We’re lovers of Ripton over here. Their riding jorts, pants, and other creative creations caught our eye when the brand first burst onto the scene in all its denim majesty. Today we’re stoked to share with you a project from Ripton, shot on 35mm film and a short video from a recent California road trip in the Ripton Accord. Watch the video above and read a quick trip report below…

The story of three best friends, roommates, and riding partners with a taste for the finer things. And plenty of dirt on their Ripton jorts…

Just when you thought technical jorts were the craziest thing to come out of the past few years in apparel, Ripton and Co post up their pet project, the Drift Overalls. These are made from the same stretch fabric as their jorts, in a black acid wash finish, and bright yellow, 1.5″ thick elastic straps. These are made in the USA just like their Jorts and are on pre-order now for $179.

Paraphrasing product descriptions seems moot when they’re this good, so I’ll let Ripton take it from here:

“We take one part spark-plug fluid. An unhealthy helping of axle grease. And a macro-dose of brain-bending, jet black acid. Then mix in a five-gallon bucket until the contents resemble ooze spilling from Chernobyl’s long-lost singletrack. Drop in a pair of Ripton tech jorts, top off with a splash of Four Loko, and apply a light smoke. 24 hours later, we unearth our mutated masterpiece: the V3 Black Acid technical denim jort.”

Updated high-rise fit, technical mesh pockets, technical zipper and button.
bluesign® certified
Ripton Steelknit® 38% weft stretch denim
MSRP: $89

Available for men and women at Ripton for pre-order with a December 10th shipment date.

What a world we’re living in. Just the other day I was talking to a friend about riding in Jorts during the Texas summers and he said the only bad thing is the swamp ass… I wonder if he’s seen these Ripton & Co. “Action Jorts?”

These specialty athletic denim jorts are made in Los Angeles and designed to be extremely flexible, breathable, and durable. They retail for $89 and are in stock now for men and women!
