Krunkie is an independent Newport Beach clothing brand founded by Matt Chabot, making comfort-first beach shorts, unmistakable snapbacks, and performance golf hats.
Contact MattThe short version
Built because the usual options missed.
Matt wanted light, flexible swim shorts without scratchy mesh, a tight compression liner, or awkward wet cling. Krunkie beach shorts use a loose-fitting nylon inner liner to create separation while staying comfortable after the water. The same product-first approach carries into the brand's snapbacks and performance golf hats.
