Troy Elmore—the surfer, designer, and shaper behind Elmore Surfboards—is a staple in today’s surf culture. Based in Costa Mesa, California, Troy creates hand-shaped surfboards that reinforce the roots of surfing, pushing the sport forward by injecting it with details from the past. With this idea in mind, Troy and Vans have come together for a head-to-toe collection that blends craftsmanship, comfort, and style.
Showcasing Troy’s unique taste, the Vans x Troy Elmore Ride Boardshort highlights a classic aesthetic with a solid navy colorway featuring a contrasting white drawcord at the waist and a subtle red and cream stripe down the left side leg. Although Troy only needs a pair of pants and a white t-shirt most days, this polyester boardshort meets his needs in the water with inspiration taken from the surf and hot rod racing culture of the 1950s and 60s.
Finished with a classic logo label at the left leg, the Troy Elmore Ride Boardshort blends Troy’s eye for design with a timeless look. Models is 6 feet tall and wearing a size 32.
