With their minimalist design and lightweight, fast-drying fabric with DWR, the Patagonia Light and Variable Board Shorts are halfway between your favorite pair of trail runners and a classic set of board shorts. A scalloped leg opening affords mobility for playing in the waves, while a self-draining back pocket is large enough for stashing your stuff. The polyester ripstop on The Light and Variables is durable and Bluesign® Approved so you can feel good about wearing these surf shorts that even grant you a little sun protection thanks to their UPF 40 rating.
