Buying help

Boardshorts or volley shorts?

Boardshorts are the water-focused choice. Volley shorts are usually easier for casual wear, travel and quick beach changes.

What length should I choose?

Shorter lengths feel easier and more casual. Longer lengths add coverage. Check product details such as 18 inch, 19 inch or brand fit notes.

Do I need stretch fabric?

Stretch helps with paddling, swimming, movement and comfort. It is useful if the shorts will be used in the water.

How do I choose waist size?

Use your usual short size and check whether the waistband is fixed or elastic. Elastic waists are more forgiving.

For boardshort sizing questions, check the brand fit and contact the Thornbury shop if you are between sizes.
