Built for Land & Sea
Designed and tested on Maui, and built from the finest Swiss fabrics and fabric technologies, our Spartan Shorts are engineered to perform as well on land as they are at sea.
These are the hardest working, most versatile board shorts available.
When we set out to create the ultimate board shorts we wanted the perfect balance of form and function. So we took extreme performance Swiss fabrics and tailored them into great fitting trunks that we tested to near destruction on Maui.
Regularly reviewed as the world's best board shorts, our Spartan Shorts are luxurious, tailored, hydrophobic (water-repellent) and built to last. And they look just as good out of the water as they do in - so you can wear them all day.
The Bluesmiths Difference
Daily Wear
These aren't your average board shorts: They're uniquely tailored to function as well on land as they do on the water.
Next-level, luxury Swiss stretch fabric, combined with a 3 pocket, no-inseam, low-bulk design and Bluesmiths’ streamlined fit means you'll perform and look good whether you’re out on the water or about town.
Plus, they’ll last: We eliminated self-destructive velcro and corrosive metal zippers, opting for recycled YKK plastic zippers and design solutions instead.
Performance
We've had some of the world’s best ocean athletes test these in the most rigorous conditions on the planet to ensure they aren't lacking anything in function.
Thanks to NanoSphere, these shorts repel water, keeping the shorts both drier and cleaner for longer.
Versatility
Perfect for: Surfing, stand-up paddle boarding, foiling, sailing, boating, kite surfing, kayaking, windsurfing, canoeing, general fitness and everyday life.Â
Plus, they're available in two lengths : Standard Length and Shorter Length (2 inches less).
