## Description

The Tormenter Waterman is the original “Hybrid” Short. These were designed from the start by a lifelong waterman who is a fanatic in Surfing and Fishing. These came about as the designer was so tired of finishing a surf session and then heading to the grocery store with absolutely no place to put his: Wallet, Cell phone, and keys! The five purpose designed pockets give you the versatility you want and need. The Waterman is the perfect combination of fit, form, and function and will perform the job needed as Fishing Shorts, Dress Shorts, Cargo Shorts, Surf Shorts, and Dive Gear. Made of rugged microfiber with Triple Stitched seams, upgraded Velcro, and a sturdy waistband. The extremely attractive & edgy Embroidered logo make these shorts the most popular short produced by Tormenter. The Waterman is truly a “Boat to Bar” quality apparel piece and will prove to be the most versatile board shorts you will ever own.

Review: Favorite trunks - I used them for swimming 4 days straight in Mexico in the pool and ocean. I love the fit, length, and design. There is no liner and I like it that way. When swimming in the ocean I always wear tight speedo shorts underneath so I don’t get chaffing on my legs. Saltwater does that to me. For the pool it’s fine without the base layer as long as you don’t mind going commando. Haven’t used for fishing yet but looking forward to wearing in the kayak and using the pliers pocket while standing up. Love all the pockets. Plenty of room for wallet, keys, phone, etc while walking around. One picture shows how the material shrunk and embroidery did not. Mine have had no shrinking at all. I also didn’t put it in the dryer after washing. It’s swimsuit type material so it line dries pretty quickly.
Review: Great shorts - These shorts are awesome just for the beach busy double for fishing has 1 hard inner pocket for tools and a flip out pocket small one for well small stuff lol definitely buy these

These shorts are awesome just for the beach busy double for fishing has 1 hard inner pocket for tools and a flip out pocket small one for well small stuff lol definitely buy these

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Fit was spot on! size 34
*by D***R on March 28, 2019*

I'm hard to fit- I am wide shouldered and short, with large thighs and calves. What a catch... A kilt fits perfectly; so do these board shorts. E commerce for cloths presents a risk-benefit challenge; I'm so happy with the way these fit. They are at the knee, and spot on at a 34" waist. The color (grey) is rich and saturated. The design is stylish and fun. The material feels great and I imagine would dry quickly. I have not worn them in the water yet...but it's 'gonna happen. Theses are already easily one of my favorite all-time board shorts. Proud to wear 'em, worth the $$$! TBD: No zipper, instead there's Velcro. Not sure how the hook/loop material will hold up to abuse (think seaweed, or jellyfish) and fading in the sun/ocean- pool is a given Regards, Dustin
