All about this product
General
A Patagonia classic, the Wavefarer Board Shorts are the foundation of the Patagonia board shorts collection. Made of quick-drying NetPlus postconsumer recycled nylon faille made from recycled fishing nets to help reduce ocean plastic pollution, and with a PFC-Free Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish, they’re the ultimate go-anywhere, do-anything surf trunks.
The three-piece, self-lined waistband contours to hips for a customizable fit along with a flat-lying fly with hidden button and ladderlock drawstring closure ensuring easy on and off. Additonal features include a self-draining right-rear pocket with noncorroding, recyclable plastic zipper, an internal key loop for easy drying and rolled side seams that overlap with self-binding for unrestricted movement and mobility in the surf.

About this brand
Patagonia are in the business to save our home planet. Their values reflect those of a business started by a band of climbers and surfers, and the minimalist style they promoted. The approach they take toward product design demonstrates a bias for simplicity and utility. Their criteria for the best product rests on function, repairability, and, foremost, durability. Among the most direct ways we can limit ecological impacts is with goods that last for generations or can be recycled so the materials in them remain in use. Making the best product matters for saving the planet.
