SEA + LAND

VOLLEY SHORT

The swim-to-street original. Lightweight, quick-drying Volley fabric with 4-way stretch and a mesh pocket lining that drains fast, so a swim doesn't end the day. Garment-dyed in small batches for a washed, lived-in look. Inseam: 5.5" or 7".

LAND

VOLLEY LAND SHORT

Built for the days that stay dry. The same relaxed fit and easy, lived-in feel, with high-flex 4-way stretch, oversized front patch pockets, and secure back pockets that carry more without the bulk. Pre-washed, so it's broken in out of the box. Inseam: 5.5".

FAQs

The Volley Short is the swim-to-street hybrid. Mesh-lined pockets drain and dry fast, so you can get in the water and keep the day going. The Volley Land Short keeps the same relaxed fit and 4-way stretch but is built for dry days, with roomier pockets that carry more.

If your day might end in the water, go Volley Short.

It isn't built for it. There's no mesh lining, so the pockets hold water instead of draining. For swim days, grab the Volley Short.

5.5" sits above the knee and is our most popular length. 7" sits closer to the knee if you want more coverage.

The Volley Short comes in both. The Volley Land Short comes in 5.5" only.

Both are a relaxed fit: roomier through the thigh, straight through the leg, with a generous leg opening. The elastic waistband and drawstring handle the rest, so order your usual size.
