Hybrid Shorts
Hybrid Shorts for Both Jobs
One short, two lives. The hybrid moves from footpath to line-up without a wardrobe meeting, which makes it the most useful short in the range for anyone whose plans depend on the tide.
Everything here dries fast, sits clean and surfs far better than a walkshort has any right to. Fully committed surf days still belong to the boardshorts, and pure land days to the walkshorts. For everything in between, welcome home.

The hybrid short is for the day you refuse to plan. Dawn surf check. Maybe a paddle. Maybe a bakery. The Canyons, Cutlap Eco, El Cap and Fin Rope hybrids are walkshorts that moonlight as boardshorts: cut for land, happy in salt water, and back to respectable before you reach the car park. One pair of shorts, every version of the day.
How to Choose a Hybrid Short
- Length: The range runs 17.5" to 19.5". Shorter rides cleaner in the water; the 19.5" Fin Rope brings more coverage for the land-heavy days.
- If you will definitely surf: Be honest with yourself and go to the boardshorts. A hybrid is brilliant. A boardshort is purpose-built.
- If you might surf: This is your collection. That is the entire premise of the category, and we stand by it.
Rounding Out the Kit
Dry-land loyalists should look at the full walkshorts range, and comfort-first operators get a whole elastic waist collection. If the water keeps winning, the Eco-lastics are elastic-waist boardshorts built on upcycled coconut fibre and recycled polyester. Throw on a tee and you are done dressing. Sizing questions answer themselves in the Size Guide.
