Quiksilver Diamond Dobby Boardshort by Karen Day
Quicksilver's new Diamond Dobby boardshort infuses the latest in fabric technology with their classic design and quirky color schemes, making for a rash-free summer of fun and surf.
By using an embossed, diamond-patterned material, the Diamond Dobby technology decreases fabric to skin contact by 30 percent which eliminates chafing and rashes.
In addition, horizontal stretch and fabric memory keep the shorts in shape while adding ultimate comfort—ideal for challenging waves from the North Shore to the Gold Coast.
The trunks even shine out of the water; the weightless material dries twice as fast as the average boardshort.
Available for purchase from the Quicksilver website, Diamond Bobbies run $60.

Surf Montréal
A city usually associated with frosty beer and weather, Montréal shows off their summer side with a surf spot on the St. Lawrence River. Hidden behind the prestigious Habitat 67—a Moshe Safdie apartment building infamous for its Expo 67 debut and infinite occupancy waiting list—the location may sound tame. One look at the wetsuit-clad surfers navigating the surf proves that the river's current can...

Mover Skiwear
Recently coming across the smart skiwear made by Mover, I realized how completely deprived I was of snow this season—which is what's great about the brand. Their classically chic designs work just as well in city streets as they do on alpine slopes, making for a perfect compromise. Pairing an old-school aesthetic with futuristic techniques, Swedish (though Switzerland-based) label takes wool—one of the oldest...

Swrve Urban Cycling Apparel

To fill the void of bicycle apparel that's as stylish as it is utilitarian comes swrve, a small Los Angeles-based company. Their collection of reasonably-priced, American-made clothing has everything from classic wool riding caps to light-weight, water-repellent riding knickers—all constructed with a discerning eye for a contemporary aesthetic.

Linden Agave Singlefin Surfboard
Surfing, more than many other sports, is both more closely connected to and heavily dependent on the health of the planet, yet the industry's been slow to get away from the use of toxic and harmful materials in boards. This is mostly due to the fact that untraditional materials just don't perform as well. A great eco-friendly alternative without compromising board performance is Gary...
