I'm on a health journey everyone, and I've recently have downsized to a 36" waist and when I recently purchased boardshorts from Jetty, I was pleasantly surprised that they were a little large! They fit, but I was worried about catching some gnar shorebreak and putting on a show...if you know what I mean. Therefore, I returned them for a size 34. They didn't have the style that I initially ordered, so I went with the Atlantic Boardshort, and let me tell you...I'm not disappointed. Not only was Jetty's customer service stellar, the return arrived promptly and the style is classic. I'm stoked.
