Story & heritage
On the live Hurley store, Phantom Naturals appears as its own named men's collection. The Tailgate 18-inch trunk is the clearest expression of that lane: the official copy says it combines throwback style with modern tech, so the brief itself becomes the bridge between vintage surf graphics and current performance fabric.
That mix matters for Hurley because the brand no longer sells only plain competition trunks. Naturals pieces like Tailgate keep the surf category recognizable while moving the visual language closer to washed, retro weekend wear.
Materials & craft
The product page cites Phantom Naturals fabric with a DWR coating and a stretchy blend that includes recycled polyester. Hurley also calls out stretch taping, a straight leg, a 7-inch inseam, an 18-inch outseam, and a back pocket with Velcro and grosgrain pull.
How to choose & style
Tailgate is for the customer who wants Hurley to feel more vintage than athletic. The espresso print is easier to wear than bright neon surf trunks, especially with cream tees, faded tanks, and simple slides.
