FOUR WAY STRETCH

High performance surfing needs a high performance boardshort that can keep up. Enter: four way stretch material that offers maximum mobility in the water. Phantom Walkshorts afford you the same mobility on land and water, whether you’re hitting the trails, chasing horizons on a stand up paddle board, or killing time between sessions on the volleyball court, etc 

QUICK DRY

Phantom boardshorts dry quickly (because rashes are not a vibe) so you can stay comfortable in between sessions. Phantom Walkshorts wick moisture for all day comfort as well 

DWR COATING 

A water repellent coating offers durability so you can enjoy your Phantoms summer after summer

FLAT SEAMS & WELDED HEMS

Phantom+ styles feature a flow free welded waistband for a secure fit without the bulk and a welded bottom hem to eliminate sand build up

Made from recycled P.E.T. plastic water bottles, wearing Phantom boardshorts is kind of like giving the planet a high five
