Yes, you heard right—Signature Innovation Group *did* change the length of their Deck Shorts. And yes, it was entirely intentional. If you’ve been riding with us for a while, you already know we don’t believe in change for the sake of change. Every stitch, every silhouette, every small decision is about purpose. So what’s the reason behind this shift? Let’s break it down.

The new Deck Shorts from Signature Innovation Group have gone from a 5-inch inseam to a 6½-inch inseam. A subtle update, sure—but one that makes all the difference. The decision, led by CEO and Lead Designer Jarret Beaudis alongside CMO Chris Miller, was born out of a bigger goal: to empower our customers with silhouettes that *enhance* what they’re already bringing to the table. Clothing shouldn’t be a mask—it should amplify your style, your mood, your moment.

When the Deck Shorts were originally introduced, the design leaned heavily into sportiness—a fit that felt effortlessly cool. That foundation hasn’t changed. But as Signature Innovation Group continues to search for the perfect fits, we’ve taken a moment to rethink how length impacts not only movement, but how one feels in the outfit.

So, why does that 1½-inch extension matter? First, function. More length means more coverage and comfort for mobility—especially for those on the go, living the life they chose. But even more importantly, it’s about *flattery*. A mid-thigh cut enhances the natural shape of the leg, whereas stopping right at the middle of the knee can make your proportions feel off—giving a boring dad cut rather than a cool dad cut.

Signature Innovation Group’s mission is about feeling ready—ready to work, play, or simply show up as your best self. So while the Deck Shorts are still cut to sit just above the knee, the extra length creates a better flow with socks, sneakers, boots—whatever your move is. Whether you're pairing them with a boxy tee or a Mechanic button-up, the updated Deck Shorts now deliver a cleaner, more balanced silhouette that elevates the entire fit.

Our design philosophy has always been about leading with intention. And while the change to our Signature Deck Shorts may seem small, it’s rooted in that same belief: that great style is in the details.

So yes, Signature Innovation Group changed the length of their Deck Shorts—and we think your legs are going to thank us.
