Hurley Board Shorts
From LoveToKnow Swimsuits
Hurley board shorts are filled with edge and rock n' roll style.
About Hurley Board Shorts
Most board shorts strive to reflect the calm and beauty of the ocean, and to that end, much of the apparel comes in bright, bold colors with plenty of palm trees and flowers for added ambience. Don't expect Hurley board shorts to exactly replicate that style.
While its true that a few of the designs do have palm trees splashed across them, the majority of the designs that do feature foliage are much more crisp and streamlined. Some styles feature blocks of colors while others are plaid, but all of the them offer a clean, edgy vibe.
In essence, these shorts are the very epitome of "cool". Imagine all of your favorite rock bands decided to go to the beach; this is what they would probably wear.
Hurley Style For Men
On Hurley's official site, you'll find a large selection of Hurly board shorts for men, each more appealing than the last. The following designs stand out in the line.
Phantom 60 Kings Road Board Short
This short is a combination of several different complimentary colors including sapphire, brown and olive green that are all blended together in a square-box pattern. What you'll really like about these shorts is the attention to detail; even the waistband reflects the overall design pattern. These short are available for about $59.00.
Phantom 60 Rocket Men's Board Shorts
These shorts feature a brown plaid pattern, but it's far from boring. Instead of being a solid color block of brown, you'll find that the pattern is broken up by shades of beige and yellow stripes. The overall appearance is one that is quite sophisticated. You can expect to pay about $59.00 for this look as well.
Phantom 60 Icon Mens's Board Short
Speaking of sophistication, you'll be hard-pressed to find a pair of board shorts more sophisticated than the "Icon". Done in a deep slate grey, this design almost looks as if someone took a beloved men's tie pattern and reworked it into a pair of board shorts. The end result is quite charming indeed; the color stays elegant, while the small star pattern adds to the couture-like quality. You can expect to pay about $57.00 for this pair.
Additional Shopping Sites
Some of the other sites you can try include:
- Killer Dana: Killer Dana offers a full spectrum of Hurley looks from the elegant to the sublime. However, there is not much difference in terms of the price, so you can expect to pay as much as you would at the official Hurley website.
- Altec.ocm: Several different colors are offered here, but unfortunately, they are all of the same pattern. Still, you may appreciate the extra information that Altec provides.
Women's Looks
Although the Hurley site does not showcase any female board shorts (much of the women's section is devoted to bikinis and the like), it is possible to find some board shorts for women.
- Killer Dana: Not only does this site offer styles for men, but for women as well. The longest short that's offered is Hurley One & Only Grain Board short for $36.00. This is a black board short that sports the Hurley logo as well as a hot pink string tie.
On the other end of the spectrum is Hurley’s Keepers Board shorts. This is a lovely checkered pattern of grey and white finished with a white string tie. You can expect to pay around $38.00 for this look.
- Dillard’s: At Dillard's you can find the Hurley Mascara Board Shorts for about $40.00, but once again the pair is pretty short (falling a little higher than mid-thigh). The blue piping and drawstring waist makes this pair a winner.
Putting It All Together
Hurley shorts are a fantastic ways to play at the beach without having to forsake any of your fashion sensibilities. These styles are crisp and are the very epitome of cool, yet they manage to remain highly functional.
Additionally, women who also love the board short look have several different online shopping sites that they can visit as well. Whether flying solo or matching a partner, these are terrifically stylish shorts.
