Afends The Wreck 20" Boardshorts - Black

2026 Afends The Wreck 20" Boardshorts | High-Performance Hemp for the Modern Waterman

Lock in and head out with The Wreck 20" Boardshorts, a technical masterpiece designed to handle everything from heavy shorebreak to long days on the boat. Merging old-school aesthetics with futuristic fabric technology, these shorts offer a rock-solid fixed waist for security in the surf and enough stretch to keep your "drive" and flow unrestricted. It’s the ultimate piece of surf kit for those who demand durability without sacrificing their environmental values.

Key Technical Features

• Hemp & Recycled Blend (170gsm): This lightweight fabric is a triple threat. Hemp provides natural antimicrobial properties and UV resistance, while recycled polyester and cotton ensure these shorts dry in a flash once you're back on the sand.

• 4-Way Stretch: Engineered with 6% Elastane, the fabric moves with you, not against you. Whether you're digging into a bottom turn or scrambling over rocks, you'll have the flexibility you need.

   

• Water-Repellent Coating: The quick-dry finish ensures you won't be lugging around heavy, sodden gear. They transition from the lineup to the pub in record time.

• Heavy-Duty Cargo Pocket: Features a secure Velcro closure and drain hole, perfect for stashing keys or wax without worrying about losing them to the whitewater.

• Fixed Waist & Mesh Fly: A traditional drawcord closure and mesh fly flap provide a secure, comfortable fit that won't slip when you're taking a heavy set on the head.

Why You’ll Love It

The Wreck is the go-to for the serious surfer who wants a longer, 20-inch outseam for extra protection and a classic silhouette. Between the contrast stitching and the detailed side trim, they look as sharp as they perform. Note: These run a bit small, so we recommend sizing up one notch to keep your fit dialled and comfortable.
