Zoggs Penrith 17 Inch Shorts Ecodura - Recycled Fabric
Published on 09/23/2026 at 04:06 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWS
Zoggs Penrith 17 Inch Shorts Ecodura are relaxed swim shorts with a 17-inch leg, an elasticated drawstring waist, and pocket storage for pool sessions and vacations. The official Zoggs listing identifies Ecodura fabric as chlorine resistant and made from recycled plastic waste.
Fabric And Fit
The shorts use Ecodura fabric, which Zoggs describes as made from recycled plastic waste. The same specification lists 18 500-mL plastic bottles in every meter of fabric, while the garment keeps a relaxed fit and quick-drying design.
The 17-inch leg gives the Penrith a longer silhouette than brief-style swimwear. An elasticated drawstring waist provides adjustment, and the product description identifies two external side pockets plus a back pocket with a hook-and-loop fastener.
Pockets And Pool Use
Next USA lists the shorts at $45 (as of 09/16/2026) for the green version. The retailer specifies 100% polyester, machine washing, a 17-inch length, two side pockets, and one rear pocket with a hook-and-loop fastening.
A blue Penrith listing at Next USA shows the same $45 price and a product code of F48-616. A separate US Zavvi listing identifies a blue Penrith model at $15.99 on 08/26/2026, with a 100% polyester construction and a rear patch pocket with a drainage eyelet.
Position In Swimwear
Compared with shorter swim trunks, the Penrith uses a longer 17-inch cut and adds three pockets. Compared with the earlier polyester Penrith description, the Ecodura version changes the fabric story by using recycled plastic waste while retaining the drawstring waist and pocket layout.
The shorts suit adults who want relaxed pool and vacation swimwear with adjustable waist control, quick-drying fabric, and storage. The longer leg and casual cut are less suited to swimmers seeking a close-fitting racing brief or jammer.
