BoardShortsWorld.com - **L O V E Letters**

I recieved my shipment 43470 - the one in which I had to upgrade shipping so that I would receive it prior to my departure to a church kid's camp where I serve as a nurse. I ordered the board shorts for the pool due to my sun sensitivity. I believe that with the coverage of a board short I can protect more skin. The patterns on the website do not give justice to the two great pairs of board shorts that arrived at my door on Saturday morning. I am so excited and thankful that I will be able to protect my skin from the sun which for me really scars it. I can't wait to wear my new board shorts.

Thanks You So much Shipping Hassle and All
Katie (Beaver, PA) RN-BSN

I just received my board shorts today and they are awesome! I have owned and worn many different brands over the years, including the original Hobie Cat, Hang-Ten and O.P. Your shorts are definitely a cut above. They exceeded my expectations. I will definitely return to your store....

Thanks Again, Donald (Mission Hills, CA)

Keep 'em MADE IN USA. I will be back!!!

Charles (San Antonio, TX)

I almost gave up on swimming this year. After a trip to Wal-Mart and the malls I was unable to find American Made swimwear. Thank you, I've recommended you to all on my friends list.

Thomas (East Stroudsburg, PA)

Hi,

Thank you so much for your help with my previous order. I wanted to write to tell you that I absolutely LOVE your shorts! I have never found any as perfect as these and you are correct the length is just right on the LONG. However, the size I ordered (16) is too big (which is a good thing!). I went ahead and ordered a size 14 today online and will just send the size16 back separately as I do need the new ones right away for a trip. My new order # is 43021. Do you think I will have them by the middle of next week?

Thank you so much, and I want you to know you have a forever customer because your product is wonderful and your customer service is fantastic! There are other colors that I like that I will be getting in the future.

Warmly,

~Tammy (San Diego, CA)

I got them today, thank you so very much they are just what I wanted and even better than I expected, I will be living in these all summer kyaking from one end of the state to the other

Siiri (Ada, MI)

Hi Elle,

I responded to your follow-up e-mail before I read this one..THANK-YOU! THANK-YOU! My order was here today when I came in from out of town, everything fits and I love them. You and your team are awesome!! I am not an on-line shopper, so finding your web-site was Divine intervention on a major level. Thank-you for providing your product in plus sizes and bless you for the "custom" options.

You have found yourself a new and forever customer. I work in a very large retail company and I have told everyone about your site, and that was before I even received my order. Your customer service sets a new standard for all.

Thank-you again for making my order a reality.

Debi (Mission Viejo, CA)

I just wanted to let you know I received my boardshorts today, and I could not be happier with them! They fit perfect, they are very well made (in the U.S.) and they were delivered 4 days after I placed my order. I have looked on line and shopped for years, trying to find a pair of boardshorts that fit, and finally, I came across your website – WOW, I have told all of my girlfriends about your company. I will be placing another order for a brown pair, I ordered the Dark Pink for now, which match my top perfectly.

Please feel free to place this under your Love Letters.

Thank you so, so, so much!

Glynn-Ellen (Fort Worth, TX)

Oh, my gosh!

I just got my boardshorts yesterday in the mail and I absolutely LOVE THEM!!! I ordered two different sizes, since I wasn't sure which one would fit, so now what I want to do is return the other one and get another pair!! Is the best way to mail them back, or just reorder the new pair and wait for them? Either way is fine with me! (Judging by all of my exclamation points, I guess you can see how excited I am, huh?) hahaha

Thank you for your excellent service. I am really pleased with my purchase, and I will be a customer for life. I will also HIGHLY RECOMMEND your company to my friends, since we live at the beach, and we are all about the sea and surf!!

Thank you again ~
Betsy (Powells Point, NC)

Please feel free to publish this. I could not be more happy with my blue conga line swim trunk. I am short and a retro fits awesome! I am used to having to get a "normal" suit and then having it hemmed. Which sucks. I love the fact it is made in America which for clothing is VERY rare. I thought it would have a mesh liner but then again I don't guess I need one. Ha Ha. Thanks, would recommend to anyone.

Sincerely,

Mitch (Knoxville, TN)

NOTE from BSW: Mitch inadvertently ordered the elastic waist EZ Boards which are unlined. The Classic Swim Trunk style shorts do have a liner.

I got my custom order board shorts today and they are ABSOLUTELY perfect! I am a big girl and swimsuits have ALWAYS been the worst part of summer for me. Now I will feel confident and comfortable playing on the beach and swimming. Thank you guys so much, if you were here you would see me crying; I am so happy!!
Jen M. (New Mexico)

I just want to thank you again for your great business and product! I received my exchange in the mail today. We leave for Jamaica next week and can’t wait now that I have my new shorts! Thank you, this is my fifth straight year of ordering!!

