Board Shorts For Women Online In Singapore
One of the best things about living in Singapore is the perennially good weather. That, and the easily accessibly beaches. As such, there is always reason for beachwear. Namely, board shorts.
Board shorts, which were originally known as surf trunks or swim shorts, started out as a style of men's beachwear. It was only until recent years that designs for women were created too. These shorts were originally meant for aquatic sports, specifically for surfing, but soon became a popular form of beach wear and, here in Singapore, casual wear. Also sometimes called "boardies" in Australia, and "baggies" in South Africa, board shorts grew in popularity particularly in North America, where the skater punk fashion trend rose in the nineties.
Women's Board Shorts - Durable & Lightweight
Board shorts for women are designed to be quick-drying, and are generally made from strong and smooth polyester or nylon material. They are durable and hold up to wear from contact with a surfboard, yet are comfortable and light-weight. They are well-adapted to use in various active watersports. Typically longer than many shorts or form-fitting speedo styles of swimwear, they often they have a loose or baggy appearance that fit into the grunge trend of the nineties and early noughties. But even until now, celebrities like Selena Gomez and Hugh Jackman continue to laud the board shorts as a credible form of casual wear.
