2026 Florence Marine X Cordura® Airtex Boardshorts | Elite Durability for Critical Conditions

When you’re pushing into the red zone—whether it’s a high-intensity prone paddle, a heavy water rescue, or a marathon session at a grinding reef break—the Florence Marine X Cordura® Airtex Boardshorts are built to be unshakeable. Combining the "bulletproof" reputation of Cordura® with high-airflow side panels, these trunks are the pinnacle of utilitarian design. They don't just sit on the surface; they are engineered for high-output watermen who demand equipment that survives the most rigorous ocean environments on earth.

Key Technical Features

• High-Tenacity Cordura® Fabric: The front and back panels are crafted from ultra-tough Cordura® yarns, providing exceptional abrasion resistance and tear strength for when you're dealing with reef, equipment, or heavy surf.
• AIRTEX Breathable Side Panels: Engineered for ventilation and rapid water drainage, these mesh panels dump heat and prevent the "parachute" effect during high-output activity.
• Elastic Comfort Closure: An all-new elastic closure system provides a secure, adaptive fit that moves with you, ensuring the waistband stays locked in place without digging in during deep paddles.
• 18.5" Outseam & Scalloped Hem: A slightly longer, more protective cut that still falls above the knee. The scalloped hem ensures your movement remains fluid and catch-free when popping up or swimming.
• Covert Smartphone Zip Pocket: Features a low-profile side zip pocket designed to fit most smartphones, plus a yellow utility loop for hanging your gear to dry or securing sunglasses.
• Triple-Needle Construction & C0 DWR: Built with bomb-proof seams and an eco-friendly water-repellent finish, these shorts shed water instantly and stay light through the longest sessions.
