In celebration of the bold attitudes and bright colors of the boardshort’s golden era, The Standard has again (check out deets about the original collection here!) partnered up with Quiksilver to reissue a limited edition series of original boardshorts from the 70s and 80s but with modern fits, fabrics and technology. Read more about the inspiration for the collaboration and view fun party pics here. Plus make sure to view our exclusive Standard/Quiksilver video shot by Cheryl Dunn in Costa Rica here.

This exclusive series includes 4 different designs each inspired by a different Standard Hotel location and their respective color identities.

WORLD FORCE OG SCALLOP features blue shorts with white stripes, with blue piping inspired by The Standard, Hollywood's blue pool deck.

FEATURES:

Diamond Dobby Material: The ultimate in in-water performance. No rash. Perfect stretch. Ultra light-weight. Quick dry. Perfect for surfing, sleeping, lounging, getting huge at the gym, hiking, biking… pretty much anything.

18" Length: Back in the ’70s, boardshorts came down to the mid-thigh. In the '90s, they dropped below the knee. As an homage to the golden era of boardshorts, but out of respect to the other guests at The Standard, we met you half way, in the middle and designed these in a reasonable, right-above-the-knee 18" length.

Two Button Closure: True to the originals, these shorts feature snaps instead of drawstrings. One says The Standard, one has the Quiksilver mountain and wave logo.

Subtly Standard: It’s not about the brands, it’s about the boardshorts. We included some very subtle branding; there’s a tonal Standard logo embroidered on the rear waistband and an upside-down Quiksilver patch on the front.

Packable Pouch: Comes packages in a specially designed  waterproof travel bag. Get out of the pool, bag up your boardies and throw them in your suitcase.

Sizing: These boardies run true to size
