Sick of shorts that quit before you do? It's not you. It's the fabric.

Dear waterman,

  • Do you peel off soaked shorts hours after leaving the water?
  • Are you re-buying the same mall brand every single summer?
  • Have you cut a beach day short because of chafing?

Cheap board shorts are built from stiff 2-way fabric that soaks up water like a sponge, rubs your thighs raw by noon, and turns gray after ten washes. You don't need another pair of those. You need the pair watermen on Maui have trusted for four decades.

Why the Kanaha works
  1. The weave flexes 8 ways. Squat, paddle, climb back on the board. The fabric stretches with you instead of against you.
  2. Water sheds instead of soaking. The poly-spandex blend releases water in minutes, so the shorts stay light from first session to last.
  3. SPF 50 blocks UV all day. The protection is woven into the fabric. It doesn't wash off and it doesn't wear out.
