Premium Fabrics Built to Last
Every pair of Flint and Tinder shorts starts with carefully selected materials chosen for durability and comfort. Our Supima cotton is sourced from American farms and delivers superior strength compared to conventional cotton.
For performance styles, we use technical fabrics with four-way stretch, water resistance, and quick-dry properties. The same attention to construction quality found in our full pants collection carries through to every short we make. We reinforce stress points, use lockstitch seams, and finish each garment to our exacting standards.
Sizing and Fit Guide
Our shorts are designed with a modern fit that sits at the natural waist without excess fabric. Most styles feature a 9-inch inseam that hits just above the knee, though our 10-Year Hoodie Shorts offer a slightly longer 10-inch length.
We recommend ordering your typical waist size. Our shorts run true to size with enough room in the seat and thigh for comfortable movement. If you’re between sizes or prefer a looser fit, size up.
Care Instructions for Long-Lasting Wear
Machine wash all Flint and Tinder shorts in cold water on a gentle cycle. We recommend turning garment-dyed styles inside out to preserve color vibrancy.
Tumble dry on low heat or hang to air dry. Our fabrics are designed to maintain their shape through repeated washing, but high heat can cause unnecessary wear over time.

Questions About Flint and Tinder Shorts
Our shorts run true to size with a modern fit that sits at the natural waist. They’re cut with enough room in the seat and thigh for comfortable movement without excess fabric.
Most customers find they can order their typical waist size. If you’re between sizes or prefer a looser fit, we recommend sizing up. The 9-inch inseam hits just above the knee for most builds, creating a balanced silhouette.
Several of our shorts styles are made in the USA, including the 10-Year Hoodie Shorts and Supima Cotton Shorts. We partner with American manufacturers who share our commitment to quality and fair labor practices.
Our imported styles, like the Traverse Hybrid Shorts, are manufactured to the same exacting quality standards we apply to domestic production. Every pair undergoes rigorous quality control regardless of where it’s made.
Most of our shorts feature a 9-inch inseam that hits just above the knee, which works well for various heights and builds. This length provides good coverage while allowing freedom of movement.
Our performance styles like the Traverse Hybrid Shorts offer a 10-inch inseam for slightly more coverage. The length you choose depends on personal preference and intended use, but both options deliver a modern, versatile look.
Machine wash water-resistant styles in cold water on a gentle cycle, and avoid using fabric softener or dryer sheets, which can compromise the DWR coating.
Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. To refresh the water-resistant finish after multiple washes, tumble the shorts on medium heat for 20 minutes. This heat reactivates the DWR treatment and restores water-repellent performance.
Supima cotton is an American-grown premium cotton that’s 45% stronger and significantly softer than standard cotton. The extra-long staple fibers create a smoother, more durable fabric that resists pilling and fading.
This superior quality means your shorts will maintain their softness and color through years of regular wear and washing. Supima cotton also holds dye better, resulting in richer, longer-lasting colors compared to conventional cotton.
