Learn MoreI can't say enough about these Board Shorts. They are so comfortable, and and fit just right! There is nothing to not like about these! There are lots of awesome little attention to details, and have no problem wearing these going from Board to knocking around town or the home. Thank you for the BEST!
This is truly the best sun suit I have ever had. I only wore it today when I first got it. But I went paddle boarding, wore it for zoom meetings, and walked my dog. Everything was comfortable in the foggy weather. I felt like I was wearing a superhero cape, it is that amazing. I am hoping it lasts and I am already looking at new styles. I am a new fan, at 44 years old, an active human, I feel like I’m a gymnast again and can do anything. I ordered a small and fits perfectly. Can’t wait to get another one!
I am just ordering my 7th pair of leggings and 3rd tank top!! I hike in them, yoga in them, swim in them, lounge in them, anything in them!! Best ever and with over 45 years of recreating I can truly say these are the best!!! Oh and the pockets!!! OMG!!!
I am in love with these leggings, and are my new go-to. Not only are they super cute, but they are perfect for every activity (running, yoga, swimming, paddle boarding, lounging). The are super comfortable, fit perfectly, stay in place, and are not see-through (which I was worried about with the color). I kept mine long, but I really appreciate being able to customize the length. The color was spot on, and they look amazing. These were my first pair of Waterlust leggings, and I can't wait to order another. My cat even loves them :)
I love these shorts! I got them to be a swimsuit bottom and I finally got to wear them! I went tubing in the top and shorts combo and it was perfect! I love that I don’t have to worry about my bathing suit coming off or being uncomfortable! Plus the high waisted cut of these shorts makes them very flattering! Bonus! My phone even fits in the pockets(that’s probably going to get me in trouble some day)! Now I just need waterlust to make a matching sun mask and scrunchi in this patter! I am 5’3” and 116lbs with a 26” waist and the XS is a perfect fit!
Aside from the obvious benefit of buying clothes that have a positive impact from the environment, these shorts are PERFECT for me. I’m fairly active and live on an island where rainy runs or sunny swims are daily.
I am 5’8” and 130lbs generally a size 4 or 27-28 pant And bought a size STRONG.
I have a fairly weak upper body as you can tell but I have THIGHS AND A BOOTY THAT DOESNT QUIT. I have ripped many MANY A jean or shorts in my day. These are flexible comfortable and don’t ride up. AND ... drumroll... THEY HAVE TWOOO FUNCTIONAL POCKETS. They’re all around great. They cover all of my butt and an inch or two more which is nice when walking my dog around the neighborhood kids. You won’t regret this solid purchase investment.
I love my sun suit! It is comfortable, protects me from the sun, and also provides a bit of insulation when diving! The abalone print is stunning and I am happy some of the proceeds go towards restoration. I now have 4 items from Waterlust and I will continue to buy more!
I love these leggings! By far the best ones I own. They fit like a second skin and stay in place during workout. They are not see through (I personally have had difficulties finding leggings that are not see through) and one can decide how long or short the leggings will be. I didn’t cut them at all because I like them very long which, as a relatively tall person (5’10), is hard to find!
I like the idea behind the concept of the company (I didn’t even know that there are dolphins with spots) and the packaging was eco-friendly (no plastic)! Overall, very happy and will get my second one soon :)
8 Month usage update: The drawstring closure kicks butt!! Like so many things, the devil is in the details, and the drawstrings on the board shorts have the details right. We are live aboard sailors and I have worn these shorts for 4-5 days a week, in the Caribbean sun and saltwater, and they have proven durable and tough, extremely comfortable and easy to use. And I never thought I would describe a board short as easy to use, but after you have tried a drawstring system that works so effectively, you realize how crappy your old shorts were. The middle of the drawstring is stitched down so it never becomes asymmetrical and it has just the right amount of friction so the knots never come undone. And the eyelets which have been doused in saltwater maybe 500 times, are not corroded. Truely a great short and is comfortable and can keep up with your active lifestyle.
I had the hardest time deciding between the three prints and I am so pleased that I chose the abalone print. It is absolutely stunning in person. This sun suit highly exceeded my expectations and I highly recommend it. For me it not only provided protection from the sun but also kept me warm. The suit is thick but not too thick to the point it restricts movements, it provides the perfect amount of extra body heat needed while being extremely flexable, I was comfortable and warm for hours on our free dives. Also the zipper works effortlessly, I had no issues getting myself suited up! I cannot wait to see what other prints become available, 🤞🏻 fingers crossed for mermaid camo 🧜🏻♀️ & tiger shark 🦈 sun suits. Also wanted to give a special shout out to the staff at Waterlust, they have amazing customer service and went out of there way to make sure I would receive my order in time for my trip💙🦈
I'm picky about my shorts and I love my new whale shark uniform shorts. They are true to size, well made, they tell a good story and look cool. Thanks, Waterlust, for creating high-quality apparel, stories, lessons, videos and images, all of which increase our collective connection with the ocean.
Bought these for my husband as a birthday present and he basically refuses to wear any other board shorts now. I asked him what his thoughts were and he said, "these are 10/10, awesome!" He especially liked the quality of the closure and says it is the best he has worn. He asked to mention that he is on the lookout for sea turtle shorts! Will be back!
Absolutely LOVE my tiger shark leggings!! I have the whaleshark, sea turtle and abalone versions as well and rotate them. Not only are these fantastic scuba/snorkel leggings, they are also durable and functional work gear! Myself and many of my friends work in the field of aquatic animal medicine and wear these leggings routinely! These stand up to sun, sweat, mud and sand, and even protect you from jellyfish stings! Still on my first pair after several years of use and no signs of wearing out yet. Waterlust has a great mission and I am happy to rock these leggings knowing that they represent a passionate, progressive, and educated company. Will be a loyal customer for years to come....if these ever wear out :)

Minimizing negative impact on the environment drives all of our decision making. If we can't make it responsibly, we won't make it at all. Until we find a way.
