Birdwell has been hand-cutting and hand-sewing their shorts in Southern California since 1961. The Classic Cord Short is made from 100% cotton 14-wale corduroy in small batches, featuring their proprietary SurfNyl fly, signature back pocket, reinforced stress points, genuine wood buttons, and an interior drawcord waist. The 7" inseam hits just above the knee. Rinse-washed for softness straight out of the box. The kind of shorts that only get better with age.
