コレクション: Premium Surfboard Knit Bags and Socks – Hawaiian South Shore

A surfboard knit bag, often referred to as a board sock, is an essential piece of everyday surf gear. It’s designed to protect your surfboard from UV rays, scratches, sand, and wax buildup—without the weight of a traditional travel bag.

At Hawaiian South Shore, we created a knit surfboard sock that takes this concept further. With added protection layers, a breathable design, and wax-resistant coating, it’s built for serious surfers who want reliable, lightweight board protection that performs in real-world conditions.

Key Features at a Glance

• Triple-layer construction with ballistic nylon & foam
• Breathable holes for airflow—helps your board dry faster
• Wax-repellent interior coating
• Sturdy webbing for shape retention
• Washable design for easy maintenance
• Lightweight and easy to handle for everyday use
• Locally exclusive—only at Hawaiian South Shore

Triple-Layer Protection: Built to Last

Layer 1: Durable Outer Shell

Constructed with 1680D Ballistic Nylon, the same material used in police belts, motorcycle jackets, and rugged travel gear. This tough outer layer resists wear, friction, and UV exposure.

Layer 2: Impact Foam

We’ve sandwiched in a ¼-inch (6.4mm) foam layer, providing superior protection against pressure dings and minor impacts. It’s enough to cushion your board, but still slim enough to fit inside a larger board bag for travel.

Layer 3: Coated Interior

Our coated inner lining is designed to minimize wax sticking, making it easier to slide your board in and out. Plus, the breathable design helps release moisture and prevent heat buildup—no more moldy surf bags.

We’ve designed each bag with stretch and structure for a perfect fit:

• Shortboard: Fits up to 6'2" x 23" wide fish boards or 6'6" x 20" funboards
• Mid-Length: Fits surfboards ranging from 7'0" to 8'6"
• Longboard: Fits 9'0" to 9'6" boards (9'4" with fins, 9'6" without fins)

The adjustable shape contours naturally to your board while maintaining its protective form.

1. What’s the difference between a surfboard knit bag and a board sock?

They’re actually the same thing—terms used interchangeably. Both describe a lightweight, stretchable cover that protects your board from sun damage, wax transfer, and scratches. At Hawaiian South Shore, we’ve upgraded the typical knit bag with added foam padding, a wax-repellent interior, and breathable mesh for UV heat reduction.

2. Can I leave my board in a surfboard knit bag in the sun?

Yes—but only for short periods. Our surfboard knit bags include breathable mesh holes that allow air to circulate and reduce heat buildup. However, prolonged sun exposure can still affect the board over time. If you’re storing it for hours, shade is still best.

3. Does the Hawaiian South Shore board sock provide UV protection?

Absolutely. Our knit surfboard sock features a breathable, triple-layer design with UV-resistant ballistic nylon. It helps protect your board from sun discoloration, wax melting, and resin softening when left in the car or outside.

4. Can I travel with a surfboard knit bag?

Our knit surfboard sock is designed with a low-profile ¼" foam core that makes it easy to fit inside a travel bag for surf trips. While it adds great everyday protection, we recommend pairing it with a padded board bag for air travel, especially when checking boards.

5. What makes this surfboard sock different from others?

Most surfboard socks are single-layer and lack ventilation. Ours is built with a three-layer system:

• Ballistic nylon exterior for durability
• ¼-inch foam for impact resistance
• Coated interior to repel wax
  And breathable mesh holes to help your board dry faster and stay cool.

6. Is the surfboard knit bag washable?

Yes! It’s designed for real use, meaning you can rinse it off with fresh water and let it air dry. Avoid machine drying and hang it in the shade to extend its life.
