The Vissla Raditude 16.5″ boardshorts combine throwback style with high-performance materials, making them a staple for beach days and bomb drops alike. With a 16.5-inch outseam, these shorts sit above the knee for a vintage-inspired look and freer movement. The fabric is a 4-way stretch blend crafted from recycled polyester (Repreve) and coconut fibres (Cocotex®) – yes, coconut! – which means they’re light, quick-drying, and kinder to the planet. The Raditude features a fun all-over print with contrast solid waistband, plus a scalloped leg hem that nods to 1970s surf culture. They’ve got a fixed waist with a drawstring tie and a neo-fly (no velcro to snag) for comfort. A handy side pocket (complete with an internal key rope) is there to stash your keys or wax. Whether you’re getting tubed or just enjoying the Wanaka sun by the lake, these shorts deliver rad vibes and reliable performance.
