These are awesome!!

Bought all colorways and I absolutely love them.
They are very well made, and the added elastic in the back of the waist is perfect for when you gain a few pounds.
Very comparable to higher brands.
10/10 recommended.

A little misleading

The pics on the website show it as a pretty vibrant blue but the ones I received look like they've been washed a hundred times and faded.

Also size was a little smaller than the size chart said.

Thanks for your review, Cody! Sorry to hear that you are having an issue with your item. This is not the typical Bearbottom experience! Please contact us at sales@bearbottomclothing.com, and we'd be happy to find a solution!

A Summer Essential

If you find yourself hiking or moving back and forth between water often; these board shorts will be an essential for you. While hiking the Yosemite, I found that I could hike through a stream and wade in water, but have no concerns of long-lasting wet fabric as the board shorts dried up relatively quickly in the sun!

Caught two pair on sale for the summer

Caught two pairs on sale for the summer. Can’t beat $15 for quality board shorts. Comfortable in and out of the water.

Very good

Fit was great

Comfortable and stylish enough to wear as regular shorts.

Better than expected

So I’ve had the swim shorts there great, love when they are $15 bucks haha. I would get more at that price, but they are definitely very comfortable and fit well, I haven’t water tested them yet. But for a sweet pair of shorts for bopping around town. These are killer.

Very nice good quality

Beautiful Brand

Class & quality. My bottoms are fitted strictly with Bear Bottoms.

Small sized large

Just a tad too small knew you only had large. My son is thin and lanky.

Great Suit

They fit comfortably and I loved how quickly they dried when I got out of the water. Will be buying again

Shorts

Fit well and comfortable at a good price

Hawaii Tested

Super cool fabric blend with some cotton softness and great stretch, quick drying. Very comfy waist band, living in these from couch, gym, pool, beach. M perfect fit for athletic size 31, 180lb, 6’. Please keep making these, they are literally the short for Hawaii life! Look shorter and slimmer than the pics which is preferred. Would love to see some solid colors added too.

Great Value

Well made, stylish and great fit

Board Short

Awesome Shorts

Awesome shorts. I got compliments on them the first time I wore them out. Great fit and style.

Great Quality and Comfort

Haven't worn but look quality and as advertised. Sizing seems accurate maybe a little snug.

Shorts

Perfect for the beach! Great material, great fit and good quality

Board Short

Good product

Good product

Really cute distressed pattern, just not a huge fan of the elastic in the back. Looks kinda sloppy from behind & wish they were more form-fitting. But still, cute enough for running errands or beach day, dries pretty quickly etc, & matches with alot of solid tanks & tees easily 👍🏻

Swim shorts

Shorts were as advertised. Perfect length and waist size.

Great fit, great price

Palm boardshorts are awesome

I'm in need of more of these boardshorts. Length and fit are perfect, and they are so much more comfortable than other boardshorts I have

Comfort

Have enjoyed these even around the house as lounge shorts, will enjoy these for the summer

The Best Board Shorts I've Ever Seen

Board shorts are typically baggy, long, and unattractive overall. These are a game changer. Picked them up for a vacation in St. John. When I scuba dived they dried quick, and when I hiked a mountain they also dried quick. Can't beat em.

Great board shorts!

The 4 pairs of board shorts are well made, comfy and stylish.

Great Pants

The corduroy pants I selected fit very well and no saggy bottom. I didn’t want to take them off. I decided to buy another pair. I can be casual and look dressed up too. Thanks for a great product.

Very comfy

Fit as expected

Comfort is key. Glad you like them, Brandon. Thanks for the review!

Great fit
