A Complete Range of Men’s Bottoms
This collection includes all core bottom styles, making it the go-to destination for Golden Breed men’s bottoms. From performance boardshorts to relaxed walkshorts and comfortable pants, each piece is designed with wearability in mind.
It’s a complete lineup built to suit both the water and everyday wear.
Boardshorts Built for the Water
Golden Breed boardshorts are designed for movement and durability, using lightweight, quick-drying fabrics that perform in and out of the surf. They’re built for long days in the water, offering comfort and flexibility.
Walkshorts and Cord Shorts for Everyday Wear
Styles like Floyd walkshorts and El Solito and El Shorto bring a more relaxed, everyday feel. Made from soft cotton corduroy, they offer comfort and versatility across different settings.
These are easy-to-wear pieces that can be styled for both casual and slightly more refined looks.
Pants for Versatility
Golden Breed men’s pants add another layer of versatility to the collection. Designed with relaxed fits and durable fabrics, they provide an option for cooler days and everyday wear beyond shorts.
Designed for Comfort and Movement
Across every style, comfort is a priority. Lightweight fabrics, relaxed fits and durable construction ensure each piece is built for repeat wear.
Whether you're in the water or on land, these are bottoms designed to move with you.
Easy to Style Across the Range
Golden Breed men’s bottoms are designed to pair effortlessly with the rest of the range. Wear them with men’s t-shirts or muscle tanks for warmer days, or style with men’s shirts and hoodies and sweats for cooler conditions.

Men's Bottoms FAQs
What types of men's bottoms does Golden Breed sell?
Golden Breed's men's bottoms range covers boardshorts for the water, walkshorts and cord shorts for everyday wear, and pants for cooler days. Boardshorts are built for surfing and swimming, while the walkshorts, cord shorts and pants are casual land-based styles, so the range spans both beach and everyday dressing.
What's the difference between boardshorts and walkshorts?
Boardshorts are designed for the water, made from lightweight quick-drying fabric so they're comfortable for surfing and swimming, while walkshorts are casual everyday shorts, usually in cotton or corduroy, that aren't made for swimming. Choose boardshorts for the surf and beach, and walkshorts when you want a relaxed short for land. Golden Breed's Floyd, El Solito and El Shorto are walkshort styles, while the boardie range is built for the water.
What is a cord short?
A cord short is a short made from corduroy, a soft, ribbed, textured cotton fabric with a vintage look. Golden Breed's Floyd, Hercules and Panama cord shorts use this fabric for a relaxed, retro everyday short that's warmer and more textured than a standard cotton short.
Are Golden Breed boardshorts quick-drying?
Golden Breed boardshorts are made from lightweight quick-drying fabric so they're comfortable both in and out of the water and don't stay heavy or wet after a surf. This makes them practical for moving from the water to the beach without changing.
What's the difference between El Solito and El Shorto Walkshorts?
The only real difference between the El Solito and El Shorto walkshorts is the length: the El Shorto is the shorter style with an 18.5cm inseam that sits above the knee, while the El Solito is 10cm longer with a 28.5cm inseam that sits on or around the knee. Everything else is the same - both are relaxed-fit walkshorts in chunky cotton cord, with an elastic waist, internal drawcord, and side and back pockets. Choose the El Shorto for a shorter, above-the-knee look and the El Solito for more leg coverage.
What's the difference between an elastic waist and a structured waist?
An elastic waist uses a stretch waistband (with an internal drawcord) that pulls on and adjusts for a relaxed, forgiving fit, while a structured waist has a fixed waistband that fastens for a more tailored, secure fit. On Golden Breed walkshorts, a structured waist means a button and zip fly; on boardshorts, it means the classic boardshort tie waist. Elastic waists prioritise easy comfort, while structured waists give a sharper, more locked-in fit.
