2 inches of length on the outseam. Their refined, modern cut is tailored with a curved waistband designed to flatter the female form and carries all the classic Birdwell signatures, including an adjustable tab closure and front flap pocket. Like all our SurfStretch™️ shorts, they’re perfect for covering up bikini bottoms or as your go-to yoga partner, and with the new added inches, there’s nowhere under the sun they can’t go.
