Made of a light, durable and quick-drying 4.3-oz Supplex nylon in a wide range of solids and prints, the Wavefarers feature a natural fit with 3-piece self-lined waistband that contours to the hip. The forward inseam helps eliminate chafing in the water, and the flat-lying fly with single rubber button is optimized for comfort while paddling. Closure is a bartacked ladder-lock drawstring for security and durability. Self-draining pocket has a noncorrosive plastic zipper, internal key loop and added zipper pull for ease of use. 21" outseam.

How to shop for men's Patagonia board shorts
"Over the past couple of years, Patagonia has both expanded and tweaked their best-selling collection of men’s board shorts. These changes are all for the better — but it can make shopping for a pair confusing. For example, the summer 2013 collection includes 8 different shorts. Eight!! That’s a lot of choices, right? That means there are Patagonia board shorts for everyone — and really, these are all super nice, they’re the best board shorts out there — but if you want to make sure you choose the best pair for you, I’m here to help..."

Comments about Patagonia Wavefarer Board Shorts - 21" (Men's):
I am about 6ft tall and wear a waist sized 32'-33' depending on brand. I ordered the short in waist size 32' and they're still pretty big in the waist. Also they're a little longer than I expected from considering the inseam/outseam length. Overall though a really nice pair of board shorts and made with exceptional quality. Maybe I should just gain some weight.

Comments about Patagonia Wavefarer Board Shorts - 21" (Men's):
Purchased these shorts for summer whitewater kayaking. I like the fact that they dry amazingly fast and are almost completely dry by the time I reach the end of a shuttle on the Ocoee. The only drawback I see is the fact that I would personally like a few more pockets. As always, great patagonia quality...

Comments about Patagonia Wavefarer Board Shorts - 21" (Men's):
These board shorts look and feel great. They fit well for me (32 inch waist is true to size). Love the styling. There is no Velcro to get in the way and there is relatively nothing that can go wrong with them on long trips.
