In the 1950s Katin co-founder, Walter Katin sat at his sewing machine and made the very first pair of Katin trunks - the Waterman Trunk. Since its inception, the iconic silhouette remains in our trunk collection and pays homage to Walter Katin and his unparalleled craft. The Waterman Trunk has since led the way as America's first surf trunk.
Each pair of Katin trunks also comes complete with an original Katin banana boat float keychain.

"When I was a teenager, I had the same kind of board shorts. They were fantastic. This pair is just as good if not better. Excellent fit, excellent stitching and craftsmanship. Just great, I couldn't be happier I bought these."
"Classic old school look and feel. Takes me back a couple decades. Currently working on erasing 10-year old tan lines from the long-short era."
"These are great!! A bit warmer than canvas when out of water in the sun, but absolutely durable and made to last. Can handle the river, ocean and chlorine."
"they seem well-made but I still want MADE IN THE USA . . my old pair seem better quality . may be my bias . . i will be brutally honest im switching to BIRDWELL. . . yes they are more expensive but i believe in buying AMERICAN"
"outstanding vintages look great material great fit perfect length highly recommended no doubt, no snaps !!"
"I finally found a swim trunk like they used to make. I'm 64 years old. Still active. This is a great short that is very high quality"
"My only complaint is that the camo pattern is still sold out in my size 😂 Honestly, just spend the money. You won’t regret it. Buy once, cry once. These last forever, will take a beating surging or boating or fishing or literally anything else in the water."
"Nice trunks. Sizing is on the large size and if you try to return or exchange they charge you $8 shipping both ways."
"Love em!! Great quality, dries fast and very comfortable. I WAS a Birdwell guy until now. Will be ordering more."
"New Favorites. I am not exaggerating when I say that those are the best pair of trunks I’ve ever had. Worth every penny!"
