The Ua Huka Story

Ua Huka by HIC is a limited-edition board shorts print inspired by the traditional designs of Tahiti. Bold, vibrant, and deeply rooted in island culture, these shorts are crafted for surfers who want to look stylish while demanding performance from their gear. With exclusive Tahitian-inspired patterns featuring Marquesan motifs and floral designs, no two runs are alike — making every pair a collector's piece.

Perfect For

Surfing • Swimming • Kayaking • Skateboarding • Beach Volleyball • Everyday Beach Wear

Why HIC Stands Out

Most board shorts use 4-way stretch fabric. HIC's exclusive 8-Way Octo-Stretch technology doubles that flexibility, providing proven durability and comfort for the most demanding water and land activities.

Sizing Notes

HIC board shorts run large – the waist is larger than the sewn-on label size tag. Available in sizes 29–44. Contact us if you need sizing assistance.
