About Us

Urchin was born in the water, not the showroom. It exists because too many boardshorts were built for trends instead of surf—thin on purpose, heavy on logos, and done after a season. Urchin stands for something more considered: durability, function, and timeless design made for life in and out of the water.

The focus has always been on longevity and feel. Boardshorts engineered to move freely, wear in—not out—and remain relevant beyond a single season. Every element is considered, refined, and built for daily use in demanding environments.

This isn’t fast fashion for the ocean. It’s gear you rely on. Built with intention, refined through use, and worn by people who value quality over noise—on land and in the water.
