A Surf Garment We’re Proud Of: The Stab x Quiksilver Trunks

Good for yoga, martial arts, and definitely helps freedom in the surf.

Stab believes that you should be the progression you want to see. But, we also believe that to do something well, you must collaborate with the best in biz. So when we decided to make a pair of trunks for the Australian summer, Quiksilver was an easy choice to partner with – especially once we caught wind of their new Diamond Deluxe fabric (this is the first time it’s been used in a pair of boardshorts).

Aside from the premium tech, we also fashioned some side panels with a featherlight neoprene (0.3mm). Stab doesn’t usually enjoy self congratulating, but we’re insanely proud of these. They stretch (good for yoga, martial arts, and definitely helps freedom in the surf), they dry quick (water beads as opposed to being absorbed – chlorine or salt, Hollywood or Cloudbreak), they boast a neo fly (if there’s one place you don’t need a rash, this is it – we took our time here), and they’re limited (only 500 pairs produced in the world). Go snatch!

Head here if you missed Mongrel Mike, featuring Mikey Wright and said trunks in all their glory.

Otherwise, this way to see them a little closer (or take ownership).