Jayme (Carroll, OH)

Thanks so much for your prompt service! I received my board shorts last week and they're just perfect and absolutely beautiful! My previous purchases have lasted for years, and I'm sure these will, too.

Sonya (Port Murray, NJ)

I just wanted to inform your Company how much you saved me from embarrassing dressing room trauma in search for the "Perfect" bathing suit/board shorts. I'm not exactly svelte and finding the perfect suit or short is difficult! I received the shorts last night I absolutely fell in love with them. I purchased the black and gray camouflage extra long 10.5 inch board short and the fit was a perfect! Now you can understand the trauma part - no curvy girl likes trying on suits when they are this size(two knee surgeries will do it!) I let everyone know at my work the quality of the garment as well how quickly it arrived in the mail with a great return policy (don't worry I'm keeping these) - keep that manufacturer!!! Trust me I work at a Design school and good quality manufacturing is hard to find! Once again thank you so much, my trip to Puerto Rico in 3 weeks will be more pleasurable now that the suit is shopped for!!!!

Meghan (Sacramento, CA)

Love the personal service. So rare these days. No worries on the timing. Sounds like about 2 weeks door-to-door and that's fine. Happy about the "East of Eden" print since it was one of my first choices. Please send many "We never heard of you either" stickers with my order!

While I have you captive, I'll take the time to say that I liked your site from the start. Having read a National Geographic article on slavery in the modern age, I am pleased to support any company that places integrity above profit.

On top of that you have by far the best fabric selection and the web site is easy to navigate. I had a blast picking out my stuff. Even my mom may be buying some board shorts after visiting the site. I have already recommended your site to a few friends and provided everything fits, I look forward to doing business with you from now on.

Thanks again,

Sara (Mission Viejo, CA)

My husband and I just scheduled a last minute cruise not thinking that we wouldnt be able to find him some board shorts. Considering its still snowing and cold where we live in Utah we werent too surprised when we couldnt find anything in our local sotres. I hadnt heard of your company before so was a little skeptical when i sent my order...but we just got my husbands Xelos in the mail and they are perfect. You have an awesome selection of styles and sizes...The ordering process was soooo easy and my expedited order came just as scheduled. In a town that needs good places to buy board shorts, Ill definitely recommend you to our friends.

Thank You,

Amanda (Orem, UT)

I just wanted to write to let you know how happy I am with my recent board shorts purchases. I had an outstanding order for nearly a year for some skulls boardies that was a source of frustration for me, and I am sure for you as well. I was really happy to return to www.boardshortsworld.com to find that you made a change to your web site that indicates the number of pairs of shorts in stock in a particular size. This is wonderful!!!! Now I know if what I want is in stock before placing an order. I love your board shorts, and will recommend you to all my friends.

Sincerely,

Rebecca (Orlando, FL)

Just wanted to say thank you. I ordered my shorts on thursday and they arrived on Saturday!
Wow!
Thank you for a great product and wonderful service. I will order again!
Ruth (Columbus, OH)

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you so very much for your assistance with the exchange of my board shorts. I received the replacement shorts in the mail yesterday.

I was impressed with your board shorts and even more impressed with your customer service. I've told several people about your help with the exchange and they too are impressed, so much so they will be ordering from you soon. I will continue to order from you as well as recommend you to anyone will listen.

Thank you again. I love the board shorts.
Sincerely,
Jean (Virginia Beach, VA)

I am delighted with your service, your products, and your variety of fabrics. The fit is “true” and very comfortable. Your pricing is competitive, your selection is unmatched, and your website is very user-friendly. I will certainly be ordering from you again.

Sandra (Lake Elsinore, CA)

OMG, love the shorts! 12's are too big though (that never happens!), and our cruise is on the 23rd. So - I'll just re-order them in 10's (and another pair!) and send back the 12's separately for a refund as your FAQs suggest. Just want to be sure I get them in time.

Thanks, can't wait to wear them!

Laurie (Kansasville, WI)

Thank You So Much! for cranking out some of the best boardshorts I have ever worn! The quality and care that goes into each pair of shorts is amazing and the fabric choices that you have just ROCK! Simply Awesome! Thanks again for everything that you do TOTALLY COOL!

Angie W. (Columbus, OH)

You guys are fantastic. I'll be ordering again within the next couple of months, and have already been spreading the word about your killer product, your world-impact ethic, and your stellar customer service. Thanks again for your impeccable service. You're doing something great for women who don't necessarily have the body types of the average 17 year-old but still have style and taste that hasn't gone the way of the "matron" look.

