The Surf Shield Series was developed to protect watersport athletes from sharp fins, foils, and reefs — without sacrificing comfort or performance. Made from cut-resistant materials and tested to FIS-DITF standards, these unisex boardshorts offer Level 4 (out of 5) protection. They serve as a low-profile but highly effective barrier against cuts and abrasions. The Boardshorts Surf Shield 20" feature a slightly snugger fit for better coverage, while the adjustable waistband ensures a secure and customized fit. A zippered back pocket keeps your essentials safe, and integrated UV protection offers added defense — in and out of the water. This ION wetsuit is a top choice for kitesurfing, wing foiling, surfing and paddleboarding.
