Story & heritage
The Waterman Strands sits inside Quiksilver’s Waterman line, which the brand describes as premium sportswear rooted in boardriding heritage. That gives the short a slightly more technical, adventure-ready read than a standard beach short.
It is the kind of piece that makes sense for a surf brand in motion: easier to wear on land, still clearly designed with water in mind.
Materials & craft
The product page describes SURFSILK woven fabric made from 88% recycled polyester and 12% elastane at 170 gsm. It also lists a regular fit, 19-inch outseam, a half-elastic waistband with button closure, and a zippered back pocket.
The quick-dry, salt-resistant fabric story keeps the Waterman short firmly in Quiksilver’s performance lane.