Thank you!

Rachel (Dover, NH)

I did get the first pair - everyone on the cruise to KeyWest was jealous. I need the "Getaway Car" shorts
for my trip to Hawaii - please keep me updated if the shorts will take more than 2 weeks.

Thanks.

Tom (Avon Lake, OH)
I just received my board shorts and they are AMAZING. These are the best board shorts, quality-wise AND fit-wise, I have EVER found...and I have owned numerous pairs. The material is the best quality ever. I will NEVER shop anywhere else. I even sent an email to every woman I know so that they can get a pair of these for themselves. These are a must-have.

Thank you for the excellent service, and the timely shipping. I truly appreciate it since I leave in just a few days! I will definitely be back to purchase more.
Sincerely,
Sunshine (Houston, TX)

Good news, my post office had the other package! I love the items I purchased, the quality is fantastic! Your size charts were right on the money, I took your advice and purchased a size larger than I normally wear and they fit perfectly. Kudos to your company, not only do you deliver a great product but your customer support is personal, friendly and super efficient! It is nice to find a place where those of us who aren't a size 4 can find a great variety of swim wear! I will be doing business with you in the future and so will my friends! Take care and best of luck to you and your company!
Vr,
Kathy (Hollywood, MD)

Hi, I must tell you , I ordered and received 3 pairs of board shorts today and I love hem, I ordered 6 pairs 2 years ago and wore them as bathing suit bottoms with assorted tops every day as I live on the beach in mass, everyone complimented me on them and I am sure they will love the 3 I ordered this week, they wear and wash beautifully, I would like to know if you have them in a gold color, I saw silver, thanks

Alice (Hull, MA)

I was wondering if you received the capris I returned? By the way, I love the shorts! As does my daughter. When I buy clothes that my 20-something daughter likes, that's a miracle.

Hi Steve,

The Fed Ex'd board shorts arrived just a bit ago. They're perfect!! Thanks for pulling this off for me, you saved the day! You guys are awesome!

Kim (North Branch, MN)

Hey Julie!

Thank you sooooo much! I love the shorts. That was very nice of you. This has been a wonderful shopping experience. If there's an owner that I can write to about you, please let me know. If the other order ever shows up, I promise I will send them back to you.

BTW...The stickers are very cool. We put them on our boat! Here's some free advertising for you in Seattle!

Best Wishes,

Lisa (Seattle, WA)

Got the shorts today...thank you so much for all of your help...I LOVE them!!!!!

Cheers,

Heather (Laguna Beach, CA)

Hi, I am a first-timer to your site and all I have to say is THANK GOD GOOGLE FOUND YOU! Over the past four days I have ordered two shipments of 3 pairs of board shorts from another site. I carefully measured everything to make sure things would fit correctly, but with my second shipment... nothing does. Your site is right, they catered to juniors and not women. I have searched and searched the Net and frankly, I don't even know how I stumbled upon you.

So, my question is about the women's triangle top. I was wondering if you could tell me the measurement of the actual triangle for the medium top. Although I am a fit mother of three, my small bikini days on Miami's South Beach are over. I would like full coverage... and I don't know if a medium top will provide that.

I am anxious to place my order, if you could possibly answer this question about the top. Our vacation is right around the corner!

THANK YOU!!! (Unknown)

Hi,

I bought a pair of your long boardshorts last year, and I absolutely love them. I bought a size 20, but
now I'm a bit smaller. Can you tell me the waist size on a size 18?

Thanks so much, I can't wait to order my next pair!
Gretel (Iowa City, IA)

These shorts are BULLET PROOF, just as you said. Over 65 washes, so
far, and exposure to muriatic acid and liquid chlorine. The washing has
actually made them look better! I do have one question, do you have the
same purple color and same material and hopefully same type style that
is shorter? These shorts are great. I hope you remember
my order. I would like to order more, now that I have truly put them
to the test. Thanks for a great product.

John (Sarasota, FL)

Thanks so much! You guys rock!

Adrienne (Glen View, IL)

Hi Steve,

I am practically dancing with happiness over here!

My board shorts are absolutely PERFECT for me! The size 12s are quite big so they hang really low on the hip and nearly come to my knees - like I'm wearing my husbands shorts - and I LOVE them like that.

Can you add another pair in solid black to my order? If the time constraint makes it too difficult to pull off on time - no problem - I'll take the black shorts when you can send them.

