Where the Morning Starts Before the Sun Is Up
Some mornings start in the dark. You pull on your shorts, grab your board, and walk down to a break that has been rolling in all night. Whether you are heading out for a quiet Poʻipū session or chasing the first clean lines at Hanalei, the trade winds are already moving across the water when you hit the sand.
The Koloa Spiral Makai Boardshorts were made for that kind of day, the kind that stretches from paddling out into a long afternoon of catching a few waves and sitting on the sand between sets. When the surf settles, the same pair moves easily to a picnic, a walk along the shoreline, or the drive back to town, with the tie-dye print and color block adding a little island brightness to whatever comes next.
What Goes Into It
- Fabric: 90% polyester and 10% elastane
- 4-way stretch for easy movement in the water and on land
- Outseam length: 19 inches
- Engineered color block with tie-dye print
- Side zip pocket with waterproof tape detail
- Lycra fly
- Available in sizes 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 36 and 38
Each detail is chosen with active days in mind. The stretch moves with you through a long paddle, and the side zip pocket keeps small essentials close while you move from the water to the next stop.
Fit and Sizing
These boardshorts are cut with a 19 inch outseam, a length that sits comfortably above the knee on most builds. Choose the waist size that matches your usual measurement, and check the size chart before ordering if you fall between sizes.
How to Wear It
Wear them straight from a dawn session at Anini or a sunny afternoon at Kalapakī, then keep them on for lunch, a beach walk, or a casual evening. The color block pairs well with a plain tee or tank in a solid shade, letting the print do the talking without competing for attention.
Care
Rinse them with fresh water after salt and sand days to keep the print looking bright. For washing and drying, follow the care label inside the shorts.
