I got an email from surf stitch advising me of Hurley's new $200 board shorts. It wouldn't surprise me if the big brands tried to flog boardies off for $100, but $200

I had to check our exchange rate to see if our dollar had dropped down to the value of the Indonesian Rupiah or something. $200....$200 f@rking $$$$$$ for boardies WTF & they look total sh1t

I tell ya what if they gave you any type of rash on the nads you would be demanding back more than just a refund.

If anyone is ever in Bali head to the factory outlet store on Sunset and you can pick up a set of Hurley super flexi ones for between $20 and $40 most of the time.

patagonia shorts are awesome as well...usually less the $90 and sometimes on sale for half that...plus all Patagonia stuff is part of there worn wear program so if you rip them or loose a button you can take it in and they will fix it up...win win

Well, im pretty sure your not going to notice much difference between a $80.00 pair of boardies and $200.00 buck pair.Those that think theres a difference are jsut trying to justify the fact they've spent $200.00 on a pair of boardies. This is unless of course they cure Herpes or help you breathe under water, then they are probably well worth the money?

Yep I'm happy with my $30 quicky flex material boardies & with the change from $200 I have the 75% towards a good quality 2x3 steamer wettie or 1/2 the money for a new board

I have one of the 3/2 wetties and if they are anything to go by the boardies should be pretty good for the price !

Maybe their thinking is that $200 board shorts will make $80 board shorts seem cheap