Thank you so much! I can't tell you how many times I've tried on a pair of "swim shorts" only to stare numbly into the mirror at the reflection of my Mom looking back at me. Ha! Seriously, it's nice to get decent coverage that doesn't leave you looking like "Grandma!"

And, as appropriate swimsuit offerings for women in between the teen and middle age groups are so few and far in between, I know a good thing when I wear it. It's really valuable to find swim wear that looks both flattering and cool!

You can count on my repeat business. And I'm sure you'll be hearing from my four similarly swimsuit-tortured sisters as well!
Sincerely,

Kelly (Avalon, NJ)

Hey thank you so much! I tried on my board shorts and I absolutely love them! They are so soft and comfortable.

Misty (Sidney, MT)

I'll be patient :) I have stuff I can take on vacation. I've outgrown a pair of your boardshorts and liked them best. I don't love what I have right now, but if the board shorts don't get here in time what I have will do.......and I'll love your boardshorts all summer long once I get them.

Thanks. Any day now is good enough.

Bobbie (Story City, IA)

Just got them. I'm a happy customer. Again.

THANKS!!

Gary (White Bear Lake, MN)

My shorts arrived with perfect timing so I could enjoy them on my trip to AZ. Thank you for getting them out to me when you did. I love them and will be sharing your website with all my friends! They fit so well and I am thankful you have sizes for us bigger ladies. What a blessing and relief. I will be ordering more from you in the future! I am going to look great in my board shorts on my cruise next month when I hit the pool. Thank you!
Sara (Grand Terrace, CA)

Hello, I received my board shorts today and LOVE THEM! I have had an awful time with fit and yours are perfect; waist not too low, exact fit for hips, length and waist. I could not be more pleased. Please tell me the other pair is on the way as I am off for vacation in mid February and must have them.
Great work!
Monti (Grass Lake, MI)

MY NEW BEST FRIENDS.........GREAT STUFF

Robert (Babylon, NY)

Thank you so much! I will definitely be sharing your site with my friends (lots of wakeboarders who love board shorts!)

Lisa (Seattle, WA)

Hi Steve,
I received my shorts yesterday and the fit is PERFECT! They're very comfortable and right in time for lake season and vacation! Thanks again for all of your help and I look forward to doing business with you again soon. My husband wants some of the shorts now.

Sincerely,
Diane (Lake of the Ozarks, MO)

Ok...Great.....go ahead and send the white (Grizzo) and the girls 14's in "Charm School" red. Thank you again for making sure I've gotten this done before my vacation. You are great Julie and if I need shorts again I will definitely be getting them from you :)

Christy (McKinleyville, CA)

W oo Hoo!! I just got my shorts in the mail.....I LOVE THEM!!! I will be buying a black pair in the next couple of weeks. Thanks again for an excellent product.

Dolly (Rogers, AR)

I LOVE my boardshorts and I know some of my friends and family will be ordering from you real soon.

The Jimmy Buffet shorts were a hit in Miami...I was there this past week and I had so many compliments on them! :o)

Amanda (Gainesville, FL)

I am sooo very pleased!

Thank you so much for your excellent product and SERVICE.

These suits will make my Mexico vacation even better.

Oh, and I think I got the "original" length in the black shorts (can't be sure, but they don't have the side pocket like the other ones) - anyway, they fit awesome. They are still nice and baggy but slightly shorter, sportier ("even more flattering" according to hubby) - I LOVE THEM, TOO!

I'll be shopping with you again this Summer. THANKS AGAIN!
Fiona (Lafayette, CA)

Hi, Julie! Just letting you know I received the shorts! They're awsome! Worth waiting for the second pair!!! Thanks again!

Charlene (Laughlin, NV)

Just wanted to say thanks for getting our board shorts to us so quickly and thank you again for working with me on the colors. We love them!

I am looking forward to receiving my next pair in a couple of weeks!

Thanks again,

Jodi from Virginia

Thank you for your call today regarding my recent order. That is a big improvement from last year's customer service!!!! I ordered a board skirt last year (which by the way is perfect!!!) and it took a full month to receive my order. I have however recommended your product to countless others, although I have told them sometimes it takes a while.

Thank you again for your follow up on my order.
Pamela (Indianapolis, IN)

Excellent! Thank you Steve!! We have ordered before and absolutely love your items!

Lisa (Redlands, CA)

Julie those are AWESOME thank you so much for the help. You'll surely be getting my business again !!!!!

Randy (Flagstaff, AZ)

Thanks!! So glad I found you guys, you'll be hearing from me again!!

Linette (Monrovia, CA)

Thank you for your suberb customer service!!

Michelle (Raymond, NH)
