Towel Changes: A Thing of the Past

The Watermen's SoulBeing in and out of the water is a basic necessity of the watermen lifestyle. Although, we are most comfortable when we are in the water it is always nice to get out of your wet gear at the end of your long, salty session. Unless, you just surfed Black’s Beach and stripped down to your birthday suit, the towel change is something you have wrestled with when trying to get changed into your dry clothes. The Original Watermen boarshort liner  is our solution to making the towel change a thing of the past.

The Watermen compression shorts for men provides you with so many benefits that it is easy to overlook the fact that it makes life so much easier when you get out of the water and need to change. The Watermen Shorts are boardshort liner that can be worn under your wetsuit, boardshort, or even on their own. They are rapid drying which allows you to stay comfortable and dry for extended sessions.

Imagine pulling up to a perfect a-framing, head high glassy wave. Everyone jumps out of the car on red alert, scrambling to throw on their wetsuits and grab the first wave before the masses find out the waves are firing. The froth levels are high and the boys are fighting over the one towel you all brought to share. You smirk to yourself because you have your watermen shorts on already and know you’ll be the first to claim a wave. You seamlessly slip into your wetsuit, grab your board, and paddle out the back. After your first perfect wave, you look into the shore and see that your buddies are finally getting their act together after their towel wrangle and are finally joining you in the surf.

3 Reasons Why You Should Be Wearing Original Watermen’s ‘Watermen Short’

Watermen Short

It’s hard to figure out what people are sporting under their board shorts, after all, most of the time it is nothing. Asking about someone’s underwear is not a typical conversation point. That’s why we are here to help. We know what to wear; we’ve been there, done it, tried it all. The Original Watermen Watermen Short has you covered with comfort and style. This boardshort liner is kind of a cross between a compression short and swim jammers; specially-designed for surfers, watermen and everything in between. Here’s why you should be wearing this boardshort liner, the Watermen Short:

1. RASH-FREE GUARANTEE

There is nothing worse than the Sumo Wrestler walk of shame. As Watermen, we stay salty, which is a good thing… most of the time. Those other times can wreak havoc on our barnacles. The Original Watermen boardshort liner comes to the rescue. Long distance swimmers, runners, triathletes and lifeguards asked us for functional water shorts that minimize rashes and drag resistance caused by typical men’s boardshorts. The lifeguards reveled at the rash free properties when running in wet boardshorts, and the chafe resistance when out on long patrols on the paddle board or even just surfing on their time off. “You guys really have something big on your hands! Finally, compression shorts that can be worn all day at work under your board shorts and won’t give you those pesky rashes you get from wet boardies.” – Court Carroll, San Diego Lifeguard. The Watermen Short provides a comfortable protective layer right where you need it most.

During this past massive El Niño winter we sent out some of our Watermen Short board short liners to our team. The likes of whom are avid; freedivers, spearfishermen, high-altitude trail runners, mountaineers, kayakers, paddle boarders, triathletes, and a core group of elite watermen and lifeguards from around the globe. Our elite team of athletes were asked to provide the most critical feedback on the performance of the boardshort liners. We not only tested these bad boys in the harsh environments at sea level, but we put them to the test hundreds of feet below the ocean’s surface. These boardshort liners were put to use in all conditions and applications we could dream imaginable and the results were astounding.

The big wave surfers and open-ocean paddlers in Hawaii and Northern California reveled on the freedom from rashes caused by normal board shorts, but also enlightened us with an entirely new feature, warmth. Watermen Short board short liners provided our guys and girls with an extra layer of warmth in those not so toasty of Hawaiian days and nights, and gave the bearded guys in Northern California ease getting into a wet 5 mil wetsuit when the day called for a triple session. The scientific S.C.U.B.A divers we worked with on the Mendocino Coast and Southern California’s Catalina Island also rejoiced in the ease of changing in and out of wetsuits when wearing the boardshort liners, but also in the extra amount of warmth provided in that critical zone.

Long distance swimmers, runners, triathletes, and lifeguards asked us for a functional water short that minimizes rashes and drag resistance. So we delivered these high-performance board short liners! The Watermen Shorts proved to allow dynamic and efficient transitions when tested by triathletes in the different legs of the race.

The lifeguards reveled at the rash free properties when running in wet boardshorts, and the chafe resistance when out on long patrols on the paddleboard or just surfing on the soft-top. The lifeguards and surfers applauded these liners for their boardshorts.

“You guys really have something big on your hands! Finally, compression shorts that can be worn all day at work under your boardshorts and won’t give you those pesky rashes you get from wet boardies.” – Court Carroll, San Diego Lifeguard

The team’s feedback on the first edition Watermen Shorts board short liners provided us with the fine-tuning changes we needed to introduce the second edition ready for the public.

We at Original Watermen are proud to introduce the Watermen Short for water enthusiasts everywhere. The applications and functionality with the Watermen Short boardshort liners have shown to be endless.
