Hightide Boardshort 2N1: Black

The built-in Pro Agua X liner is the reason I'm buying a second pair — no chafing after a two-hour paddle, which I did not expect from a 2N1. The outer dries fast enough that I wore them straight from the water to lunch without feeling soggy.

Wore these for a full day of surfing and they dried out before I even left the beach. The four-way stretch outer short never once felt restricting when I was popping up on the board.

The inner Pro Agua X liner is the standout — it's supportive without ever feeling like you're wearing a second pair of shorts. I've done two beach runs and a kayak trip in these and the four-way stretch lets me move freely with zero chafing.
