Boardsox is the ultimate solution for protecting your surfboard. Boardsox offers a unique combination of style, and durability with 16 oz recycled RpET canvas which also allows for a snug fit that protects your board from scratches, dings, and sun damage.
Boardsox is committed to making a positive impact on the environment with everything we do and stand for without sacrificing quality or durability.
Lifetime Repairs
We stand behind what we build. If there’s ever a fault in workmanship or materials, we’ll make it right. No runaround. No excuses. Just a brand that backs its gear.
And because real surf gear gets used hard, we also offer lifetime repair support to keep your Boardsox products in action. Instead of replacing it, fix it. Instead of throwing it out, send it back. Built properly. Backed properly. That’s the Boardsox standard.
Our Sustainability Guarantee
At Boardsox, we design with the long game in mind. We don’t make surf gear for one summer, we make it to live in your car, get dragged across carparks, and survive years of salt and sun. Every product is built with durability first, because the most sustainable product is the one you don’t have to replace. Fewer failures. Less waste. More time in the water. That’s how we see it.
We believe surf culture should protect the ocean, not add to its problems. So we focus on strong construction, quality materials, and practical design that solves real surfer problems. Buy once. Use it for years. That’s sustainability done properly.

Serious about your sport? Doubt it if you’re not wearing this on your schnoz. High-performance protection for high performers.
The Tan Zinc Stick SPF 50+ is a visible, tan-tinted barrier cream made with naturally-derived zinc oxide – designed to stand up to sweat, surf, and sun without breaking a sweat itself. Whether you’re clocking long hours in the water, running drills under a scorcher, or chasing swell from dawn to dusk, this stuff stays on and works hard.
Formulated for serious outdoor conditions, it provides SPF 50+ broad spectrum UVA & UVB protection and visibly coats the skin to help you see exactly where it’s been applied. It won’t sting your eyes, won’t run down your face, and won’t disappear mid-session.
Made in Australia and backed by decades of sunscreen expertise, this is your no-fuss, no-slip solution to high-exposure sun care.
