We believe shorts aren’t just clothing – they’re a mindset.
Chubbies Shortts was born on a sticky Chicago summer day when a group of friends realized that too many guys were settling for stiff, boring shorts that didn’t match their personalities. We set out to change that. From our workshop at 324 W 72nd St., we design everyday shorts that blend bold style with the kind of comfort that makes you feel like the weekend started a day early.
Every piece we make is built to move with you – whether you’re grilling in the backyard, exploring a new city, or just kicking back with friends. We obsess over fabric feel, pocket placement, and those little details that turn a pair of shorts into your go-to pair.
Quality without the runaround
We keep things simple: free shipping, free returns, and customer service that treats you like a neighbor. No hidden fees, no red tape – just solid shorts and the support you deserve if something isn’t right.
Community & responsibility
We’re a small team, but we believe in doing things the right way. We partner with suppliers who share our values around fair labor and sustainable materials, and we’re always looking for ways to reduce waste in our packaging and operations. As we grow, so does our commitment to the people who make our gear and the planet we all share.

Follow along on social media for releases, behind-the-scenes looks at the design process, and the occasional poorly shot video of our office dog. We may be biased, but we think life’s just better in a great pair of shorts.
Thanks for being part of the story.
