Florence Marine X Hydratight Short - Men´s

Hydratight Short delivers chafe-free compression and sun protection for long water sessions

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I use these under boardshorts when I’m surfing or paddling all day—they completely eliminate chafing, and the UPF 50+ makes a big difference. They feel supportive without being too tight. Just a heads-up: the silver pair gets sheer when wet, so layer it up."

Long days in and on the water call for gear that protects, supports, and stays comfortable no matter how hard we push. The Florence Marine X Hydratight Short is built with a light compression fit to reduce chafing and offer just the right amount of support for endurance surf, paddle, or training sessions. Whether layered under boardshorts or worn alone (black only), it delivers consistent performance across high-output water missions.

Made from recycled nylon with 4-way stretch, the Hydratight Short moves with us while offering UPF 50+ sun protection in exposed conditions. Flatlock stitching keeps seams smooth and low-profile, reducing irritation during repetitive motion. Lightweight, quick-drying, and built to disappear when you´re in your zone, this short is your in-water second skin.
