Maui Rippers are wildly underrated in the outdoor industry. Surfing, fishing, swimming, or just hanging out. These board shorts are super durable, triple stitching, but also comfortable!

Really cute print and vibrant colors and fits great- true to size

These are such a beautiful print. Can't wait to wear them in the summertime to the pool. They also fit well and seemed to be true to size. I ordered them a little big, because I feel like normally board shorts run small. These did not and I could've actually sized at my normal size. I got a light pink top to go with them and they're cute as ever. The fabric is nice quality, lightweight and soft. There is no liner in them and I actually like that. There is a zipper pocket on one side, which is fabulous for storing a key or something small. These were a great find!

Love these shorts, but the sizing can be off or run large.

Super cute, comfy and flattering. Great for the beach or whatever. I love them so much I bought 3 diff colors (black, navy, camo). The black shorts I received were wider than the navy shorts, although both are marked size 6. I exchanged the size 6 black shorts for a 4, perfect fit. Definitely recommend these shorts, once you find your correct size.

Order a size or two up

I like them, but wish I ordered two sizes up. I wear a 10 work pant and ordered this in a 12 and could really use the next size up. It’s ok. Motivation on my health journey to shed as I’m actively doing. Just letting folks know. I also carry most of my weight in hips and tummy though so take that for what it’s worth. I do live the length. That’s perfect. The stretch and give is great. I walked around and they don’t ride up even with thicker thighs.

Nice shorts for fuller coverage over swimsuit

These shorts worked great to wear over a normal swimsuit. The coverage was good for walking around and it was ok to put back on over a wet swimsuit as everything dries quickly. I also snorkeled in these a couple of days and found them to be good for that as well. Be advised, there is no panty inside these shorts. If you wear them without a swimsuit or underwear you may show more than you bargained for as you swim away.

Love th product but if ordering the purple order a larger size..

I love these shorts but as you can see the purple was manufactured to small I even tried ordering it a second time and it was the same thing but only the purple. I have it black and red in the same side size 10and bother were as expected.

The perfect women’s board shorts!

I have always had a hard time finding board shorts. Either you buy the men’s version and look dumpy but feel comfortable or you buy the women’s version (decidedly designed by men for men’s pleasure) and they’re so short your lady bits are in danger of hanging out. These babies fit well and looked good doing so, and I surfed comfortably all week long on my vacation. Will definitely be buying more color options! Pro tip: make sure the Velcro is fastened and tie the strings so they don’t get damaged in the wash.

Comfortable fit!

I read all the reviews, measured my own boardshorts to see how it compared to one review that posted measurements (very helpful!) and decided on the size 8. The fit is great and comfortable. I am petite but have big hips and thighs (usually wear size 6 pants/jeans in Old Navy or Gap) so I often have problems finding good fitting shorts and pants.Waist band: 16 inchesHip: 19 inchesLeg opening: 12 inches(Give or take a cm or 2)Something is up with my phone camera so the boardshorts are coming up bluish instead of black in the photo.Will definitely consider buying another pair.

My new favorite swim shorts

I absolutely love these shorts. I was looking for something that I could wear to swim, boat, walk, hike, and whatever else the day brought. These are perfect. The material dries very fast and has a nice amount of stretch without getting stretched out. We walked around Martha's Vineyard all day, jumped off the jaws bridge, and returned to sightseeing without missing a beat or having to change clothes. I highly recommend them.

Very Pleased!!

Reviews are very accurate about this product. Arrived quickly and is just as expected. Sizing can always be questionable but I ordered a size 8 (which in shorts is my normal size) but wear a size 10 comfortably in jeans. These shorts fit great, slightly snug in the butt but still comfortable and don't feel tight. Good leg opening size as well, for someone who has larger thighs. If you like it looser go up a size, but for the summer with a bathing suit the material and fit is awesome!
