The Story Behind the Boardies

Inspired by our family trip to Costa Rica and years of surf trips that made us fall in love with the Pura Vida lifestyle, our Costa Rica Retro Boardies are built for kids who don’t slow down — from beach mornings to boat days, cannonballs, wipeouts, and chasing sunsets barefoot.

These aren’t your average kids swim trunks.

Made with true retro boardshort construction, they feature a velcro waistband, stretch front panel, and front tie closure for a secure fit that actually stays put through waves, wipeouts, and nonstop summer chaos.

Built-in waist adjusters let you dial in the fit, so they stay comfy, secure, and still have that laid-back boardie look.

Finished with our custom Costa Rica-inspired side panel, signature neon orange contrast trim, and 3 custom silicone patches, every detail was designed to feel like collectible surf gear — the kind of boardies that get worn hard, handed down, and remembered years later.

The same way people still hold onto their vintage Rip Curl and Billabong boardies — these were built to become those shorts.

Packed with care from our small SoCal garage and growing because of families like yours. Thanks for being here with us.

Small-Batch Drops

We’re a small brand, not fast fashion. Our pieces are made with intention — with hand-drawn, one-of-a-kind designs instead of trend-chasing graphics. Built for wild kids, long days outside, and all the adventures they put their clothes through.

Built for Outside Kids

I made these for the kids who are always sandy, sticky, climbing something, chasing waves, or asking for “one more run.” Soft, easy styles for real childhood — the messy, wild, outside kind.
