300 Boardshorts - 8"

Story

Boardshorts built to outlast a lifetime of swell, hand-sewn in the USA

The 300 Boardshorts represent over 60 years of Birdwell’s relentless pursuit of the perfect surf trunk. Built from two layers of their proprietary, ultra-tough SurfNyl® fabric, these shorts are designed to repel water and dry in record time. With a medium-length cut that balances mobility and coverage, they are the ultimate functional tool for the serious waterman.

About Birdwell

Before transcending sport, style or culture, surfing was as simple as “some tasty waves and a cool buzz.” The pioneering Birdwell “Beach Britches” were also appropriately simple: quick-drying and tailored for mobility, brightly colored for style, and in high demand by everyone who flipped open the earliest issues of Surfer Mag. Over 40 years and four generations of family ownership later, very little at Birdwell has changed. We’re amped to offer Birdwell’s original 301 and 303 Britches (the latter features a slightly longer inseam), which are still constructed from the same ultra-fast-drying nylon fabric, and stitched together with a rugged nylon thread. You’ll also find Birdwell’s purpose-forward, chafe-free fit in the vivid hues of a California summer. Oh, and one more thing hasn’t changed: they’re still lovingly made right down the coast in Santa Ana, where it all began. Grab your pintail and load up the Woody — that cool buzz awaits.
