In the 1950s Katin co-founder, Walter Katin sat at his sewing machine and made the very first pair of Katin trunks - the Waterman Trunk. Since its inception, the iconic silhouette remains in our trunk collection and pays homage to Walter Katin and his unparalleled craft. The Waterman Trunk has since led the way as America's first surf trunk.

Boardies for any occasion

"Best boardshorts on the market. Can’t get out of these boardshorts. I have both the 17” and the 20”, I love both! I love how quickly they dry and how comfortable they are. The Velcro is so much better than the buttons. Fits true to size!"

Been looking for years for canvas boradshort

"Growing up in the 80's my dad was a big surfer and I remember he had these awsome canvas surf shorts. We moved to the midwest and he gave them to me. I wore these everyday till they fell apart. I have been looking for a canvas type boardshort. When they arived, I was blown away by the quality and fit. These are my goto shorts and new brand. I love them, and cant wait for other colors to come back in stock."
