Abalone Restoration 4 Inch Shorts
Like you, our shorts are amphibious, meaning they are equally at home underwater or on land. Whether you're running, biking, diving into a weekend project or the deep end of the pool, these versatile hip huggers will keep up.
Known for the psychedelic patterns found on their inner shells, abalone (sea snails) feature unique colors that are created by nacre, hexagonal platelets of aragonite also known commonly as “mother of pearl” and found on a variety of mollusks. Our print features the piercing blues of New Zealand’s Pāua, the Māori name given to three species Haliotis iris, Haliotis australis and Haliotis virginea. 5% of sales will be donated to Get Inspired, a non-profit organization dedicated to abalone restoration and education efforts in California.
