Don’t let their insanely old school site scare you away. Birdwell Beach Britches have been offering fashionable and high-quality American-made board shorts in a variety of styles since 1961. Though not short shorts, their coveted Classic Board Shorts ($42 – $57) are worn way above the knees which also require a certain attitude to pull it off. Birdwell Beach Britches’ nylon boardies are lined, fitted, comfortable and made of fast-drying Surfnyl material.
