For the everyday expedition.

Crafted for the curious. Built for the bold. The Arch Rock Shorts carry the spirit of old-world adventure into the here and now. A nod to military utility and outdoor endurance, these shorts are cut from rugged 270gsm Ripstop cotton – a fabric born in the 1940s to serve those who needed clothing that wouldn’t quit. Originally developed for parachutes in WWII, Ripstop’s reinforced grid weave resists tearing while remaining light and breathable – making it a perfect companion for warm-weather wanderings.

The fit is regular, relaxed, and ready. An elasticated waistband with internal draw cords keeps things comfortable, whether you’re scrambling up a trail or navigating city streets. The roomy bellowed side pockets are designed to carry more than just your keys – think notebooks, penknives, maps... whatever you need for the day ahead.

Subtle design cues – like the branded corozo button and LF1 label – lend heritage charm without shouting. The garment dye and vintage wash give the fabric a lived-in look from day one.

Origins:

The Ripstop weave was first introduced in WWII, designed for strength without weight. Its distinctive grid structure stops tears in their tracks – a feature still prized today by outdoorsmen, craftsmen, and pioneers alike. We’ve taken that legacy and adapted it for modern use, combining form and function in a short that’s built to last.
