Outerknown Apex Evolution Trunk By Kelly - Men's Java Camo Block, 34

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: “These trunks feel ridiculously dialed—light, flexible, and they stay put no matter how hard you’re paddling. The waistband and drawcord setup is one of the best I’ve used, and the welded seams are smooth with zero chafing. Add the recycled NetPlus fabric, and they become an easy go-to for long surf sessions.” We love how the Apex Evolution Trunk by Kelly brings pro-grade surf performance into a sustainably built design. Developed over years of refinement and shaped by Kelly Slater’s own demands, these trunks feature a dialed-in waistband and no-slip drawcord that stay secure during long paddle-outs and challenging sets. The NetPlus® recycled nylon fabric—crafted from reclaimed fishing nets—adds durability and structure while keeping movement light and fluid. Performance touches elevate every detail: pitched forward side seams with vents for easier mobility on the board, soft-touch panels at high-friction zones, and reinforced ultrasonic-welded seams to keep rubbing and irritation at bay. The signature back pocket includes drainage holes—one for each of Kelly’s 11 world titles—and a key loop for the essentials. Designed to surf hard and recover fast, these trunks balance sustainability, structure, and top-tier comfort every time we hit the water.
