The Cordura® Utility Short is our most functional short ever. Made with 4-way stretch CORDURA® fabric – a high-tensile strength nylon that’s both tough and lightweight – these have more body than our standard boardshorts helping them drape well. Added details like front slash zip pockets and a contrast plier utility pocket on the side panel keep tools close at hand.
CORDURA® fabric has served those demanding the most from their garments – from alpinists to the military – for generations. As a boardshort material, it provides a tough exterior for the days we're working, but enough stretch and softness to keep us chafe-free after hours of hard output.
BUILT FOR: FISHING, SAILING EXPEDITIONS, WORKING THE LAND, ANYTHING & EVERYTHING
We’ve spent a lot of time ensuring the things you get from us are built to last. But, if you show them the right care, they’ll last even longer – and stay out of the landfill.
Read on for our suggestions on how to care for your boardshorts.
Less Laundering. Less Impact.
When you wash your boardshorts – especially those with polyester construction – they ‘shed’ microfiber plastics that often end up in our oceans. Whenever possible, we suggest spot-treating and hang-drying our garments. This ultimately saves water, is easier on your gear extending longevity and reduces microfiber shedding.
Hand Wash.
Washing machines can be pretty brutal on boardshorts over time. Aside from shedding microfiber plastic, they can wreak havoc on the seams, the water-repellency and the longevity of the short. Whenever possible, wash by hand with fresh water and gentle soap. If you absolutely have to wash them in a machine, we suggest a side-load washer without a center agitator as this will be easier on your gear and help extend its longevity.
Hang Dry.
Never put your boardshorts in the dryer. It’s hot in there. Really hot. This is especially true with our Weld Boardshort, but applies to the rest of our line. Always, always, always hang them on your backyard fence or a line to air dry.
We stand behind our gear. If you’re not satisfied with your order, return it within 30 days in new, unused condition with the original packaging and tags for a replacement or full refund. If you believe there’s a manufacturing defect that didn’t come from wear and tear, you can contact our customer service here for next steps.
